Frick 21 Posted March 12, 2015 People ... I need ideas.... I had sx Monday March 9th in TJ Mx.... love dr. Vazquez and gang... only pain was PCOS related... tonight I sit in my hotel room unable to sleep because I can't stop weezing and coughing... my hubby, bless him walked to the pharmacia and bought an albuterol inhaler... no I am not asthmatic... then we called the dra. And she had a Mexican musenex delivered to the room ... it has helped me to breath better but I can't lay down and sleep ... hot green tea soothes it for a min... so does ice chips ... but with the sleeve i can only drink so much... this girl needs sleep AND has an 8 hour + flight home on Friday. ... any ideas?

Elode 8,093 Posted March 12, 2015 Hold a pillow really tight over your stomach when you cough that should help with the pain as far as meds I don't know anything about Mexican medications so I can't help with that...sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JamieLogical 8,710 Posted March 12, 2015 Was your doctor at all concerned about pneumonia? It can happen after surgery. Did she have you using an incentive spirometer before and after surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bellabill 253 Posted March 12, 2015 Walk a round which will help get rid of the junk in the lungs. Common after surgery. They should give you a spirometer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
