4. You definitely have my sympathy

I finally went to the doc this morning as I could not shake what I have (turns out it sinusitis).

If you are congested and/or stuffed up, I found somthing the other day that kind of helped: Sudafed "Sudacare Shower Soothers". They're tablets you put on the floor of the tub/shower stall, and when the water hits them, they release eucalyptus and other stuff. Helps clear you out.

Also, try non-caffeinated tea (Celestial Seasons has lots of different ones), DayQuil, NyQuil, liquids, and sleep sleep sleep!

If this doesn't start going away in a few days, please get to the doctor if possible.

Take care. :hug:

10. Sick here, too :(

Major sinus problems. This is what I do: drink ginger ale mixed with orange juice, take an advil cold & sinus gel cap, rub some vick's vapo-rub on my temples & take a warm bath.

Works ... sometimes.

Hope you feel better!
