Janet,

warm compresses work well too. Do you have a vaporizer? That would work at night when you go to bed? Rub Vicks vapor rub on your thoat. That could help too. Get better. I'm just waiting to get it now. The girls that sit next to me at work
have both got it. Cough and snotty noses.

Keep your chin up that way it don't drip on your boobs..LOL
Sorry I couldn't help myself. Feel Better.

Funny Funny Linda!!! I needed a laugh. Well, I'm probably going to bed early tonight and try all the suggestions that were made. I sure hope it's gone in the morning.....

If you're not sick yet, I'd start taking Airborne now!! You can get it at Walgreens, any drug store, or grocery store. It works WONDERS! But it really only works if you start taking it before you're sick (so you don't get sick), or at the first sign of sickness.

Janet,
My mom used to run Vick's vaporub on my chest, then loosely safetypin a warm hand towel around my neck (it helped the vaporub stay there and direct it to your face). It seemed to be really soothing.

I'm sorry to say, I'm already sick and feel like crapola!! My sinuses are open, I can breath just fine, it's just that my head feels like it could explode from the pressure. Hubby is bringing me some Tylenol Sinus meds home, so hopefully it'll work magic over night.

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions. Oh, yeah....I tried the Yoga thing, I'm sorry to say it didn't help. It just made my eyes water. BUT...I am going to try it again before I go to bed.

I am so sorry you are still feeling bad. My grandmother is very old fashioned and she believes Vicks Vapor Rub is the cure all, miracle medicine. Whenever we had headaches she would rub some vapor rub on our foreheads and tie a sock loosely over it. I know it sounds ridiculous and looks even funnier but sometimes it actually worked. Don't know if it will help you, but it can't hurt. Hope you feel better.

Awww Janet , I do hope you feel better with all this medication floating around...lol But to be honest with you I had the same symptoms you did a few weeks ago . I wasn't getting better and I had to go on a three day pack of Zitromax antibodics, I felt better instantely. If your not feeling better in a few days go to the drs. for a prescription...

AWW Janet! I'm sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. My hubby has that same thing right now...I use NyQuil (nightime) and swear by it! It will knock you out but it helps with everything that is going on in your head...What I do for the painful sinuses (I know they say NEVER to do this but, I'm still here!) I use Vicks Vapor Rub... I put some on a q-tip and rub it around the inside of my nose...not just the outside edge... this helps (me) with the sinus pressure. Doctors say it doesn't do anything...Well let me tell you! I rub my neck upper chest (might want to stay away from the boob area!) I have hubby (he hates the smell) rub my upper back and lung area, wrap and pin a dish towel around my neck and cuddle on the couch with a quilt... I hope you are feeling better soon
