Fall Colds and Cough

Besides all the stuff that is causing my husband a great deal of misery from allergies, now he has caught a cold. He is feeling quite miserable and weak. We have some good cough syrup that has helped him sleep well. That is one good thing. However, now he just came and told me he should see our doctor so I am calling the doctor to see if I can get him in to see her. He has such a deep cough and seems to be getting worse this afternoon.

Flu, Colds, Fever and Chills

My husband has been sick for 9 days with a cold. He has fever or chills almost every day and an awful cough. We tried some stuff from the pharmacy which helped some but I think it is one of those things you just have to wait out. I hope he is feeling stronger soon. He exercises 30 minutes every day but has been holding it down to 10 minutes until he gets over this. We have heard of others suffering from the same thing.

What do You Do for a Cold?

I called the pharmacist and asked what you could take to make a cold less miserable? My husband caught a cold somewhere, probably in church Sunday, shaking hands and there were a lot of people coughing. He can feel it in his chest. The pharmacist recommended Mucinex. You take one and it lasts 12 hours so I got some of that. I hope it helps him. He feels pretty rotten. When I came out of their driveway, the "tire Pressure" light dinged at me and I checked the dash and sure enough so drove to the local place where we got our new tires this fall. He checked and the passenger front tire and driver rear tire were both down 10 lbs. The two on the opposite corners were both down 5 lbs. It is because of all the changes of temperatures we have had. They say you should be sure and check your tires often when temperatures change because tire pressure change too and it takes more gas if they aren't filled the way they should be and with the price of gas going up, it is an easy thing to do to save on gas and easier on your tires too.

Colds and Flu

My husband is getting over his flu he got from his flu shot, but he is pretty weak yet. He walks on our Gazelle for 15 minutes, twice a day, but he found he couldn't make it very long this morning. And now he's got a cold. I don't know where that came from but he is coughing and runny nose and the works. I need to get to the store later and get more tylenol too. It helps with the aches and pains. I put sheet blankets on the bed this morning. That should make it warmer but he uses the electric blanket all the time now too. I think we are about due to get another new electric blanket.
