Somehow, a ccouple of months ago, I picked up a cough. It’ll be alright, I thought, a few days it’ll go. Nope. A few weeks later I still have it. Time for the Doctors. Antibiotics, that’ll do it. 5 days worth, the symptoms ease but don’t go, and then resurface. Back to the Doctors, another round, they ease and at one point, I thought it had gone, but no, it came back with a bit of a vengeance. This time, i get a face to face with the doctor and a reference for a chest x-ray. Luckily, that came back clear. Another appointment with the doctor, this time to be confronted with a “We aren’t sure how to diagnose this” The thing they came up with was “Chronic Persistent cough” which can habve any one of a number of causes.
All of that is OK, but it leaves me in something of a limbo. I haven’t left the house for a week. Everytime I move, I cough. Now I’m on an inhaler, which is helping. What I haven’t had is fresh air. I need to get out. Perhaps starting with short walks, trying to build up energy.
I’ve reached a point of frustration now. Perhaps moving a bit will help.
