There is a fucking rock in the middle of my chest.

Things I have tried/used to attempt to dislodge the rock:

Hot herbal tea.
Hot ginger tea with honey
Hot ginger tea with honey and lemon
Hot ginger tea with honey, lemon and cayenne

Chicken soup
Turkey soup
Chicken & turkey soup

Mustard plasters

Eucalyptus lozenges

Nasal vapor inhaler

Hot compresses - dry
Hot compresses - wet

Vicks in a steam infusion (head over pot covered with towel)
Vicks directly applied to the chest

Chest percussion

Extra-Strength Mucinex

Nothing is working

NOTHING IS GODDAMN WELL WORKING

A) Guaifenesin
Generic is cheap as hell. Take a bigass dose - it's very, very difficult to OD on this stuff. Wash it down with a quart of water. Mucinex is good, but the suggested dose on the bottle should be quadrupled.

B) Melatonin
Down two pills and get in bed. Sleep is a great healing blam, and a doublre dose of Melatonin will knock your ass right the fuck out.

a) Done, and seems to have helped somewhat since yesterday.

b) I have spent the majority of the last 4 days in bed, asleep. Last night's rants were a case of waking up from discomfort, shrieking in print, and going back to bed again. Blurgh.
