Re: Phlegm

Phlegm as in mucus or phlegm as in stoicism ? Get rid of the first but hang on to the second is my view.

As a kid, I suffered from Chronic Catarrh, I think this was due to the poor Socio Economic situation that prevailed at the time.

Re: Phlegm

What a revolting subject Spitty.
I can't stand seeing those blokes who suddenly cough and spit out a load of phlegm on the pavement, right where everyone's walking.

And as you get older you may find that pollen ( especially tree pollen ) exacerbates the problem , at least it gives me grief.
Find that antihistamines help.
