I'd only been asleep for twenty minutes at most, but woke up coughing so badly I was unable to breathe and was gagging. Sips of water, and inhaling steam and my mum's puffer (ok, we occasionally self-prescribe around here, don't look at me like that) and I can breathe as well as I could earlier in the evening (ie still not that great).

Now I don't want to go back to sleep in case it happens again.

Also - couldn't I have got sick when dad did? He's basically over it, my sister's almost there, but mum's still stick too. I'm going skiiing Sunday-Tuesday, I'm gonna be keeling over even more than my complete unfitness would cause whine whine whine

Throat infections really seem to be doing the rounds. i got mine from my sister (who was the barking seal for a week). I'm getting better after a week of it.

We do the self prescribing too. I've been known to use my brother's puffer when I used to get the really severe throat infections, and my mother was a forerunner on the now standard croup treatment.

Look after yourself.

My entire family has been sick in the last two weeks or so, and half of work has as well. Now that I've succumbed, I wish I had sooner so I could be getting better already *g*.

It's always the way itsn't... you live with people who are merrily passing around their germs but don't get sick until you have something on. Feel better soon Hon!
