Finally after five full weeks of dreadful chemical bronchitis I have control of the coughing without antibiotics.<\/p>\n

I can at last sleep in the evening without 3-4 hours of coughing. Also in the mornings I awaken with no cough.
\nThis is after 22 hours of sauna & heavy niacin dosing & supplementation.<\/p>\n

I still intend to do the full 100 hours of sauna detox and am by no means fully well yet. My chest is still infected.<\/p>\n

I will remain vulnerable to chest infection until this is fully mended which will still take weeks.<\/p>\n

All of this because I breathed in solvent fumes for a few days.<\/p>\n

I am taking herbal replacements for antibiotics, echinacea, olive leaf, oregano oil & beta glucan.<\/p>\n

I can add a few more things to assist my immune system & negate the phlegm – will add those in coming days.<\/p>\n

Also I have used my autogenics to suppress the urge to cough & heal my lungs.<\/p>\n

I believe the initial chemical exposure damaged the lining in my bronchial tubes. This is somewhat similar to burning your skin with acid. In turn it becomes vulnerable to infection & becomes itchy.<\/p>\n

So a cough is much like an itch – if you keep doing it the wound will not heal.<\/p>\n

So the phlegm and infection must be handled at the same time that you reduce the cough. In this way the cycle of chronic illness can be broken.<\/p>\n

Fortunately weight training & cardio are good for the condition and my training remains unaffected albeit under far less comfortable circumstances.<\/p>\n

Here is some great info on the detox program http:\/\/articles.mercola.com\/sites\/articles\/archive\/2014\/05\/04\/detoxification-program.aspx<\/a><\/p>\n
