My cough is gone!

Postby Mommylut » Mon Mar 01, 2010 7:50 pm

Since Thanksgiving, I have had a really, really awful cough. It has been driving everyone crazy in that once I start coughing I can't start. I had a chest xray and was told I had an inflamation of the lung and was given steroids for 5 days. It worked for a short while and then it started again. This time, I was given antibiotics and 5 days of steroids. The whole time, I was eating my SAD diet. Well, i changed over to McDougall 8 days ago, and I suddenly realized my cough is gone! It has made a believer of my husband who sees the difference in me. I am so grateful for this unexpected benefit.

That's so wonderful! Isn't is amazing that our bodies can heal themselves if we just give them the right stuff? Congrats! :)

cool - I thought you were going to say the cough was from reflux. My boss went through all kinds of tests for this cough and that is finally what they found.

I'm glad yours went away.
