Day four of this miserable sickness. It's moved into my chest now, so I'm coughing more. I can't taste anything because my sinuses are swelled shut. My head hurts and I'm aching all over. To think this all started with a scratchy throat and slightly stuffy nose.
I've had to use nasal spray every night just to be able to sleep. I think I'm getting immune to its effects, though, because it doesn't seem to last as long as it's supposed to. I end up waking up way too early because I can't breathe through my nose. Which, of course, makes me very, very tired.
I may go take a nap now. I'll use the nasal spray and hope it lasts long enough for me to get some rest. I hate colds.

I'm sure you've tried it all, but I found Nasacort worked well for me last year when I had an allergy war with Mother Nature. I also have an albuterol inhaler that I puff and exhale through my nose with my finger underneath like I'm trying to stop a sneeze. I think some of the bronchodilator gets back in the sinus cavities. Even if it's psychosomatic, it helps. Hope you feel better, Old Chum.
