Ok, thanks. I have to go pick some up at the store. I can't take it any more. I hope it goes away quick.

Re: You can take...........

I called. They said I can take non-drowsy Sudafed, Tylenol or Afrin.
This sucks. I hate being sick.

Re: You can take...........

you're lucky! my dr didn't want me taking any real nose spray when i was sick - just saline spray which doesn't do much when you're actually sick!!

Go figure, then my ENT dr told me nose spray was okay....who knows

Re: You can take...........

Well, when I called I spoke with the nurse at the drs office and she said that I should really see a primary care physician to make sure I don't have any sort of infection. I told her that mainly my nose is stuffy so I think its a bad cold. Then she gave me suggestions on things to take. But you are right, everyone seems to say something different.

Re: You can take...........

it can make you crazy! But, after all of that, when I was sick in December, I took a few shots of spray - hey, a little won't hurt, right?! It would either that or I couldn't breathe

Re: You can take...........

Well, I took the Sudafed and so far it did nothing. It better kick in soon. GRRRRR!!!!

Re: You can take...........

The nurse was right about a possible indection. If it persists see a family dr. I had a sinus infection last month and they gave me a 'baby safe' antibiotic.

Re: You can take...........

I'll see if I still feel sick next week and if so, I'll go to the dr.
I'm hoping its a cold and it will just go away.

Re: You can take...........

Thanks. I am wondering if I should go to a dr tomorrow just to make sure its not a sinus infection or anything. I am sneezing, all stuffy, feel like I have a little fever, constantly blowing my nose and I had a headache yesterday.
