Thirding asking your doc to double-check for asthma and pertussis. And, oh I am so sorry. I went through several months of coughing-wheezing-rib-wrenching hell before getting the asthma diagnosis -- which I thought had been ruled out years before. So never mind what you think might have been previously yes or no'd, or any previous shots or anything you think has already been ruled out; no matter how sure you are, it doesn't hurt and may help a ton to ask your docs to check and re-check again.
eta: Just saw your post - never mind the asthma, but definitely ask them to check on pertussis and reconfirm yea or nay.
Oh, sail, ~ma to your roommate.
I'm so sorry about your rommate Sail
I have an appointment at 11:15. Will is coming over to take me. When I called I talked to a nurse who heard me cough and asked if I'd need tested for pertussis.
So that's getting down. I called work.
Before all of that I had a complete anxiety attack. I had thoughts about hurting myself mostly so someone would believe me. This is triggering huge massive emotions from when I was a kid being taken from doctor to doctor trying to figure out what was wrong with me and feeling like no one believed me.
I did call my therapist. I'm pretty sure the crying is not helping things.
All the hugs, askye. I give you all the hugs.
askye, that sucks. I hope visiting the doctor nets some real results for you soon.
askye, if you ever need an ear who's been through serious depression, anxiety and panic attacks, I am here for you.
Much love and feel better-ma.
Well, it looks like TCG once again has a three day weekend.
Yay for snow days! This 3 day weekend thing should continue. Maybe they will be open to more telecommuting.
Lots and lots of smooth~breathing~ma sent your way, askye.
Peace and comfort wishes for your roommate, Sail.

Telecommuting would be wonderful, but right now I think TCG would rather be at work if it meant he didn't have to shovel snow again.
{{{{{askye}}}}} All sorts of ~ma headed your way. I hope the doctor is helpful.
Huge hugs, askye, and much ~ma for them finally figuring it out. While on one hand I don't wish pertussis on you, OTOH I hope that's what you have just so you have an answer and they can fix it already.
