I have such a bad cold

My dr told me I can only take Benadryl for three day and some tylenol thats it. I have a stuffy nose, sore throat that feel raw everytime  i drink tea with honey and a nasty cough. I dont no what else to do I cant sleep and all I do is cough all night long and keep waking up my husband. Did your ob/gyn tell you it ok to take something else because this isnt working

 

Re: I have such a bad cold

  • I have the exact same nasty cold and my dr gave me the same instructions, but didn't limit the days for the Benadryl.  I think Benadryl only works if it's allergy related and I know this is a bad cold.  I don't have any advice except to say that I'm miserable too!

    Vick's Vapor Rub can work wonders, as can draping a towel over your head and hanging over some hot water. As for the sore throat, my mom always tells me to gargle with warm salt water...it really does help! I'm sorry you're not feeling well, but maybe this will help?

     

    oh, and I'm sending virtual chicken soup vibes your way Wink
