The Grand Narrative

Apologies

( “Abandoned” by lydurg)

Sorry to the dozens of people who’ve written comments and/or sent emails in the last few days, but I’ve been struck down with a terrible flu that confines me to bed when I’m not at work, and gives me pounding headaches whenever I so much as think about moving.

Please keep writing and/or sending them though, and I’ll answer them all as soon as I’m able. And keep visiting the blog too, because I’ve already got four posts scheduled to appear this week, wisely written back while I was still coherent.

Sigh. Back to trying not to pass out at my desk. On the plus side though, I’m very grateful that there’s no restrictions on medicines with weak speed pseudoephidrine hydrochloride in Korea…munch munch munch…

    Thanks guys. Olek, most cold medicines here have it. I use allegra-D/알레그라-D, which has pseudoephidrine. When you ask for medicines, look for “슈도에페드린” in the ingredients. Every pharmacist I’ve spoken to has known what it is (as they should).

    Be aware though, that by clearing blocked noses, it’s actually preventing your body from combating the cold. I use cold medicines only when absolutely necessary, because if I do then it means I’ll have the cold for much longer.
