This is the only thing I catch, bronchitis, for up to 4 months at a time. Found out my windpipe collapses while I am sick which makes it very hard for me to breath all those months. For the cough, if you eat 2 bananas a day, every day (with the speckles on the skin is the best time to eat) or you can take NAC supplement, both will work. I have it right now and I found something that will take 80% of the burn in the lungs away…it is not holistic though, have some gout medicine (indomethacin, 25 mg) which works 80% to take the burn away! Cannot find any holistic that can do that so far. I tried the methylene blue breathing in nebulizer, first through mouth but it burned going down so tried by mouth but the taste is terrible, could not do so just doing drops (10 at a time in distilled water with straw). Trying several suggestions on this site to see if it can turn this around, going on my 4th week (doing lomatium and mullein and lots of supplements, h. peroxide). Just adore this site, thank you for everyone's input!!!

I diagnosed myself with viral bronchitis picked up while in public. Actually, it may be bacterial because of the symptoms. I probably picked up a virus or bacterium that invaded mu Upper respiratory tract and led to the bronchitis. Please do not go in public when you're sick. 7 miserable days later I now feel much better. I did not go to the doctor, as I treated myself at home. It was rough going but I am almost back to normal. 1 more day should do it, other than still having some bronchial secretions.
Highly recommend a pot of water heated to steam with 4 drops peppermint and 6 drops eucalyptus oils in it. Add 2 drops clove oil for sore throats. Do this 3 or 4 times/day about 15 mins or longer each time. Drink an organic non caffeine tea every 6 hrs. I used ginger pear tea with chamomile and lemon. I added more organic lemon juice to taste and 2 tablespoons of RAW organic honey. I added a few drops of clove oil and 2 drops of mountain oregano oil. Do not use more oregano as it is powerful and will burn your mouth, but two drops is fine. Add 2 drops of peppermint oil too. Get plenty of rest and sunshine For your immune system. Take some vitamin d too. Try not to eat too much as the blood digesting the food could be used to fight the inflammation. I should be ready to go to church tomorrow. 7-8 days to fix what can easily take up to a month to improve with traditional medical advice. hopes this helps someone.
