I got this head cold on my birthday, Jan. 31st (I'll take belated gifts, btw). Everyone else I know that had it, got over it in a day or three.
I thought I was getting over it as well, but then it set up house in my chest, just like in those weird Mucinex commercials. I think they're hanging pictures on the walls of my lungs and everything.
I cough all night long and I'm really phlegmy (Flemish?). I never used to be like this with colds. I've always had a pretty top notch immune system that would efficiently kick a head cold's butt in 72 hours with all signs of any illness erased like it never even happened.
But since this trial I have had a LOT of upper respiratory infections. During the first winter of the study I had 6 URIs in the span of 4 months. And I read in the Informed Consent that URIs were a known side effect.
So, even though I can't say enough good things about Fingolimod, it sure sucks to have a head cold that won't go away.
Pass the Kleenex, would ya?
Careful now, Missy! My "head cold" (ahem) turned into pee new moan ya. Hehe...like you needed one more potential hypochondriacal notion, eh?
