mummies, I think the sleep really did me good.. surprisingly, i felt so much better now! actually sleep is really the best cure.. eat a lot of antibiotics also no use..
I was researching on the web yesterday.. apparently many doctors prescribe antibiotics for cough.. but there is really no clear evidence that the antibiotics help. Studies show that people will recover anyway, with or without taking antibiotics..
Anyway, i m glad i didn't cave in to the temptation to take antibiotics. When I went to see doc on Monday, i was feeling really terrible. GP at first didn't want to give me antibiotics cos he said there is no sign that I am having a bacterial infection.. then because I atually persisted.. because i felt so sick and terrible.. then GP said, ok, he can prescribe, but ask me not to eat it first.. wait for 2 days to see if my cough really gets bad.. then take it..
Then he told me the antibiotics cost $18! wah.. me being the giam-siap person.. decided not to buy! hahah.. cos anyway, i will be seeing my gynae on thursday mah.. so i told GP if I really still not well by Thurs, then i will get my gynae to prescribe antibiotics for me.. anyway, the good news now is that, i don't think i need antibiotics afterall..
So mummies, if you all have a cough next time, can try your best to tahan first.. have a lot of sleep! I actually felt very guilty that i am taking 2 days mc + 1 mc on thurs for my checkup.. cos really busy at work.. but the sleep really really helps alot!
