Reccomend me a cold medication? Hints on how to maintain productive even thought my head is an orb of snot?

"Tylenol Sinus" apparently is the best you could hope for.

I took some Nyquil last night, I heartily recommend it.

nyquil knocks me out. i love it for this, but it might not be what you're looking for.

perhaps "DayQuil"

Would trucker speed work? re: http://ilx.wh3rd.net/thread.php?msgid=5727263

if you're slightly snotty when you're at the dive schools in Thailand (it can hinder the popping of the ears as you descend and thus make life very unpleasant)they give you Thai strength pseudoephedrine, I'll never forget leaning over the side of the boat while trying to fit my kit together while quite literally a stream of snot came pouring out of my nose for about a minute. I've never seen the likes of it. sorry if anyone's eating right now.

How do you tell if you have a cold or allergies? What I have seems not as bad as a cold when I get them, but worse than my usual allergy-related problems. Sore throat, a cough, occasional stuffiness, stiff neck. Echh.

No nyquil or dayquil, it will make you think like a (mildly) schizophrenic person. I reccommend afirin or the like though to deal with snot, and if you're congested, get something with that guafensin shit in it, but no dextromorphen. Aren't there like fifty threads on this? But yeah, feel better.

Also, Jon try EMERGEN-C! to fill your body with vitamins to help fight the cold. (Good luck with exams, btw)

Maybe get some COLD-EEZE lozenges - the twee cold medicine that really works.

Another vote for Tylenol Cold. Seems to do a good job of warding off the symptoms.

My right sinuses have been retaken by the forces of good. However, breathing into my left nostil makes my whole head feel like I just blew a huge line of cocaine, except without the good feelings. :(
