Odd question

ladybug · Oct 25, 2008

Thanks for the input! I'm glad I'm not alone... though not glad any of us run fevers! LOL.... they're quite uncomfortable. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

I always thought if you had a fever (this is usually the first thing they ask when going in for a cleanout), its a BAD thing (not bad to my body cause i know it means i'm fighting something off, but just a bad sign), so its interesting to know that with all my extra effort to get this gunk out of my lungs, a fever is a "welcome" thing.

Am interested to see if any other CFers experience these low-grade fevers with huffing and coughing. It almost like I can literally bring on a fever once I start really focusing on coughing super hard when all day (without making myself cough) I've been fine. Peculiar!

Thanks,

I know that during exercise your temperature rises. But I didn't know why. So I looked it up.
More then 70% of the energy that powers your muscles is lost as heat, causing your body temperature to rise during exercise.

That must be some vigorous coughing.

hey there!

I know 100% what you're talking about. I've been going through the same thing with low grade fevers and coughing, especially lately. Like you, the only thing that helps is pain killers and rest with out much junk being brought up and out of my lungs. I have no idea why it happens and I haven't inquired about it at the doc's office. We're just lucky, I guess. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">
