Not the kind of doctor anyone would want (or need!)  I do hope you'll find a great doctor who will listen to you, and will treat you accordingly.  I'm sorry you are hurting from your cough, and that the next doctor can treat you for that cough, Jane!

I dont feel sick sick, but my throat and chest hurts from coughing. Calling in the morning.

 

Meanwhile my realtor did a walkthrough of the condo, I said I cant come until I'm over this. Looks pretty good, left some tools, light bulbs and a few bags. Rest looks clean. More tile and less carpet than I remembered. Tomorrow official closing day. We have all signed, just waiting for notice. I think he called it the ALTA. From closing. Tomorrow FPL, tax place, and call new doctor. Let's hope he can figure this out. I cant travel with this cough. It's bad, almost like hacking so hard, almost throwing up. Wouldnt want to be in a airplane full of people hacking.

Had a very successful poker game , I normally win , but this was a big win, extra money will go towards my casino funds for cruise in 11 days . Bad news was a good friend that has prostate cancer just found out he also has lung cancer we have been playing cards for over 20 years and friends for over 30 and he is just in his early 60’s.

Have a great week everyone.   We will be off line for most of the week.  Leaving for Halifax soon to catch an early flight to an AI in Cuba for the week.  Apparently no wifi in rooms buildings but there is in the lobby and common areas.  So I might be able to check in once in a while.  It's our first AI, as we usually choose to cruise instead... as I assume most people in this group as well 😉

Enjoy your AI.

Me too though truthfully idk if it's me or royal but I cant find anything new or interesting to book with royal. I pulled up vtg just to view the other choices. 

 

Ncl has 2 ships and princess at least 1 out of pc. Reasonable prices. 

 

Carnival has a 14 day journey cruise, but costs more on a per day basis. Those journey cruises are pricey. Inside starts around $3500 bottom deck inside. Usually around 6k balcony, but different ports. Idk why royal cant once in a while do stuff like these 14 day carnival.

 

Ncl and princess about the same price. I've done each 3 times before and dont know which I'd rather do. Some different ports. Anyone have a preference between princess and ncl. Idk. I'll be a couple of weeks from pinnacle about this time, so I'd rather hit pinnacle, but royal I'd have to book same as I've already booked. Utopia even seems not terrible, but doing it next feb. Part of me wants to nail pinnacle down, part of me doesnt want to just repeat cruises I'm already doing. 

 

2 weeks on rcl would put me at pinnacle... or book ncl or princess. Celebrity doesnt go out of PC. And I dont think I'd like msc. .. just fooling around today.

 

Was up again last  night coughing so I'll call the new doctor my gp recommended. Whatever it is the eye doctor isnt curing it. Pneumonia I'm thinking tbh. And other things tomorrow. Need to stop this coughing so I can move on with my life. Been over a month now.

We plan on giving MSC a try. The worst thing that could happen is that we don’t like it, but others who like Royal also really like MSC. Hope you get rid of your cough.

Last night I watched the entire season 2 of the Irish series The Tourist on Netflix.It was not as good as season 1 but I will still recommend it because of the good acting.It is a dramedy with some surprises .The last scene sets up for a wish for a season 3.

I felt the same, good but not as good as season 1. Great twist in the final seconds of the last scene

Well I went to the gp. He didnt test for what's wrong I think, said he thought respiratory. Poor visit imo. He said he was sending to ear nose and eyes, but sent me just to eye doctor who said oil glands blocked, so I been following what he said, but still coughing I told gp. So new specialist. 

 

Idk why it's so hard to find out why I'm coughing, especially at night if I lay down on the bed. Dont know this doctor is the answer but I'll go in and find out. Agree I am becoming concerned I've had it too long. Was not impressed with my gp visit. He prescribed a prescription vitamin D, stronger than over the counter I've taken 2 weeks. 

 

I told my realtor in florida I cant come I'm sick. 


Sorry Jane to hear about your annoying cough. Thats the worst feeling. I used to cough nonstop when I would get allergy induced bronchitis every spring. I hope the doctors can figure out what’s going on. Gang in there.

Sis, put some vicks around the ear and back of it if it hurts. I keep Vicks with me when I travel. Magic potion for everything! A Canadian cruising friend suggested it and now I am a believer.

Have a wonderful cruise.

My Mom used Vicks and I have too.  Great recommendation. 😊  After 2 full days of antibiotic Ear is much better, just cannot sleep on that side yet.
