Cough that won't fuck off (1 Viewer)

More importantly does Monkey Doctor make house calls?

Yeah I didn't read the whole thread... or care to.

That there, is your first problem. Why stick your oar in if you're not bothered reading the fucking thing. Ignorant.

Doubtful.

You need a cough suppressant but I'd be hesitant to suggest you just go off to the pharmacy and get one without seeing a doctor first. I think you should find out what is causing it before you treat the symptoms as the coucghing could be a warning sign. A dry cough could be caused by anything from a viral illness, bronchospasm, allergic reaction, inhalation of dust, fumes or chemicals... or worse... you are after all a smoker.

Let me put it like this, if you were to call a doctor and tell them your symptoms over the phone they'd still ask you came in so they could examine you and rule out anything serious. So spend the €50, go to a good doctor, and make sure it's not something worse.

Yeah, you need to get out more.

Hey you're welcome.

Sorry I gave a shit. Last time I'll make that mistake.

3 out of 4 in my family have had a cough on and off since we had swine flu in Nov. Mostly it's dry, though sometimes a bit of phlegm comes up. I wish I wish I wish it would go away

There was no swine flu here to my knowledge but the missus has had this since November and I developed it in December. No sign of shifting. She went to GP a few weeks ago and he said it was "just a cough, probably something viral, not much you can do about it.". It's getting me down 'cause if she still has it, and I'm about 4 weeks behind her, stands to reason I'm looking at another 4 weeks of it, at least. Night before last I woke the baby at 4 am in a coughing fit. Not pretty, I can tell you.

Yeah, it's what I was told the other night. I didn't have swine flu either, even had the vaccine so I wouldn't get it. Yours sounds worse than mine though. I'll be fine for an hour or two then I will have a coughing fit. It's worse when laying down and in the morning but it is going away. Hope yours clears up soon.

Sounds like the title of a Metallica song

A friend of my Dad makes up his own cough bottle. Apple cider vinegar, honey and a shitload of garlic. Tastes a bit foul but it works, and it will keep the vampires away too.
