I am so sick, my chest is so congested, I've been coughing up yucky for 2 days now. It hurts. Make it stop. Thank you.

I know how you feel, I'm sick too, the doc said I have bronchitis, but it feels more like a truck running over my chest.

I've been taking nyquil, dayquil, and an expectorant.

Thanks for the hugs.

Denise, can you get to somewhere that has essential oils? If so, get some camphor, even just smelling it will help you, also put it in places that you would put Vick's Vapo Rub. Peppermint and Chamoille tea will help you as well. {{{{{Denise}}}}}}}

Hmm... I actually have some Vicks vapo-rub stuff around here somewhere. I thought it was just for stuffy nose, though. But if it will help with this congestion, I'll try anything!

Now, just to get tsquared to come over & rub it on for me... :eek:

{{{denise}}} My little one has something nasty as well, don't know what (maybe a spring cold, or maybe just allergies - if it's just allergies, I'm dropping him and his snot off at his grandmama's, lol) - I feel for you, in a minor empathetic way;)

Hope you feel better soon:)
