My throat does not hurt anymore today but i am coughing terribly. The cough was so bad sometimes that i could feel pain at my chest when coughing, but then i guess it is better than having a sore throat that caused fever and excruciating pain. At least now the phlegm is only yellowish and sometimes even clear; before that, the phlegm was thick and accompanied with blood.
Unfortunately, my voice has not recovered yet and i am now sounding very coarse. I am taking Strepsils and the Chinese tranditional Fritillaria Loquat confection (川贝枇杷膏). I hope these would help.
I did go to see a doctor in SG when i was back from KL on Thursday night. The doctor prescribed new antibiotics and inflammation treatment for me. It seems like this new medication does work better, as i can feel myself recovering.
Mom has bought some CNY goodies at home. I looked at the cookies and crackers on the table this afternoon and was so tempted to snack some. Yet i told myself that i am still sick and must assert self-control. I should not prolong the suffering just for a momentary gratification of a craving.
On an unrelated note, LF came over to my home this afternoon and did manicure for me. After doing mine, she went to do it for PT. Yes, now she has a new profession of providing free manicure service for her friends. She did a good job and now i have clean and nice nails for CNY. Thanks LF!
