Hi ladies,
This isn't a serious problem, but an annoying one that is keeping me from work. And I can't afford to miss any.
My question is 2-part.
1. I have a cold that turned into laryngitis. I can't even whisper. Therefore, I have to miss work as my job requires me to talk all day. So my question is what do you do for laryngitis? Don't tell me to run to the store because my car is snowed in and I don't feel like scooping it out.
2. Do you have acid reflux? If so, what do you do for it?I also have erosive esophagitis (EE). Taking the right thing is very important. But I'm having trouble finding out what that is.
So...........with acid reflux and laryngitis.........I need HELP???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you, my new friends.
Joan

Thanks Anne, but I don't think there is any way one can help me at work. I'm a cashier and it's the Christmas season. As far as the acid reflux, I HAVE been to the doctor. But I don't like medicine. I'm always looking for an alternative to pills.

Thank you all for your suggestions. I don't mean for this to sound like I'm complaining because I'm just stating a fact of MY life, OK?
I can't do the wool scarf as I'm allergic to wool. I can't hire a temp because I don't own the store, besides the fact that I've only been there a few months myself. Tea seems to be an acid reflux problem lately.
HOWEVER on the good news side of this....I found that vinegar, honey and lemon in hot water works wonders. Not only for the sore throat, but the reflux as well.
I mixed it in hot water, then let it cool to warm, even room temp. Sipped it all night. Actually slept through the night without needing cough drops.
Thanks for all of your great suggestions.

I had every intention of going to work tonight. However after a couple of phone calls, I realized that wasn't going to happen. I stopped in the store today to pick up a form I needed. When I told them I was going to be back in a couple of hours to work........they laughed at me and asked how I planned to do my job. I can at least make a squeaky noise today. Of course TODAY I have a sore throat. AND my ears are starting to itch. I'm getting better. Thanks for asking. God's Little Pencil, Joan www.sunshinehugs.comhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/iprayers
