Had a guinea pig...it started bothering my allergies...I got yucky sneezies and post nasal drip...I developed a cough...couldn't sleep because of said cough...gave away the guinea pig...cough still lingered...didin't improve despite the allergy medicine, decongestant, and cough syrup...went to the doctor....OH NO!...I developed bronchitis...am sitting at home...was told to avoid stairs...I have to take asthma medicine, allergy medicine, a cough suppressant pill, and antibiotics...been drinking lots and lots of herbal tea...my first sock is almost done...I understand short rows...I can pick up stitches...cough is easing up...I slept the WHOLE night through
