IT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!! I have already tried mucinex and it didn't work. It will come up little by little but it will not end. I need a simple, effective, way to get it out.

I was a frequent smoker before (7 to 10 a day).But now I smoke 1 or 2 a week. Does that really hurt me? I have high cholesterol and triglycerides. I just want to know how bad it will effect my body?

I've been coughing the past few days: a croup-like cough that produces yellow mucous. It is accompanied by a sore throat, minor difficulty breathing, fatigue, rattling in my chest when I breathe, and mild fever. Someone at work had a similar infection, and I assumed viral bronchitis. I went to the doctor, who listened to my lungs and declared I had sinusitis because I had sinusitis around the same time last year. The doc out me on steroids and an antibiotic. I'm pretty sure I don't have sinusitis, but I'm not sure if I need a second opinion. Do I?

Hi everyone!

Yeah, my doctor diagnosed me with GORD is that GERD? Anyway, I am taking Nexium for it. I am having a flare-up for the past 4 days. I think it was the juicing that triggered off my symptoms again! I was doing OK for a month and then I went onto juicing and it started up. I think I have to wait for it to die down and take good care of myself. I am exercising (trying to lose a few pounds) and eating relatively healthy now. I didn't eat unhealthy to begin with but my diet could do with a bit of changing. But I have to stay away from acidic/spicy foods and drink. I can't drink coffee anymore (I used to) and I can't drink wine (I used to) and I can't eat whatever I want to anymore! Sucks a bit I guess but I'll get used to it. My stomach is still burning slightly but I do have PMT can that also contribute? Might huh! Right before I get my cycle my body plays up. I am a 28 year old relatively healthy female.

so i got sick from my cousin last week and i thought it was getting better but i woke up and the lower part of my throat hurts sooo bad i cant cough and it feels tight, as if there is something in there. could my throat be swollen from forcin myself to cough or could it be from breathing through my mouth when i sleep?

The last three weeks I've had bronchitis and a sinus infection but am on the tail end of my second round of antibiotics. All syptoms are gone EXCEPT my nasal passages closing when I lie down at night. My left is the worst culprit. I've already had surgery for a deviated septum and this wasn't happening before I got sick. Up to last night, I had taken Afrin (which is lovely) for about 5 nights (none during the day) but I know you're not supposed to take it more than 5 days or your sinuses become dependant on it. I didn't sleep at all last night from dry-mouth and snoring myself awake (dont normally snore either). Nothing is draining from my sinuses (for instance when I blow my nose) and they open back up (at least partially) when I get up. Any ideas on what I can do? Due to the severe nature of my bronc/sinus infection I've already spent over $200 between dr visits and meds. I realllly dont want to go back if I dont have to.

Hi there,
I've had this condition for about 2 weeks now. It started with a runny nose, then about 3 days later I got a sore throat which was not really bad and my lymph nodes got really swollen as well. I kept getting a runny nose in the morning and before going to sleep at night, at a day time it wasn't really bad. For these past 2 weeks I did not have any fever though. After about a week I went to a doctor and she prescribed an antibiotic which I've been taking for a week and today was the last day. Even though I still have a sore throat still and also this dry cough which started about 5 days ago. Also I noticed for the past 10 days or so I've been sweating a lot at night and it never happened to me before, not unless it was really hot. Also today I got a result of my blood test which was done at the time I went to a doctor and she said everything is normal except for my blood chemistry was too high which she said means I have a high vitamin concentration.

I had pe last week, and I was wondering how long the convalescence should be. I was in the hopsital emergency room for 2 days and as soon as the blood clot was gone, they told me to go home and didn't give me any time off from work. I took Monday off and today I tried going to work but ended finishing the day at lunchtime, I was so exhausted that I slept all afternoon afterwards. Is this normal? Has anyone every had PE?
