I've got a humdinger of a head cold right now. This one slipped in the back door. Usually, I nail the virus with Zicam but this one disguised itself. I'm working on laryngitis too. I fly for a little over an hour tomorrow. Better hit some heavy duty decongestants beforehand.

Anyone else have a thick head for Christmas or Hanukkah?

 

Nope, no cold, but my tummy has been rumblin' for the last couple hours....too much junk food recently?

We're supposed to go out around 7:00....we'll see. If I've got a little bug, I don't want to pass it along to the older folks we are going to be with tonight.

Flying with a cold isn't fun, Patty. Hope the decongestants do the trick.

 

good luck on the flight Patty.
Those pressure changes can be deadly.

Afrin spray will help a little but if your that stuffed up it's not getting in.

 

Patty, 2 weeks ago tomorrow I started feeling a cold coming on. Took some ColdMD a neighbor had given us, took 2 that night and 2 every day after. I was blowing my nose for two days, then nothing. I sounded congested the third day but felt great. I swear by that stuff now, as I think it cut the suffering in half. But you have to catch it early. Hope you feel better for your flight, and for Christmas.

 

I brought a lousy cold home from TN 7 days ago and am still coughing.

 

I'm thinking mine may be a sinus infection too but I don't know. To top it off, my right knee and are wrist are swollen. I guess it's RA.

 

Started with the sniffles 4 days ago and hit the airborne (effervescent variety). Took it all day and felt like crud, but the next day the sniffles were gone. I took it one more time just in case. I try to keep that stuff on hand. If it doesn't work I usually have to see the doctor because its generally strep.

 

Xmas night 9pm. I came down with flu or food poising.... fever, chills, sweats, entire body ache head to my toes with to many hours lying on the floor of the bathroom, now a little better...

GW soon Patty

 

^I'm much better, Bill. I hope you feel better, too.

ing is the pits!

 

We both have the dreaded xmas cold here, Three days in bed only getting up to let out the dog and feed him. Still not getting any better.
