I met my favourite doctor this morning again. How are you, he asked me. Well I am HERE! was my reply. After some brief examination, I looked at him in puzzlement and his wise reply was – the virus has spread (oh no?!) and it is still lingering. He delivered the news with such a happy face that I really couldn’t read his mind.
I am going to give you something to clear the phlegm, he said. And then he asked, with a frown, if I want some lozenges. Of course I need! Give me more! Give me many! You sure, he inquired. Duh?!
Finally, he told me that he would give me some cough pills. No, no, no! Give me cough mixture! The one that knocks me off to bed! Not sure he felt taken aback by my challenging of his authority, he reinterated that the cough pills are good for me. They won’t knock me off to bed.
When I collected my pills and my well deserved medical certificate, I stared at the cough pills label in disbelieve. It said: May Caused Drowsiness.
Duh!

Alright, these cough pills are potent. They knocked the living crap out of me and sent me straight to bed. Side effects including headaches and wanting to puke. I think I would live with the cough itself and have more lozenges.
