UGH..I am sickkkkkkkk
Ugh..I am SO SICK!
I cant breathe, I am congested dizzy, I sneeze every 2 minutes, my chest is killing me. I called out of work today because I just couldnt function. I dont even see how I will drive tomorrow, I am sooooooooo dizzy.
I know they say you can take sudafed but I really dont want to. I tried a hot shower and it made me more stuffy. Anyone else have any other ideas??

Re: UGH..I am sickkkkkkkk
I got really sick last week, still a little sick even today (I missed work all last week). My doc said that tylenol cold and robitussin (sp?)were fine to take. Well after taking them from Sun-Wed, and not getting better, she gave a prescription for a zpak. That finally helped me. Now at least I can function and I am back at work.
Call your doctor and see what they recommend for you to take...feel better

If your chest is hurting, it sounds like you need an antibiotic. You want to treat it before it turns into pneumonia. Call your doctor to get something. Also, you could try those SudaCare Shower Soothers. You put a tablet into the bottom of the shower with you, and breathe in the vapors. It kind of makes it like a "Vicks Shower". It releases menthol and eucalyptus vapors. My OB said it was safe.
