Yeuch. I hate being unwell, and so it was delightful for me to be coughing so hard last night that I threw up, not once but three times. I think I've picked up a throat infection from somewhere, which would also explain why my voice will go croaky at the most inopportune moment...

I'm faced with the possibility of having to actually go to the doctors if this doesn't clear up, for the first time in I have no idea how long. Three years? Four? Pffft.

I hate to get all nurse-y on you, but I'm a nurse.... I can't help it. If you are coughing so hard that you are vomiting you really ought to go see a doctor. That's a symptom of pertussis (whooping cough) or it could be pneumonia, too. It's best to get it checked out. You should probably be on antibiotics.

Okay, shutting up now.

It's the persistent phlegm that's doing it - once I start coughing, that's it... pfffft.

Anyway, doctor's appointment Friday morning.

{{{hugs}}} I can't believe they're making you wait until Friday for something like this, though. That seems a long time to let it go.

How do you know you're really sick if you go rushing to the quack every 5 minutes? ;)

I wouldn't do that. Until recently, I hadn't been to the doctor in over five years--not even for a physical or anything. But what you have sounds serious enough to warrant an emergency visit, that's all. *g* I was just surprised that they didn't try to fit you right in or have you go to a clinic that takes patients 24/7 or something like that.

Well, throwing up means it's bad - and three years isn't a bad time for doctor's visits. Go, get it checked out. :-)

And get well!

Hope you get well, and once every three years is not that bad.

Get better soon!

Go to the doctor! I had a similar coughing/throwing up thing happen a few years ago, and it was walking pneumonia. Go. Now.

Drugs will help.

Sorry to hear you're unwell. Sounds like a particularly horrid bug. Why not make a doctor's appointment straight away, then if you get better meantime you can always cancel?

Would you believe Sainsburys are selling them now? If only I had a microwave I'd be severely tempted...

sounds like me with bronchitis...

It won't go away on it's own. GO TO MEDICS NOW OR IT WILL BE HOSPITAL NOT MEDIC IF YOU LEAVE IT!!!!

Cause I'm not going to connotations alone :P
