I did finally go to the doctor last thursday. She gave me an inhaler, cough drug and antibiotics. I am feeling better, but I still am coughing a lot. So much that last night I had to stop eating dinner. I made chili that was way to spicy for me and wow I couldn't stop coughing.

I've been back in the pool for the last 2 days - yesterday I swam for 40 mins, very few actual swimming, mostly just kicking with the kick board. Today I was able to do a little more swimming including 8 lengths of pulling to give my arms a work out, but after 2 puffs of the inhaler I'm still feeling like my breath is hard to catch- so maybe i over did it. Tomorrow i'll probably go back to mostly kicking, and maybe by next week i'll be able to go back to swimming in miles.
