Maybe 4-5 days ago, Ivebeen waking up having the urge to cough. 2 mornings ago, I woke up to a slight minor wheeze. Today it seems the same, cept I have to cough I little more, butnow im sort of coughing stuff up, yuck. I have:
-no fever
-no problems breathing (Maybe it's not bronchitis/pneumonia...I use to get bronchitis a lot),
-no sore throat (oh I have gotten one this months. Usually I always get a sore throat before I get sick)
-and no runny nose what so ever.

Yesterday I was playing basketball for at least 35 min and I had no problems breathing. hm. It's just I really have to cough and it's deep with a slight wheeze. I feel perfectly fine also. What is going on??
My house is dusty and blowing out crap and it might have mold flowing around due to leaky balconys, but it's not really serious. Maybe Ive breathed in so much dust and crap it's all gone to my lungs and I end up with this. The past 5 days I've been upping the herbal welness supplements, and Vit. C with a multi vit. Ug.

Any ideas?

Oh yeah, my sister just got over strep throat, and my mom had something on top of interstitial lung disease.

Hmmmm.....allergies or I was going to say bronchitis but your symptoms say otherwise.

Go see your doc. You could have whooping cough. It's on the rise again.... Also, given the pattern of lung issues in your home, and the dust/mold issues, you really should get this checked out in any case. Probably nothing serious, but nip it now.

Also, how is your mom? Did you ever get that moldy-looking stuff in your vents analyzed?

Preliminary Foo medical lab results indicate you have pinky toe cancer.

Kaiser virus. It's what they call it when they don't know what it is.

Seriously....You sound like me when I have my allergy/asthma attacks. Don't mess with asthma. Go get it checked soon. Spring is here and the allergies may have kicked up a little bit of the suffering here.

You are sick with delusion if you are asking this kind of question of the crowd...

I am gonna say bubonic plague, SARS, and bird flu, mixed in with just a touch of syphyllis!!

Go to to a doctor to confirm this please and let me know.

Oh, and hope you feel better soon.

Geeze, my momma always called the stuff we skritched at on our heads on a hot day the creepin' crud.

This raises the obvious question... running zombies or not? Personally, I find zombies that run much more intimidating than the traditional, slow moving, uncoordinated zombie.
