I'm so sick!

Ugh! Bronchitis is NOT fun. :cry:

I started coughing last Wed night, didn't sleep that night, slept most of the day on Thurs. Felt a little better on Friday so tried to do some stuff between coughing fits. Spent all day Sat sleeping between coughing fits, then went to friends to play cards Sat night. Spent all day Sunday sleeping - with no coughing! So I thought I was past the hurdle.

Finally gave in and went to the dr's yesterday. Yikes! 8O I came home with a breathing treatment machine that I have to use every 2 hours, and an Advair nebulizer, and a scrip for Zithromax. I'm starting to feel better now that I can't hear my chest wheezing. Dale says he doesn't think he has seen me so sick in all the time he's known me!! :roll:

Just needed to vent because I'm not used to feeling so helpless. Gotta go - time for my next breathing treatment. :roll:

Sorry to hear you are ill. I have been taken by our hot to suddenly cold weather. I have a sinus infection that have been no fun. Take care of yourself, enjoy the holiday and get well soon. :D
Ughhhhhhh... I've seen how miserable that can be!!! :(

lil J sends a big wet kiss (not sure they contain any less slobber than yuki's)
Oh dear, Chris!! Bless your heart. I feel your pain. When I do get sick, it seems it's almost always that blasted bronchitis. It's awful. Take care of yourself, the last time mine turned into pneumonia. :evil: Take all your meds & breathing treatments so you can get better and enjoy the holidays! :D
I hope you get better soon!
You poor thing!!!!

Rest and fluids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stay in bed and stay warm!
ugh I'm sorry to hear it- bronchitis is the worst!!! I had it two years ago and coughed so hard I pulled a muscle in my stomach so I had double the pain everytime I coughed.

Feel better soon!
:(

Being sick is a pain in the rear. Hang in there.
Poor Chris! I hope you feel better soon! It sounds like you have all the necessary equipment!
[in my best Sherman Hemsley voice]

Hey Weezie! 8)



WEEZIE?!? 8O

Feel better sooooooon!
Oh ICK! Once you have bronchitis, it is so hard to throw the cough. While it sounds like over medical treatment, hitting it like this may save you months of coughing.
Oh Poor Chris!!!

Feel better and yes to lots of liquids!! Try to be a good patient...

I like vicks vapor rub up into my sinus cavity too....that seems to help...
Jimminy Crickets!!!
It must have been that Farm Show air. That stuff will kill you!!

Hope you feel better soon!
Bronchitis is the worst. The only time I've had it I thought was gonna die. No really, I thought I would cough up a lung. But it got me to stop smoking for 6 months. Restrestrest. And rest some more. Take your drugs and do your breathalator. And rest.

Make Dale serve you meals in bed. Because you need to rest.
Poor Chris! Get better soon! :ghug:
Thanks, everyone! :lol: I appreciate the well wishes. I hate sitting home doing nothing, but I guess I have no choice.

The coughing fits are downright scary! My ribs are SO sore and it's frightening to hear these sounds coming out of me! I'm surprised I haven't moved organs around inside me with the force of the coughs. :roll:

Yep, just call me Weezie. Sounds weird to hear my chest whistle as I exhale! :roll:

I just hope I never get this again!!
You poor thing!!! Hope you are feeling better. That stuff is nothing to mess around with!


:ghug: :ghug: :ghug: :ghug:
Geez!! Hope you feel better soon, not fun. :cry:
ouch! that sounds miserable. hope you feel better soon. :ghug:
Get better soon!!!!

Todd just had some horrid crud. He was better and I hadn't got it. Thought I was home free. NOT!!!
Now I am coming down with it. I hope it isn't bronchitis or anything like that. Antibiotics and my IBS are not a good combination. :roll:
I'm sorry you're sick :( . I could send Gabe and Jonah to help you get better :D but maybe the meds and sheepie cards will work too.
:ghug: Rest and fluids. Also, when you start feeling better Don't overdo it! It takes a while to recover when you've been very sick! :plead:
Awww chris not happy hearing you are unwell. Sending lots of these :ghug:

Chicken soup or you can jump on a plane and visit us in sunshine :wink:

Get well soon, rest and take it easy or pack the suitcase and visit :D
Sorry you are so sick, Chris! :(
I hope you are feeling better really soon!
Take it easy and rest.
Having just recovered from some nasty virus myself, I can really understand how you feel. I'm a terrible sick person too!

I hope you are feeling much better soon. Follow your doc's instructions, and have lots o'chicken soup!!!!
:ghug:
Sorry your sick and hope you feel better soon :)
I get this almost every year - bed rest and chicken soup. I find I sleep better with a vaporizer on at night - day too when I am really bad. It ends up aggrevating my asthma and I often end up on steroids, try not to over do anything!
Hope you feel better soon! I wish I could find something better to say but am at a loss for words and everyone here has given you the best advice.

Wheezie...that's too funny Ron!
