Is there a doctor in the house who can tell me to stop being silly?
I'm asthmatic, and as lots of asthmatics, my inhaler lives at the bottom of a very overfull bag. Anyway, last night I was a bit wheezy so took a puff on inhaler, only there must have been a small fragment of something inside the inhaler.
Breathe in. Microscopic fragment hits back of throat cue lots of coughing. Probably not an uncommon occurrence.
Anyway, while my throat isn't painful, I do feel a small uncomfortable lump there when I swallow. Dh thinks it's either psychosomatic (sp?) or a scratch (a bit like when you get something in your eye, you remove the object but "feel" it there for a long while afterwards) and I'm inclined to agree with him when I'm not lying in bed in the middle of the night imagining nightmare scenarios of embedded fragments becoming infected
So, I know those propellants in the inhalers push stuff out fast, but fast enough for the fragment to still be there? Am I just being silly? Don't really want to go for a GP visit and be laughed out the surgery...
