I haven't been sick in years; and this cold/bronchitis is kicking my behind.
Our housekeeper's mother is coming over today to get a bunch of clothes to take to the rehab facility. Right now hubby has no clean jeans. She said she's going to make me some Thera-Flu too. Don't know what that is; but if it makes me feel better, I'm all for it.
Breakfast - None
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Corned beef sandwich, cabbage, potatoes, grapes
Dessert/Snack - Chocolate chip muffin
Dinner - PB&J sandwich
What did you eat yesterday?

@LindaOHio All of my mother's clothes and shoes got stolen when she was in the nursing home. Pityful!!

Heard that I shouldn't be taking the Thera Flu with my glaucoma. The laundry lost one of his pairs of jeans. Had to bring more.

@LindaOHio I think that only some would not be a problem, but better to stop getting it.

I have had bronchitis. It is no fun. You will likely need an antibiotic.I wouldn't put it off. It could turn into pneumonia. Not sure what I ate yesterday, but had an antipasto today and a steak sandwich.

@LindaOHio At your age and physical condition I wouldn't risk it. I had it when I was in college and was quite sick for weeks.Couldn't concentrate or anything. It was very stupid not to go to a doctor sooner. What makes you think you don't have a regular cold?

I read an article that said to tough it out when it comes to bronchitis because you should avoid taking too many antibiotics.

@snowy22315 My lungs are so full of crap. I feel the same as when I've had bronchitis before. Either way, I should be OK in a few days.

I sure hope you feel much better soon, Thera-Flu is a hot drink mix for those who have the flu. I would suggest hot tea with honey and lemon. I had pork patties and tater tots. I felt like laying down this afternoon and took a nap and wound up with a heavy Freddie sleeping on top of me

Do you have fever or chills as well? Covid can and often does settle in the chest. Take a test if you have one.
Better to be safe than be down for days and days.

I suppose I should take the test; but it just feels like a bad cold and bronchitis.

I have taken many of those tests, it just takes a very short time. It's better to know than not to know, so if i get bronchial or coughing, I just go ahead and use a test.

Theraflu is a cold medicine you dissolve in hot water, if I am not mistaken. I hope all hubby's clothes are labeled so he gets them back. Nice of her to take them.

It felt good to drink something hot; but I didn't feel any better from it. Yes, she is very eager to help.
