Life Saviour - Unusual Chronic Cough Remedy

Today, I would like to share an unforgettable chronic cough experience I had a few years back when I was working / residing in Singapore. Out of no reason, I was down with chronic cough for a month plus! It was torturing and put me almost breathless. So serious that I coughed whole day for a month plus, I had trouble getting-up from my bed, standing and extremely exhausted for only a few foot steps...I was so weak and I could hardly eat...

I thought, I had contracted tuberculosis or some kind of chronic bronchitis or lung infections but after medical investigations, I had none of those. I consulted many modern medical doctors from private clinics, private hospitals and government hospital. I was even taken to Singapore's famous cough specialist by my ex-boss but nothing works! In fact, the medications / drugs were "killing" me....my body ached all over and my kidneys were in great pain each time I consumed the prescribed medications. I thought I was dying....

As a last resort, I turned to Chinese herbal specialist, a generations trusted old brand, Eu Yang San herbal retail chain. The herbal specialist inspected my condition, looked at my tongue, asked a few questions and recommended a remedy to me with full confidence that I would be cured within 3 days!!!  I was asking myself "Are you sure?" So I asked him, what actually caused my chronic cough? He told me, it was nothing, it was just a hot / heat cough which is curable! I was like "Huh???!!! I had seen so many doctors and specialist and it was not cured" I then told him, I didn't have fever and the doctors did not detect any fever. He replied, "Yes, modern medical could not detect such "heat" as it is underlying within the body - only by inspecting the tongue, pulse and assessing the cough conditions, could this "heat" be detected visually, not by termometer." He further explained, there are two type of cough, i.e. hot cough and cold cough.  So, a few lessons learned.

So, I asked, what herb was he recommending? He smiled and pushed 6 boxes of yellow box to me. Reading the Chinese wording on the boxes...I was stung for a while. I asked him "Are you sure? Snake bile fluid???" (snake liver acid, in other words) He said, "Yes...the only effective remedy for such condition. Other herbal mix might take too long to cure or unable to fully cure the hot cough."  Having no option, I agreed to his recommendation. I asked him, why the yellow box type and not other colour? He said, since I had cough for about 1 month plus, my hot cough would have subsided...so stronger dosage was not recommended.

How it tastes like? Ewwwww....so smelly like snake! The snake bile fluid is processed into powder form, so it is easy to mix with warm water and go down the throat. Religiously, I medicated myself with the unusual remedy and true enough...within 3 days, my cough was completely cured!!!!

I hope this information has been valuable to those who suffer from "strange", prolonged and chronic cough and could not find the cure. It could be just hot cough or cold cough....Isn't that unusual? Some times, you thought modern science would help us but it turns out to be otherwise.....time honoured natural remedies are still needed to fill in the blank which modern medical science could not resolve.

Lastly, the snake bile remedy is not cheap but in overall, it is still cost effective and affordable if to compare with all my visits / medications to private clinics / hospital and specialist, plus, it shortened my suffering. Those who works on hourly / daily wage, you need to recover fast or there would be no income. So, be smart and make the right decision....
