coughing
Thank you! I went to the ER and they just gave me mucinex and tessalon which I already had and has done nothing! I've been drinking tea and honey like crazy! Only thing that does help is a hot shower but as soon as I get out, I start coughing again! I hate that it depends on the doctor because when the nurse was explaining the prescriptions he said if I wasn't pregnant, I could have got Tylenol with codeine, but last time I was pregnant I got Tylenol 3 for my back!
Try reading the articles at whyquit.com. If you understand your addiction and try to work on the "whys" then it will be that much easier to quit.
The withdrawal is 72 hours, 3 days but more than the physical aspect you will have to deal with the emotional addiction which is the toughest. If you know why you smoke and work on it, then it helps a great deal.
The most important part of the quit though is wanting to do it.
I also have an on my feet job and I'm 25 weeks now. I plan to work till I'm physically unable- that's what I tell my clients whenever they ask how long I plan on working. Unless my midwife instructs me to stop any sooner, I'll work up till as close to my due date as possible, again as long as I am physically able. Just take breaks and sit every chance you get, even if it's just for 5 minutes.
What can you do to stop working, mine is from new work done on the bldg I work in.
I been coughing for the past 6 months, nothing hurts, I am also able to sleep at night without coughing, however, when I speak to someone the cough comes back and I probably cough about 100 times a day if not more. I already took Antibiotics and Serum for the emergency room at the hospital, but the cough continues to linger. I am worry about what me now.
It is trial and error as to what will work best for us and the only way to know if they will work is to try them. But don't give up and never try to wean yourself off of these types of drugs. This requires carefull monitoring by your doctor with you on a weaning off schedule. When we try to do it on our own it creates more problems for us and we think it's the medicine's fault when it's us not weaning off properly.
I am so glad I ran across this forum. Has anyone found a cure for this horrible life changin cough yet? My story is just like all the stories I've read in this forum so there is no need me repeating what I am going through. This has been going on for 5 months. I can't take it anymore. I can't talk without coughing and am peeing all over myself. I have to wear diapers 24/7. I have not insurance and no job so I can't go to all the specialist that can help me.
I try putting up a fan, blow it inward or outward to circulate the air, it makes no difference. I have no right to stop my co-workers from smoking. Is there anything I can do to get rid of the smell (other than quitting my job) ? Is smelling their smoke something abnormal ? Is smelling a smoker's smoking body odor hazardous to my health (such as can it cause cancer )?
Thanks.
I work retail and am on my feet for 6-10 hours each day. I am 35 weeks currently and still going. It's a lot of work and I'm starting to feel the affects from it, but I'm still going at it. I'm hoping to work until I go into labor unless my dr tells me otherwise. I would see what your dr wants you to do and see if they feel like you can continue to work.
I stopped going to clubs, shows, movies and restaurants because everyone seemed to be coughing around me. Doctors were useless and looking at me as if I were crazy. My nutritionist ordered vitamin tests and my GP ran them. I was found to have an insufficiency of Vitamin D--- this appears to have afffected my immune system. The good news was I got my saliva back and my bad breath improved, but I still had the coughing going on in my classroom.
Hi there...so sorry to hear you're having such painful headaches!
I was diagnosed in 2008, with a 4mm herniation on my first MRI. I had a HUGE work up from a reputable place that treats Chiari. On their MRI, 4 months later, my herniation was at 8mm. I believe each MRI is different due to who is reading it & where you have it done. I'm 5 weeks post op from my 2nd Chiari surgery. My headaches have NEVER been brought on by coughing or sneezing. However, laughing definitely does!
hi sounds like a chest infection Please see your family Dr for a course of antibiotics ,
With no other symptom, it is either an irritant cough due to allergy to something or it is due to postnasal drip if you have sinusitis like problem. Other than that it could be due to a severe gastric reflux. Take a late night snack. Raise head end of bed. Take Omeprazole empty stomach in morning and an antacid gel at bedtime. Refrain from smoking, alcohol, fuzzy drinks and spicy food. See if these tips help you.
It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage.
Honestly it's all depending on your health and how you feel working. Some people don't like to go too close, or can't work after a certain time. I had a coworker who was past her due date, claiming to have contractions and didn't go in to the hospital until her shift was done. With her first kid.
I'm gonna have to work as long as I can cuz I don't get paid time off, and I work elections, and we have one when I'm due.
Just to ensure things, I even had a remote audio monitoring set up, so that I could listen to the office, streaming live to my PC back at home. And still nothing, no coughing and sneezing at all. A few conversations and some laughs, that's all I could hear.
Now sitting at home, it does give me a peace of mind, free from listening to all the coughing, sneezing, clearing throats, vomiting (sometimes) at the office.
I thought i was sick with sinus infection then a cold. Then it came down to me stop breathing multiple times and coughing horribly. So i made a doctor's appointment and my doctor diagnosed me then just yesterday. Im worried i wake up because i feel myself stop breathing and choking . Is this something i have to worry about for my entire life im only 18years old. I need a little bit more information please help.
You may want to see an allergist and have some tests done to see if you are allergic to something that is causing this post nasal drip (PND) and then the cough ... so sorry to hear you are enduring this.
