:eek: this morning I accidently inhaled a rice crispy!
I have been coughing like a smoker ever since and feel quite rough.
Any suggestions anyone? :D

ps wasn't sure if this should go in health, or injuries :confused: am a bit worried i have 'injured' my lungs!
Snort some milk up your nose! If you hear a snap crackle or pop you'll be fine...

More likely that your bronchii are a bit irritated by the coughing fit that I'm guessing you had. The irritation will be the cause of the continued coughing. I bet it will have settled by tomorrow.
The lesson here I think is that really an endurance athlete should have been eating a much more complex carbohydrate based breakfast- difficult to inhale porridge ;)

I had a friend who drowned in a bowl of muesli....Quote:

Still coughing a bit today but you'll all be gald to know I had porridge for breakfast this morning.
Glad I didn't opt for muesli!! Bit scared of it now :eek:
Thanks for your help everyone
GO SEE YOUR DOCTOR YOU SILLY BOY!
Inhaled 'all the way' and not confident you've coughed it up combined with 'feeling rough' that suggests an immune system working hard.
Go see you Doctor asap. You only get one chest full of lungs and they are pretty vital to your sport. Your choice is 'embarassment at wasting the Doctor's time' OR 'regret for the rest of your life at not going to see the Doctor'.
I'd say for a runner its a no-brainer: go see your Doctor.
How are you doing today OHW? Any change in condition?

turns out I just have a common cold - again :( - and it was nothing to do with the race crispy after all.
Still think I will stick to porridge in future though - you can never be too careful :D Thank you for your concern !
Not quite a rice crispie but this morning I inhaled....................cat food:eek:
bleugh!!
I fed the cat but before I washed my hands inadvertantly wiped my itchy nose, next thing I know I'm smelling rotten fish and trying in vain to rid my nostrils of Whiskers Salmon in jelly.............................NOT reccomended:o
God - I can still smell the stuff:(
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
:o sorry
i'm not keen on cats. Dogs though,dogs are great. Unless they are little dogs, little dogs are no better than cats. Medium sized dogs, thats what you want.
Got a different brand in Tesco today - gone for the Felix as good as it looks stuff, then in that case it may be marginally less disgusting than whiskers in jelly?!!:D
Has the smell gone yet Emmilou?
