Typhoid Mary really needs Doc’s help!

[SharonStudent]

Doc, I need some advice please!?  Hubby brought home some crud and shared it with me (thoughtful guy isn’t he!?).  I’ve been sick for about a week and a half now, and the cough is worse than ever at this point.  It is a horrible deep rattle that is loud and obnoxious – like “clear the building for fear of catching something awful” kind of a cough.  Terrible fatigue, hoarseness and a sore throat, very congested nasal passages to go with the lungs, and of course, body aches.  Here’s what I’m taking (I call it throwing the medicine cabinet at it):

Chaga, Sweet Wormwood, Immunity support, Shoo Floo, Bug Buster, Pine needle, Cold Away, a Mullein/Marshmallow/Peppermint tincture, Echinacea Root, and Astragalus root – as well as the Leaky Gut protocol that continues after the 7 weeks of Herbal Cleanse.  I kind of would have thought after the big cleanse that I wouldn’t even be able to get this sick – but here I am.  With all these amazing herbs/tinctures – I cannot even believe I’m still sick – and the cough shows no sign of letting up. Would you mind telling me where I’m going wrong please?  If I had your knowledge to go with these remedies, I’d bet I would have been over this in a few days!  Thanks in advance!

Typhoid Mary (you have to be a certain age to understand that reference I think)!

I’d have a look at these two:

Respiratory COF

Respiratory EXP

Doc, I’ll get both ordered today, but this has been going on like 2 weeks with all the above tinctures thrown at it.  So…

1. Do I continue with all of the above mentioned tinctures till I am finally over this, and in the meantime, order the other two and add them to the arsenal?
2. How would I know if I need to reduce a cytokine storm?  How can you tell if it’s an issue?  I don’t want to reduce it if I shouldn’t do so.
3.  I’m actually getting desperate enough to reach for big Pharma products just to get over this.  The non stop barking (really nasty coughing) is getting old, and NoMoSpazms doesn’t make it stop, nor does Cramp Bark.  Onion honey helps a bit, but doesn’t stop it entirely.  It’s impossible to get a decent night’s sleep with all the hacking and barking – and once it starts, it almost goes to vomiting (it has stopped 2 seconds away each time so far!).  None of the tinctures can get the sleep for me because of the hacking.  I will confess that two nights ago, I took some horrible NyQuil and slept like a baby for TWELVE hours straight – but gosh that stuff is really nasty – any tincture is a walk in the park compared to that stuff!

Thank you for taking time to help a sick old gal!

Hi Sharon, I’m sorry you’re hurting. Praying for you to have relief and peaceful sleep. Psalms 104:14 “…He gave herbs for the service of man”.

Thank you for your kindness and God’s wonderful words!  I was hoping Doc would chime in with my last questions.  I’m slowly getting better, but believe that I have pneumonia.  Been sick since around the 4th of the month!  Still pretty sick, but the cough isn’t quite as horrible now.  Hubby could have just brought home a box of junk from the auction, but no, he brings home the crud!  Such a thoughtful hubby LOL!!

Sorry I missed the follow up on this Sharon. I need to tweak the forum so that stuff with new replies gets pushed to the top. I didn’t realize there were threads getting replies that were still back in the earlier pages.

If you ever have something time-sensitive, shoot me an email rather than waiting on the forum. I don’t get a chance to look at it every day.

Bless you Doc!  I will in the future go for email if something really important is pending more than a couple of days and I need your direct input sooner.  You’re a peach – a funny and smart peach!
