Cough Syrup?

I'm pretty sure I'm developing a sinus infection.  I called my dr.'s office this morning and they told me to get Sudafed.  After I got to the pharmacy I realized this wouldn't help me cough, but the pharmacist wouldn't tell me anything to take.  He just said I would have to call my dr.  Dr's office closed at lunch and I have lost the number for my 24 hr nurse.  I have a friend that is a pharmacist I could call, but I'm afraid he will tell me the same thing.  Does anyone have a dr. recommendation on something that would be okay? 

I realize there may be another paragraph in there.  Sorry if I'm using bad grammar.  Being married to a writer has made me paranoid about that.

    I'm of no help, I had a cold that refused to move out of my chest last week...I could just feel the fluid sitting there..when I called my doc's office the only thing the nurse told me I could do was use a humidifier and suck on peppermints.  It's pretty much cleared up now but I don't know if what she told me to do worked or if it just ran it's course.

    not much you can take.

    I would make a hot lemon/honey tea...which is basically hot water with a whole lemon squeezed into it and lots of honey 

    you can take benedryl too and that can make you sleepy so you can get some good sleep?

    feel better!
