I awoke this morning fighting off a stuffy nose, sore throat and cough and has progressively gotten worse in the day and now the night. Really coughing now and stuffed up. Am I mistaken or misread somewhere but doesn't the drainage tighten the band? I promise not to spread germs.

It can so be careful with what and how you eat

Feel better soon Donna!

Hope u get well soon! You have such a sweet spirit!

Try and stay on liquids, light Soups & Protein shakes, SF popsicles, SF jelly while you pass your sickness. I took mucinex dm during my sniffles and it helped me 200 percent. I notice a liquid form of Mucinex DM that might make it easier to take. I cut my Mucinex pills in half to swallow them.

Best wishes and prayers for a speedy recovery.

Oh no! That's terrible. Nothing worse than getting sick while trying to heal yourself. Get better soon!

thank you all for the well wishes and suggestions. I feel worse this morning, so stopped up and my cough is worse. I am headed to the dr for hopefully to get something for the cough. I will be on mushies and soft foods as I certainly don't want to get stuck. Thanks again.

Donna

Donna praying you are feeling better!!!

thank you Stephanie for the prayers. I didn't make it to church this morning as I didn't want to make everyone else sick. My coughing has gotten worse and I had to go back to the clinic last night and get a shot for vomiting because my antibiotic was making me sick, so they stopped my antibiotic and gave me a shot for nausea and a shot of Rochephin (sp?). I am feeling somewhat human tonight other than my coughing. Hope to feel like getting out tomorrow. My eating has been out of control today for some reason. Started out with a Fiber One bar, then a small Wendy's chili with 4 crackers, 4 pcs of white chocolate bliss, dinner was about a half cup of fresh turkey salad and 4 crackers and one triangle of low fat skinny cow cheese spread and just now I had a low fat string cheese. I feel like a cow seeing what all I ate now but I'm hungry as I'm typing this. sheesh. But it's been almost 6 hrs since I ate. Guess I will head to bed and forget about eating...lol

Donna,

Glad you have an appetite! Get better soon!

Poor you Donna, you've been through the finger these last few days. I hope you get better quickly.
