arrow32 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 I've had a cold or sinus for about a week now an there killing. Not sure which it is but it's getting old fast I just feel drained when I get up in the mornings but as the day wears on I get to feeling better. Just wish it'd hurry up and go away!

Jeramie Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Allergy season is horrible right now..... If its that bad you probably should go to the doctor and get it checked out. Sometimes a round of antibiotics can clear that stuff right up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bug House Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Its been terrible...I've had it, wife & kids got it.......and it lingers!! Lots of docs won't give antibiotics for colds anymore, lots of resistant organisms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevebeilgard Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 i'm thinking the doctor will tell you to drink a quart or 2 of orange juice daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Take a multivitamin and vitmain c here Cody, seems to help. Dunno about antibiotics, seems dr's these days are not as quick to write scripts for them. Have had our son in a few times for fever, cough and, runny nose and they won't give him anything. Tell us to give him zyrtec and take our co pay. Sucks to have a kid that is not getting better for a month and you take him back and the dr's seem like they could care less. Sinus/allergy stuff is bad here right now though, been taking zyrtec myself the past week or so, it helps. Had a sinus migraine Saturday and Sunday, not much fun. About all else, you may want to try a sinus wash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrow32 Posted October 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Make it go away Vitamins might help here I don't know. Forgot to mention everytime I go I they want me to get something like nuking my sinus because there screwed up just don't want the few days off work right now. I had forgotten about that but id say that's my issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeygirl Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 Take Mucinex D.....lots of people coming to the urgent care I work at with colds...the PA usually recommends salt water gargles and Mucinex D (it's behind the counter, at least in NY)...lots of fluids....I myself like to take a clove of garlic...swallow it whole...or cook with garlic as garlic is a natural antibiotic. I just had a cold about a week ago.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUDRUNNER Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 It may be a sinus infection if you've had it for that long. I've had several and they are no fun....usually I have kind of a hang over feeling and light headed along with the congestion. It may be worth a trip to the doc. I generally ask for a shot instead of a perscription for things like that. It works much faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
