Same symptoms here in our home. The coughing phlegm is exhausting - John gets some relief with the Hydrocodone/APAP elixir. He takes it before bed and again during the night so he has some uninterrupted sleep. MD also suggested guafensin (Sp?) to thin the secretions but he isn't interested in trying it at this point. He actually ate a few bites of an Arby's roast beef yesterday! I'm going to celebrate every little thing that returns us to "new normal".
