The Cold That Will Not Die!
I have been infected with a super bug, a pesky virus, The Cold That Will Not Die! It has now been 8 days and I have tried everything! Hot tea, chicken soup, Emergen-C, Zycam, Dayquil, Nyquil, Sudafed, Robotussin, cough drops of three kinds, Benadryl (that usually knocks me out like an elephant tranquilizer) and even cough syrup with coedine. Nothing knocks this sucker out! Inevitably, at about 1:00 in the morning, I get a tickle in my throat and I cough and wheeze and choke for the next two hours. How the heck am I supposed to go to work when I spend two hours out of every evening wandering around like a zombie coughing my head off??? I am starting to think I will have this cold for the rest of my life. ARRRGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!
