The cough was atrocious and unrelenting leading to exhaustion.<br /><br />Rounds of antibiotics were failures. It abated but did not go away. <br /><br />Finally in late October I had an annual appt. with my allergist/asthma COPD specialist. He put me on a dosage of amoxicillin I did not even know was safe 875 mg. It finally broke the cycle. If you normally have some respiratory compromise, it is hard to detect the difference between types of coughs, shortness of breath, etc. <br /><br />My husband who smokes--I do not nor never have--got it and recovered in 3 weeks.NitWit1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035004840443397537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003489296067000954.post-58484682151297590732010-03-23T04:12:49.729-05:002010-03-23T04:12:49.729-05:00I hope you all improve asap!
