BillyVance 34 #1 August 24, 2007 All week I've been sick as a dog. Wife brought some kind of bug home and gave it to me and the little girl. Knocked my ass down for 3 days and I have been slowly recovering. But damn, the meds I was given gave me insomnia. I was up until 2 or 3 am Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Finally last night my wife let me have one of her Ambien pills and I slept like a baby for 11 hours. The thing that drives me nuts is this stupid ass post-nasal-drip. You know, that phlegm shit in your nose that drains down the back of your throat? You're constantly trying to cough it out. Goddamn... give me a damn suction tube so I can vacuum that shit out so I can take a picture of it and hang it up on my wall!!!!

simplyputsi 0 #2 August 24, 2007 I'm pretty sure that if you stick the vacuum hose down your throat it will get all that stuff out. Do you have a video camera by chance. I mean I just want to see how much it sucks out of you. Skymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildfan75 1 #3 August 24, 2007 Ditto...I've been sick all week too. What did they give you? The doc prescribed Pseudovent for me, which makes me a little insomniatic, but its helped me stay awake through the work day and the 2 tylnol PM's I take at night more than enough compesate for the alertness. When I'm sick I always feel guilty that I take feeling well for granted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 34 #16 August 25, 2007 Fuck it, I just popped in another Ambien tablet so I could really get to sleep, but not before playing a game of poker. After about 15 minutes into the game, I'm having a hard time concentrating. I dunno, it felt like watching someone else's game and not mine. It was so weird.... hooo hummmm least I made it to the bubble before I was gone....

I apologize in advance if this is gross..but my dentist does this for me. It is a huge relief to clear out my congestion in my lungs so I can breathe. If he didn't do it, it would be recycled or just sit there, and take much longer to recoup like what you are dealing with. I feel your painI take Lunesta per diem and it seems to work nicely with a deep sleep for approx 7 hrs. After that, I'm awake and feel refreshed. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
