Her mom, my grandma was the same way.

It had no affect on her dry cough (the GP and I eventually figured the cough was a habit)! There were no side-effects that we could tell...(The GP gave us 8 weeks' worth of samples, so it didn't cost a dime).<br /><br />Don't be too sad about missing your European vaction...right now I'm living in Russia, and I'm thinking Europe is over-rated! Good thing about Europe is that if you wait to come over here, all the old, historical stuff will still be here, just older.<br /><br />I say while your husband is away, plan a vacation for you - somewhere that may be in the US/Canada that you've always wanted to go, but he has no or little interest in.<br /><br />New Hampshire/Vermont is gorgeous in the summer.Ex Yo-Yo Dieter Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10833922126301063523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-45533729622499310832011-02-04T10:53:19.922-05:002011-02-04T10:53:19.922-05:00Sharon, congratulations on your well-deserved awar...Sharon, congratulations on your well-deserved award. I loved reading more about the "real" you! Like you, Clint and I are childless by choice and we did take a lot of crap for it back in the 1970's. We were never tried to push our beliefs on anyone else, and were always shocked/hurt/surprised/angry when family or friends tried to persuade us to have kids. I can honestly say that neither of us ever once regretted our decision.<br /><br />As for medication, I may have taken Singulair when I was originally diagnosed in 2001, but I can't remember exactly what I was on then. I was very sick at the time. About a year or so later, I was put on Advair for Asthma and Claritin-D for allergies and I've done very well with those meds. They did not cause me to gain weight -- in fact, I became so healthy by using them that I have been able to lose weight. I was so healthy for awhile that I stopped taking my meds for about 2-1/2 years, but over the past few months, I began having occasional allergy attacks again, and quite a bit of that nasty, crushing chest pressure that asthma causes, so I am back on the Advair, and taking the Claritin-D as needed. I also have an emergency inhaler which I use very rarely. Yes, my meds sometimes increase sleeplessness, but since I'm somewhat of an insomniac anyway, I've never worried about it. All of my walking from exercise tires me out enough to help me get a few hours of sleep every night.MARSIAL2010https://www.blogger.com/profile/07930679479174146656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-28649055144859115912011-02-04T10:29:41.490-05:002011-02-04T10:29:41.490-05:00Sharon,

He has no idea how close we came to getting married. <br /><br />I'm sorry about the European vacation getting canceled. Sometimes, though, I think three weeks alone isn't a bad thing. :)<br />LoriLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06348740719854853661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990977257817044347.post-66091738880577626022011-02-04T10:02:05.247-05:002011-02-04T10:02:05.247-05:00Sharon, I'm so glad you may be onto a treatmen...Sharon, I'm so glad you may be onto a treatment for your sinus problems. I do not know about the Singulair. New Hampshire/Vermont sounds wonderful, as I have never been there. Colorado sounds good, too. Minnesota, not so much.

CO has great hiking too, of course. <br /><br />6) I was always picked last too. Look at us now!<br /><br />5) Aerosmith. Late 70s maybe. <br /><br />Your honesty always shines through:) As does your wonderful spirit. Funny how that can be so evident just in words typed on a blog.
