So I've been bragging how ironically since switching from copenhagen back in Oct 09 to snus and then soon after adding nasal "snuff" to my diet, I had yet to get a sinus infection, cold, or flu at all for like a first in X years I can remember. So anyhoo, don't know when it started or what went wrong but:
-Went out to a local bar with band with fiance about 2 weekends ago. Place was loaded with cigarette smoke (which I could never stand, now seems even worse). Next day and day(s) continuing after that I've developed a pretty nasty on & off cough but nothing else associated with it till last couple day, just the cough hacking as if I had been smoking.
-Ironically during the same time frame I had been put on an anti-biotic for some mysterious skin rash - possible flea bites from my dogs, not sure cause the doc had been ramming on me about my tobacco habits for 90% of my checkup visit and barely got to tell him about the bites/rash... So it was a 14 day antibiotic and seemed to clear up that condition BUT ironically about my last dose 3 days ago, the cough started progressing into a slight morning sore throat that would ease up later in the day.
-Fiance's daughter had been diagnosed with bronchitis along with possible sinus infection (probably caught at school of course....) about a week ago.
-So I spent the last two nights/weekend sleeping over at fiance's and by Sunday morning was hacking so bad along with being stuffed up like hardly able to breath through nose for first time this year and blowing "yellow" out.... NOTE: As most of you know my story, I've had to give up my daily doses of nasal snuff during these past two days before the onset of my presumed now "Cold / Sinus infection" as I had been religiously using some limited Hedges L.260 in the morning and night along with my other regular non-menthols throughout the day whilst at work or when usually at home in the evenings so as you can see in this case I WAS WITHOUT ALL MY NASAL SNUFF FOR OVER 48 HOURS AND IRONICALLY CAUGHT THIS FRIGGEN BUG NOW!
Just thought I would vent. Who knows wtf caused me to get sick... Combination of the above? All I know is *knock on wood* - oops there went my fist through the plank.... Hadn't had a bit of sinus/cold related problems for the first year I can remember since starting nasal snuff and/or getting off the Copenhagen dip. (and now my first 48 hours all winter without nasal snuff and I catch a fäcking sinus cold.)
/Rant off... Sorry I'm very crabby and sick and can't miss work tomorrow. Gonna pound down some more Hedges L.260 before dozing off as noticing it is getting things moving.
