I'm sorry to hear about your friend. A dry cough not a bad sign, and it's also a good sign that you're a 25 y/ o male. It's also good you got the tamiflu on board early. A lot of times, you get a "post-infectious " cough. Meaning your flu is gone, but there's still some inflammation, that's nothing sinister. This can last a couple of weeks after your infection has cleared. You can ask your doctor to prescribe codeine, or use some of the over-the-counter anti-tussives. If you're having trouble with breathing, getting light headed, still have high fevers or chills, or something to that effect, those are bad signs and you should see a doctor soon. Also, cleansing your colon and acupuncture will not help. Some of the herbal teas might make you feel better though. It's your money, you can try them out. |
