One interesting thing about having a neb treatment 1st thing in the morning - I no longer need coffee! The albuterol-jitters are sufficient to wake me up without any extra caffeine. I've not had anything stronger than black tea all week.

Been on the Duo-Neb (albuterol and an anticholinergic) 2-3x/day since yesterday. I feel MUCH better. I'm able to breathe deeply again, and have had several episodes of coughing out things that have been waaaay down in my lungs for waaaay too long. Gross but very relieving.

Downside is that my lungs are still very twitchy and easily irritated. Did some sewing on a friend's coat last night - she has cats but they don't directly contact the coat - and I had an awful coughing episode - had to get up shortly after going to bed to take another treatment which then kept me awake for another 2 hours. Upper chest was still sore and sting-y when I woke up, and then I fell asleep on the couch and woke up at 4 so my sleep schedule is terribly off now.

bleh.

But I have some of my homemade turkey soup thawing, and a stack of library books, and no need to leave the house till tomorrow afternoon so there is no reason why I can't spend the rest of today resting quietly and letting things heal again.
