He prescribed the Vicodin for the pain because it has been so severe.

I saw the practioner not the actual ENT. He prescribed Previcid 30 disolveable. Also Nasonex. The Previcid once a day - the Nasonex twice a day.

I'm not sure if it's helping or not yet. I have a horrible cough that just irritates the throat even more. I have a headache from caffiene withdrawal. My throat is still hoarse...but today it is better.

I am going to keep your very, very useful information to share with the practitioner if this doesn't get better. Thank you so much!
