Re: I'm coming down with a cold

  • You can take Benadryl safely (depending on your symptoms).  I'd up the OJ/vitamin C intake.  Get lots of rest and try running a humidifier at night.  I hope you feel better soon!

  • Oh no!!!  This was me all weekend.  And still a little today.  Sudafed and Tylenol were on the safe list I found online... and I verified them both with my OB.

    I also used a Neti pot and Vicks Vapor Rub and Vicks inhaler sticks like it was my job.

    And (of course) vitamin C, OJ, lots of fluids and rest.

    Hope you feel better soon!!!!

  • I was obsessive about resting, packets of vitamin c powder in water, chicken soup and the occasional tylenol and I got mine to go away in a week (twice as long as usual for me).  Hope you feel better soon!

  • I second the neti pot and the humidifier...I had a cold a few weeks ago and these two things made all the difference.  It took me a few days of misery to finally break down and get them, but it was so worth it!  I love that neti pot...I still use it all the time when my nose is stopped up!  Take care and hope you feel better soon!
