A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Achy eyeballs, headache, feeling cold, lacking in stamina when I work out, itchy nose and feverish feeling. Whenever these symptoms are displayed, I know that fever and a bad cold or throat infections are looming over me. I had these symptoms yesterday and I tried to nip the bud before a full blown flu attacks…
Ever since Baby was an infant, she never once took any oral meds to treat her cough or runny nose. That’s because since she was 7 weeks old, she had to take oral antibiotics everyday until she was 14 months old (that’s after the Ureteral Reimplantation surgery in May last year). Our paed has all…
Today is the first day that Sherilyn and Baby are showing the first signs of a cold. It all started about a week ago when a friend who had her first signs of cold came to our house. She played with the girls and got very near the girls. The 6 days incubation period is…
Two days ago, I felt an impending throat infection, cough and runny nose attacking me.

Thanks to everyone who commented in my earlier post – thanks for your advice and suggestions. After popping 2 more Panadol Actifast last night and slept at 10:30pm (which was considered very early for me), the throbbing pain on my head, teeth and jaw is gone today. I could even jog for half an hour and…
…with cough and runny nose. With only 3 more days left before their trip to Hong Kong, I didn’t want to let them heal on their own, so I told hubby to bring them to the paed this morning. Flying with a runny nose can be really disastrous and torturous as the ears will most likely get…
It just came all of a sudden yesterday. Either I got bitten by the same bug that bit Sherilyn or Sherilyn got bitten by my flu bug. My nose is now blocked, I can’t smell no nothing and my throat is painful. At the onset of the stuffy nose, I quickly popped some Esberitox N…
