Upper Respiratory Tract Infection
"I came back from the U.K. with a terrible chest cold.  I spent the first week drinking tons of water and hot tea and lounging on the couch with a heating pad on my chest.  I finally went to the doctor who took a chest x-ray to make sure there was no pneumonia or bronchitis. He prescribed Tussionex cough medicine which worked great on the cough and helped me sleep like a baby.  After two days the cold worked its way up into my throat and ear canals and I lost my voice. Called the doctor back who prescribed azithromycin. After 1 day I was feeling much better, but still not quite myself. After 2 days I was able to function almost normally. I&#039;ve taken the 3rd dose today and am hopeful that I will be even better today."
