kalpurna at 06:45pm on 08/10/2008Oh god, flist, oh god. The Cough is back.
Every couple of years, I get this godawful dry violent persistent Cough that lasts for around two months. It's often triggered by something like smoke or another irritant, but once it gets going, it just doesn't quit. I have no idea what the trigger was this time, but I'm guessing something pollen-y. The official medical word is that it's some kind of asthma-spectrum thingy, or reactive airway disease. I have an inhaler, but it basically does nothing. I have to wait it out.
Primarily it's just EXHAUSTING. My abs hurt and my throat hurts and I'm embarrassed in classes. Thank God I don't share a bedroom with anyone, because it sure as hell doesn't let anyone within ten yards sleep, including me.
This is the last fucking thing I need.
