    Sick. :(

    Thanks to the lovely people in Utah ( ) and the guy next to me on the plane ride home - who was almost downing cough syrup... i've now got myself a lovely little cold.

    It started while I was in Utah and now it's full-blown and known. My nose is dripping, my throat is clogged, and my joints are all sore. Grreeaatt.. just in time to go back to work and stand on my feet all day!

    So... what's everyone's favorite cold medicine? I NEED something good!

    Tylenol Cold here. I was sick for a week and a 1/2! I really never cough much though. I did lose my voice for 2 1/2 days! I hope you don't lose yours Kay. I hadn't had a cold in years and I'd like to know who gave it to me. Hope you get better soon.

    I, too, have come down with a cold..that's what I get for hanging around with my mom and my niece this weekend, who were both sick

    Yep, now I have to go to work with a cold...yuk. Hopefully it won't turn into bronchitis. Last year I had bronchitis on thanksgiving, then got it again 2 weeks later, then got it again for christmas, then got it again in february. At least in this job I can actually take a sick day if I need to.

    Hope you feel better, Kay...I know what it's like.

    Whatever you take, take the Cold-eez. I swear they really do help to lessen the symptoms and the duration of the cold.

    I swear by Afrin nose spray and Alka-Seltzer Plus Cold. That's all I ever use.

    Feel better!

    I am with moonsmom.. That alka seltzer plus can't be beat. It is ALL I ever use and have reccomended it to a number of people who now also swear by it.. The cold symptoms are all but gone by the next day... I find the fizzing kind hand down BETTER that the gel caps. Afrin, I NEVER leave home without it.

    Zicam. It has been proven to cut the time of your cold in half.

    Hope you feel better!

    AIRBORNE!!!

    It's like an overdose of Vit. C and IT WORKS!

    I was in the same situation as you over the holidays. We were all exposed to the same snotty nosed twins and now, me, my mom & my hubby are sick. BUT my mom is horribly sick and since I've been taking Airborne since I felt the first symptom, I have had a very mild case and so has hubby.

    Really, it does work. If you take it at the onset of a cold, it usually knocks it out right away . . . and in your case, if you took it right now, it would probably cut it in half.

    I haven't really ever took anything for a cold, so I don't know of anything.

    I do hope you feel better soon though, it really sucks to be sick. Get well soon, Kay.
