Hello Maja, Sorry to take so long to reply. Bet you thought I never would.
The 'tickle' I was talking about was not in my throat - it was in my chest. When I took a breath, it would make me cough a little from some kind of irritation that was happening. That was the 'tickle'. The inability to sing was not from mucus but because of the tickle in my chest. When you sing, you have to take big, deep breaths but when I breathed deeply I would cough, making it impossible to sing. I could only breath very shallow-ly to avoid coughing. It did go away after a bit though. ----- Original Message ----- From: Maja Hristozova <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 26, 2003 1:04 PM Subject: CS>DMSO questions > Thaks Nicole > Unfortunatelly I didn't quite understand what you mean > by 'tickle' (English is not my first language).
