The truth…
…is that my cough this time is taking a long time to recover.
And I hate it.
Tried different kinds of expectorants but the condition is still the same. It has been more than two weeks and I am so tired. I have not been productive to date. There are so many things I wanted to do in a day but I can only manage to do one little thing per day. If I get online too long, my head will be spinning like a ferris wheel. I am also having mild low grade fever on and off.
Dearest friend, Yoon See suggested that I take propolis and garlic for the cough. I went to the pharmacy but there was no medicine with both combination. I found Kordel’s Echinacea and Garlic. So I bought it. It helps bring down the cough a bit for few days only. My auntie suggested that I try honey with lemon. I just bought a bottle of both mixture today and hope to bring down the cough to lower level. Or none.
But I will try to finish online illustration orders by tomorrow or at least before Friday.

Hi emi.. Sorry to hear u sakit lama lama.. Cough usually takes a long time..its annoying and u’ll feel very tired. U can try pure manuka honey. Just take a spoon and put in ur mouth.. Let it melt slowly n drink sikit water after that. Dun know if it will help.. Most impt.. is lot of rest n sleep. Chicken will make u cough more jugoo..hahaha so sorry I hv not been around. No internet.. I m just on bb. Am trying to wean off the internet till next year. Take care emi.

found your blog when i searched for malaysian sketchblogs 🙂 just wanted to put in my two cents that Ubat Batuk Cap Ibu dan Anak is the best for a chesty cough :p my coughs always take weeks to end because of my asthma. They last even longer when I run out of my syrup!!

Cough! I hate coughs, especially the kind that doesn’t go away. I’m sorry but I have no magical remedy for you but urrmmm, whacking so banana leaf with spicy chicken curry works for me … LOL!
Get well soon Emila 😀

Emila..
Have you been to the doctor? Prolonged cough can be a sign of something.. my my asthma started with prolonged cough though now it is very well controlled ever since I’ve moved to my new place..
if yours is cold and cough.. perhaps you can try panadol for cold, you have to get it at the dispensary at the pharmarcy though coz it’s not on the shelves. I had a cold and running nose and within 3hours of taking it, both cleared up!

There’s two kind.. one is for cold (non-drowsy) and the other is for fever and cold (drowys). I t cost RM4.80 for 10 pieces only.. i got my niece to try it when her fever persisted and within a day, she was all better..
Take care dearie and hope you get better soon ya..
Hugs

Emila,
I hope you have got better! I would suggest you do a full body check up if you’re still having
cough…
Take care
