I just caught a cold

[AStar617]

My nose is stuffed right now... nothing left to blow either, it's just fvcking hermetically sealed. I can't breathe through either nostril, but sometimes it's left-only or right-only, apparently just to piss me off even further. 'Tis the season, I suppose.

No Halls lozenges or Vicks Vaporub in the house FTL :| Grrrrrr. Anyone know any home remedies that work well as a nasal decongestant?

I'm just getting over one. I can sympathize.

Nothing works as well as Sudafed.

 

[newnameman]

Take some Cold-EEZE®.

Nose washing?

 

[SmoochyTX]

Still getting over one myself.

Mucinex-DM and Delsym are the best things in the world.

Got to the store and pick up some Afrin nose spray

Get the stuff that you spray up the nose. Works like a champ and lasts for hours!

Heard cocaine works pretty well too, but it's expensive

Hahahaha, as Rick James said..."It's one helluva drug"

I'm sick too but I completely lost my voice. It's really annoying not being able to talk.

Cold = no falsetto

That sh|t is horrible. It has the worst rebound effect. I've used it before and everytime the stuff would wear off the sinus congestion would come back 10 fold.

Everyone's getting sick. I might have, for the first time ever, dodged a bullet this year.

*knocks on wood*

I Babelfished the back of the Colombian label, and side effects apparently include elevated heartrate, nosebleeds and sleeplessness. A nosebleed would just irritate me more, so I'll have to pass.

My oldest brother too. He can't remember ever being able to breathe through both nostrils simultaniously. Fresh cut grass is like Kryptonite to him, it's messed up.
