So this bronchitis thing.

Been on the z pac for three days now, two more to go.

I'm still having coughing fits so bad my asthma triggers.

I'm having them 3-4 times a day.

A. Day.

Rescue inhaler helps, as does the breathing techniques Chezzie taught me, but in the last two days I've had to park calls because I can't talk.

I'm going to the doctor tomorrow morning, see if I can't get a better handle on this. I'm pretty sure it's only because of the illness and once that's cleared from my system, I'll settle back down. Coughs can last for weeks after an infection is killed, at least in my family.

I, for one, am heartily sick of spending all day with that tightness in the chest and occasional pains in my lungs when I climb one bloody flight of stairs.

Damned asthma.
