Chronic Bronchitis Treatment

I've been taking a break from NAET treaments for a few weeks now. I'm just finishing another round of antibiotics for chronic bronchitis...ten days of amoxicillin. I tried every natural thing I could think of to try and avoid it this time but the coughing got so bad I couldn't sleep, so I finally gave up.

I'm feeling much better but am very tired. So here I am, eating healthy, clearing all my allergies ... and still getting sick. I guess there are just too many things in the air now. The construction across the street is going on 7 days a week. Yes, they're even working on Sunday!

I am getting some of my other medical appointments out of the way this month. Dentist Tuesday, dermatologist screening on Thursday, and the appointment with the retinol specialist at the end of the month.

I kind of feel like I'm in an alternate universe lately. So many awful stories ... hurricanes, earthquakes, and bird flu arriving any day! Isn't it unsettling to listen to the news?

I was sick for over 5 years. Every two months I had either re-occuring bronchitis or a cold. But regularly I had a runny nose and a cough. After many months of antibiotics to treat the unstoppable infection, I saw the allergist. The allergist gave me a list of possible issues cats and dust.
Over a period of time, I found the cause of my problem to be my drive to and from work. I drove 20 minutes twice daily in a heavily diesel environment. Even though my car had a filter for incoming air, it did not work. After three weeks, placing my car air on recirculate (no air from the outside) my symptoms went away and have been gone for over 3 years.

I hope this can help others!!
