A Very Bad Cough

Have caught this very bad cough last week. It got worse during the night and I tried to contain the coughing by coughing into the pillow so that Evans would not be awakened by the noise. I wonder why cough gets worse during the night. :(

Received some kind advice and possible remedies from my friends and I only tried the Vicks method, i.e. to apply generous amount at the soles then wear the socks during sleep. It was said to ease night coughing. I think it sort of works since I did not wake up coughing very badly last night.

Also, I have been diligently drinking the cough mixture from the brand "Sea-Coconut", which hubby bought for me. It has a nice cooling effect after 4 teaspoons. But I think it doesn't really cure right away. So I want to follow the instructions very closely, i.e. to drink it every 3 hours with hot water. I really hope to get well soon, cos I do not want others (esp Evans) to catch it. And I also want to eat all my favourite stuff like ice cream!
