Been wondering how you are with this wretched flu. Do hope you are well on the up. Good to see you back. cheers Penny.

Hi Penny.
I've had it nearly 4 weeks now. I thought I was getting a bit better but have now developed a cough which has me awake half the night.
The doctor tells me I haven't got a chest infection so there's no medication she can give me. She took my temperature & said it was a bit high - I could have told her that! I feel feverish and altogether wrecked.

Just got to rest/keep warm/hot drinks etc. That's what I'm doing.

Thanks for thinking of me penny.

Just for the record Penny isn't the only one, Carol!

One of my heart meds is notorious for causing a night time cough. We were recommended to use "Soothers" (but no prescription!). About 3 in 5 of my rehab group found them effective, so not foo'proof but nothing to lose Carol '. I've always got a pack in m bedside drawer.

So pleased Carol to hear from you. With all this flu and sickness going round I was getting worried. Do hope your OH is coping OK. My friend in USA says this flu is ripe over there too. Anyway, do take care, miss you and your posts. cheers Penny

Hope you start feeling much better soon, Carol.

Hope it clears soon Carol, they are so hard to shift at this time of year.
Ramipril is one of my medications that makes me cough and cough Laurie, apparently its got a reputation for causing this problem but there is also others which cause the same problem too.

That's the one Dita
