Food, drink and metal mouth food suggestions please!

Oh dear, that sounds like you were rather desperate! Last time I used the coloxyl I had an ‘oops’ moment, luckily I was at home though! 
I am thinking I will get this cough checked out by my GP if it doesn’t settle soon, as I’m not back at the hospital until 25th Jan. It’s starting to feel a bit like a cold, which is strange as I’ve been hiding out at home & not gone anywhere to have caught a cold.
