*cough hack*

Apparently i have asthmatic bronchitis. Now i don't have asthma but whatever this bronchial thing is, i'm not happy with it lol I did go to work today and wasn't *too* bad while i was sitting down but when i'd move around, go to the loo or into the mall to get my bus pass, my legs would feel a little wobbly and i would get very wheezy and coughing. Well at least they could tell in the office that i wasn't faking anything. I decided to go to the doctor this afternoon though, because though it's somewhat better than the weekend, it's not really significantly better. He gave me a puffer and some antibiotics and a note to stay off the rest of the week. Gives the meds a chance to kick in.

As it is, i have a meeting on Friday evening for the local Corrie committee. We've got the Corrie star event back for March 4 and it's going to be the bloke that plays Ashley Peacock. He'll be at the British Isles Show in Toronto that weekend after that and he will be stopping off here first. We've had this type of "add on" to the British Isles Show a few times in the past though we didn't get it this year. It's great that we are going to put on the event next year but there's a lot of work to organizing it.

Ooooh, I had that once, a long time ago. It was nasty. The puffer helped a lot and it cleared up pretty quickly after I got the meds. Hope you feel better soon!

THanks. I seem to get colds that go bronchial a lot more since i had a really bad chest flu when i was away in the UK in 2003. And here i had my flu shot at the end of October! I guess whatever strain of whatever i have bypassed the shot serum!

Stay warm and dry and get rest! This is a bad time of year to get bronchial stuff.

Thanks, yes it's quite damp and cold but then, that fresh air does still feel good.

I have a friend with the same thing. It is rough. She's got a ventolin puffer to open the airways and a steroid puffer to heal them. Did you get both? H gets asthma every time she gets a cold. It is hard. When she was little we spent more than a few nights at the IWK.

Just one puffer, advair. It would be the steroid kind.
