I have a nasty summer cold. My head is all stopped up and hurting and I feel like crap! Just this constant pounding over and over! I rarely ever get sick but the summer cold is the worst. I have mild allergies too so some of this could be that. I feel like something is standing on my face. Any recommendations on good OTC meds?

When I have a cold, I will do just about anything for the blue Tylenol. It's a liquid, so it's obviously not fantastic to have to swallow, but it works sooooo well. I think it's for nighttime and the orange one is for daytime, but I take the blue during the day too because it works better than the orange (cold symptoms are worse at night). It doesn't make me that sleepy anyway.

If I need a strong decongestant, I'll break down and get something with pseudephedrine, which you have to get from the pharmacist, but it will dry up your sinuses.

I've been sick since I posted. I've not tanned or been to the gym. My husband said he knew I was sick when I didn't do those two things. I'm feeling a bit better today. I'm planning on going to tan at least today. I think I had a virus. I started having tummy troubles along with all the headache and sinus stuff. I feel weak but better. I'll be glad to get back to my old self again.
