The coughing has not gotten better. It is worse when I lie down. I feel like I am drowning. I called the doc today and he started to say I have whooping cough. Then he said it seemed like I have an asthmatic reaction from the cold. It is called viral induced asthma. Basically the cold induces the asthma. When faced with a viral infection, the body triggers an inflammatory response to attack and defend. The asthma can continue for up to 8 weeks. I have to use an inhaler for a month or so. I can pick up the meds tomorrow.
Good news: Lucky woke up and ate some food. Then she ate her entire dinner. This is very good news! Her blood work came back normal.
Until tomorrow...
