This isn't really a "medical" issue...

but I didn't know where else to post it. I quit smoking about a month ago and for the past few days have been coughing my head off. I expected it, but does anyone have any idea how long it lasts? My "coughing muscles" are killing me!

And lung barnacles are NASTY!!!

It depends on how much trash your lungs have to expell!

About 10 years worth...

They say the lungs clear up rather quickly once the cilia start moving the crud out.......

You should call and ask your family doctor though.

You may also read up on the subject.

This may help you.....

Also consider that you may have acquired an unrelated illness. I quit smoking and am coughing but I don't think the two are related.

Yeah I just got over the flu (I think.) I had a fever of 101 for about 3 days- and it just went down yesterday.
But there is gray crap coming up (sorry if it's gross) when I cough- so I think it may be related to both.

Actually my boss just sent me home for coughing too much.
Oh well, I can work from home and hang out with my puppies now.

I guess you're one of those nasty bastards who hacks at work and makes the rest of us .

So don't read my posts. I DID apologize, though.

I have my own office...and I'm more of a ##### than a bastard but thanks for hanging out in my thread for a little while.

Same difference.

Same difference.

I'm MUCH better looking than a bastard like yourself, so no it's not "same difference."

Thanks. No big plans this year- just staying local, but I still would like to start off the year on a positive note.

You may look good, but you sound disgusting and are hacking up gray phlegm. Not my idea of attractive.

Dude, she didn't say she spit it out..........you could be really messing up a beautiful thing.

Well then Im REALLY glad that I'm not trying to attract you.

How many times are you going to wave goodbye without leaving?
