[quote:Nine's:MV8yMDQ3Mjk5XzM0Mzk5Nzg3X0VERkE2RUU3] If you're having trouble breathing, you might need an inhaler. Did you tell your Dr. about the breathing? You have asthma or COPD? Bronchitis can sure wear you out. Some suggestions you might want to try....after checking to make sure they won't conflict with any other meds you're taking, are Mucinex D, Celestial Seasonings Echinacea wellness tea with a spoonful of honey, and/or a menthol patch. If your cough is bad, a cough syrup with guaifenesin in it might help. Vicks vapo rub put on the bottom of your feet and covered with socks will help the night cough. Need lots of fluids, water, ginger ale, and tea. Applesauce and chicken noodle soup with lots of fresh garlic, chopped onion, celery, and a sprinkle of hot pepper. Rest will help and if it doesn't get better, tell your Dr. They don't usually give antibiotics for viral bronchitis, but there are anti virals, and you don't want to end up with pneumonia. Hope you feel better soon and post if you find something that helps you. Might help someone else.:hf: [/quote]
