Finally I can sleep.
After I got back to the U.S. I went to the doctor.
It turns out I have, among other things, a severe ear infection. I’m on antibiotics. All the fluid in my ear makes me drowsy, dizzy, and feel like I’m dreaming.
I also I have an eye infection, but it has mostly gone away.
But at least now I can sleep through the night. Before I couldn’t, even with the jet lag, due to extreme coughing.
I’m one of those people who is prone to getting a bad cough. I will start off with a cold, and end up with bad cough. But the bad cough is basically allergies. Normal cough syrup does not help. Even codeine does not help. I know because I’ve tried it more than once.
This time, to prevent myself from coughing, I took a benadryl at night. It took about a day to start working, but once it worked, it worked extremely well. I would recommend this approach for anyone who suffers from a similar condition. I got the idea to take an antihistamine from Men’s Health magazine.
