Whine, whine, complain...

While it's fabulous that I can drink unadultarated room temperature water again w/o throat daggers, I would really like to stop coughing.

Problem is, the cold got into my lungs, so I need to cough stuff up. Which pisses off my throat. This is made worse by the fact that blowing my nose is, and always has been, singularly ineffective at clearing my nose. Clogged nose hangs out in the back, and only a vigorous, and noisily unpleasant to anyone nearby, snort will clear it out. Unfortunately, this also pisses off my throat. As does clearing it of post-nasal drip.

So I get to piss off my throat and everyone else around me or feel like I'm drowning in post-nasal and back-of-nose drip. When coughing doesn't want to stop, and it's to the point of almost throwing up dinner because of it, I spend much willpower to try to not cough. Or clear my throat. Or my back of nose. I still might cough and have trouble stopping, but it's less. And I might be able to sleep. Do you know how hard it is to sleep when trying desperately to not cough?

Hopefully throat numbing spray, replacing AC with outside air, and returning myself to semi horizontal will let me sleep...

Sigh.
