Any one else had a bad cough this season? Possibly Dick given his previous persona!
However mine has been in existence since December 24th and at one stage I could not sleep lying down as when I did so the coughing got worse.
I used to have codeine linctus which cleared up the problem prescribed for me by the GP; they banned that and he suggested Merocaine which is currently unavailable due to some discussion about legal rights I believe.
Paracetamol seems the best - but I prefer capsules: however the latest batch from my pharmacy have the packing so tight that when you try to release them from their plastic and metallic film they disintegrate and you have paracetamol powder. Ugh!
Any suggestions?
I sense that it is also the cue for the old quip "it ain't the cough that carried him off - it's the coffin they carried him off in!" or should that be on George's jokes thread?
