I've had a cold since Thursday. Chest congestion, body aches, runny nose, stopped up nose, sneezing, cough, the whole nine.... I've tried every form of cold medicine there is with absolutely no relief. Been taking Mucinex since this started. Steamy showers, nasal rinse, nothing helps. I can't sleep well because I can't breath through my nose, but it's magically running at the same time so I'm constantly sniffing. I'm going stir crazy! I've spent the last four days on the couch with a box of Kleenex watching TV. If I get up to move around I get incredibly dizzy and winded. Tomorrow I'm scheduled to be at work at 7:30 and unless I literally cannot function I'm going,
! I haven't been to the doctor since I'm sure it's just some sort of virus. No fever and my mucous is still a healthy yellow color (sorry if that's TMI,
). I'm sure the only thing they could offer me was a steroid shot, which I don't do very well with.
So, does anybody have any magic remedies? Helpful hints? Anything? Or just some get better vibes?
