Got Medicine?
Posted by | Filed under Life
Still battling the plague, but did make it to the clinic this weekend. The wonderful doctor gave me a nice, wide-spectrum antibiotic and even better a codeine-based cough syrup. The past week or so, I’ve been getting very little sleep do to this nasty plague-induced cough but with this cough syrup I slept roughly 14 hours last night! Wahoo! It feels so good to be rested again.

Alex: I had this problem on a 1999 Golf V5 however this solution didn't work. I phoned a mechanic, who said this:
1) Turn off ignition
2) Turn key part way but don't start the car. With some combination of wiggling the gearstick and turning the key without starting the engine, you can move the stick.
3) Hold the

Janetxb: Another (former) Dannon coffee yogurt fan here..... until recently. I'd say for about 25 years I had one carton of Dannon coffee yogurt almost every day. I was pretty bummed out when they switched from 8- to 6-oz. cups, but I adjusted. Lately I do this instead: I put 1/2 t

When you start walking around the house with your cough syrup and a shot glass — you’re better enough to go to work. :)

My plague hasn’t kept me from working as I’ve been fine during the daylight hours (excluding some minor coughing); it’s just at night I’ve really been having problems. Besides, I couldn’t walk around the house with this cough syrup and a shot glass. 1 dose of it (2 teaspoons, I think) is enough to knock me off my feet in 15 minutes. Which really for me, is the glorious point of taking this nasty tasting stuff. 2 spoons and I get a solid night’s sleep. Sleep like I haven’t had in years. Ahhh, it’s good to be on prescriptions. :D
