No worries, I disappear unexpectedly myself sometimes.
Side-question: Did you get the two emails I’ve sent your way in response to the one you sent to me?
Just want to make sure the mail is getting through here…
Peiper - hope you get some relief for your cough soon. Waking in the middle of the night and being unable to get back to sleep is not fun, I do it far too often to wish it on anyone else.
Sorry to hear that nasty cough is back again - you’d think that the wonderful, perfect socialized medicos would want to find out exactly what was plaguing you and get it knocked out once and for all - but alas they can’t even be bothered to write a scrip for something to allow you to sleep at night.
America - look well at your future. I’ve lived with ‘gov’ healthcare since I was 19 - you can’t believe some of the stories I could tell you - and only a very, very small handful of good ones. I actually had an ER doc diagnose over the phone and tell me to go to Wal Mart to get the OTC medicine I needed - I would guess on a payday Friday night he didn’t want my kids exposed to GSWs & DUIs? How nice of him - however I don’t get the luxury of suing his assets if he was wrong.
Push the fluids to help break up the cough, no diary products until you get medication (it encourages mucus) and get plenty of rest.
