Yuck-that’s all I can say! I’ve been coughing and spluttering for weeks now, but it’s getting worse and worse, so I’ve told work not to expect me in for a few days so I can try and recover. I took a course of antibiotics about 2 weeks ago but might as well have wiped my arse with them for all the good they did.
I’ll go back to the dr’s on Wednesday and maybe they can give me something else. In the meantime, because I am still breast feeding, there’s bugger all I can actually take to ease this.
Anyone reading this who knows of any miracle and breast feeding- safe cure MUST pass it on!!!
The kids came down with this too but are both much better. Ricky only got it very mildly but still lays it on with a trowel every time he is asked how he is. Even though he’s now fully recovered, he says “I’m not well. I’ve got a weee cooooooold”, and gets the “man-flu” look on his face, the one we women all know only too well! Robbie is still a bit snuffly but is his usual cheery self.
Ian- despite smoking like a train and having less-than-healthy lifestyle, is perfectly fine as ever and didn’t get even the slightest trace of it. There is no justice!
So, my plan is to go home, complain noisily to everyone who is willing to listen about how sick I am, and then take it easy for a day or two. Well, men always make a scene when they are sick, why not me too??? :-p
