Yeah. I got a bad cold. Started up yesterday. Pain in the ass too - since I'm supposed to head out to Chicago Monday.

Getting over it. Hit my chest first , then the sinuses.

Dr gave me Bactrim, and told me to use a saline spray on my nose. That saline BURNS! I've been told that it doesnt normally burn. I hope that salt-water kills bacteris/virii....

It's day 5 since it started and I am starting notice I am feeling alot better. Only taken 3 of Bactrim so far. That Saline does help clear up the sinuses alot.

Oh, I've also been hitting the zinc 50mg a day.

The following story is 100% the truth and entirely unfabricated :

Tuesday night I felt horrible like I was going to get a nasty cold. I had just had a horrible allergy/cold dripping in the back of my throat problem the previous weekend and I thought this was the 2nd wave of the 'attack'. What do I do?

Water.

Over the course of Wednesday, I kid you not when I say I drank over 3 liters of water. I took drinks at the fountain between classes, drinking water while browsing AT, everywhere. Of course I had to go to the bathroom every hour but you know what, I woke up on Thursday and felt 110% better. My cold was almost non-existent and it was totally gone by Thursday night.

Water is God!

my son had it bad last week....they have been talking about it being the same thing that the people on those cruise ships were getting...which makes sense because I didnt get it...its all hand to mouth...not tranmitted through the air....hope you are feeling better now though
