Wow! I'm sorry about your pneumonia! Lack of insurance is the exact reason why I am staying away from the Doc in the Box. I don't want to pay $175 so I can be told I'm overweight and I have a cold. <br /><br />Emergence is a godsend! I'm not exactly sure it works, but it tastes great! (Now only if i could get paid for that last line). I am taking Mucinex and it seems to be working OK. Have you tried that? Hot toddy's are working as well. Try: 1 shot of rum (or whiskey), 1 tsp honey, a squeeze of lemon and your favorite tea (I like peppermint). And viola! It's soothing, tames the cough and makes you forget you were even sick if you drink enough!Spankyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11336136519432986455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2204172542013557435.post-83267409552544520702010-03-20T00:38:26.404-07:002010-03-20T00:38:26.404-07:00I'm glad I'm not the only one with a poor ...I'm glad I'm not the only one with a poor immune system but I think I have you beat. I started getting sick after Christmas...just before starting a new temp job the first part of January, was able to kick it before starting...then a couple weeks after starting I started coughing up green gunk. After getting pneumonia last year I immediately went to the doc in the box to get some antibiotics so it didn't turn into pneumonia again (I've heard once you've had it it is easier to get now). Antibiotics worked to kick it then less than a month later I start with the couging again (knowing I couldn't afford another $250 trip to the doc since we don't have insurance) I was taking meds like crazy and sleeping trying to get better. Felt better after a week or so and this week started in with the head congestion junk. I stayed home one day from work and literally slept all day long just to keep from getting any worse. I'm so sick of not being well and I don't think I've ever been sick this frequently before. We've been doing the Emergence stuff everyday for the last month or so, I've taken Echinachea, Zinc, Vitamin C, A, D....holy cow, I don't know what else to do but live in a bubble.Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02892977733659146355noreply@blogger.com
