Returning to health, now Dan's getting sick (by Pam)

**Update** Dan went to the doctor this morning. He now has a compound ear infection, with a deep inner ear infection, and outer "swimmers ear" infection. He's on drops and pills, but is in some pretty good pain.
Just after Fathers Day my throat started burning, and body started aching. I didn't think much of it, and about a week later at my doctors apt. it had turned into more of a dry tickle so I didn't even mention it.
Well, that dry tickle turned into an extremely miserable cough. Mostly at night, at first it didn't slow me down much during the day. Most of a week later, I've been exhausted from lack of sleep, and very sore from hard coughing 8 months pregnant. Finally I went to the doctor, after an hour of waiting and 60 seconds of talking to a doctor. I walked out with a pregnancy safe Rx. Three days later I finally feel like this is getting better instead of worse. I still spend half the night coughing, but at least now that means half the night sleeping.
The sad part... now Dan is getting it.

Hope you are doing better, not fun! Did you try the Vicks on the feet thing?
