Slight chest congestion. NOOOO!

Woke up this morning and noticed a little phlem in my throat/top of lungs that comes up when I growl. . I wouldn't be AS worried about missing my surgery in 3 days if It wasnt a mx surgery with a 550.00 flight that leves on Friday march 1st.

Please pray for me and tell me what I can do to prevent it from getting worse or to make it go away! Please! I've been waiting on this moment since last may and ill be crushed if this doesn't work out for me! I'm so darned excited and I seriously doubt dh would let me spend on a flight again. He's also already gotten his time off, etc

I personally am snowed in with 6 kids home from school, but my dh can run to the store for anything that might help. Or I can try to get to the dr or something.

I wonder if my stress is compromising my health. :(

  • Yep. What TheGamer said! Keep up the liquids as much as you can handle will help. Will send good vibes your way!

  • If you're getting anything in like Soup or broth, just add it to that. Sriracha ftw!

Thanks for the well wishes! The dr. Called in some stuff today. Gonna call the surgeon to make sure it's ok to take.

I have chipotle chili pepper, dry. Should I eat it by the spoonful? Ha. I'm only half joking! I'm willing to do anything just about!

Vitamin C, also on the list for dh.
