iheartcats Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Hi everyone,I haven't been on lately as I've been too wiped out after work and such, you know how it is!Unfortunately, I came down with a cold last week and the thing won't go away. It's mostly turned into cough and congestion and fatigue a week later and the congestion is really getting to me. I'm just feeling so exhausted, too, as you know how colds/etc. wear us down more.I'm barely getting through my job (I've only been there a short time so I'm in a no-choice situation). :unsureCould severe congestion a week after a cold be a sinus infection? I've put a call into the Dr. but haven't heard back yet...what can I do to make it better? I've been on Mucinex.And...how can I get back on my feet with POTS after this? I'm so tired and at least have to get back to my baseline to not be feeling completely awful everyday.Thanks for listening, it's been a bad week!

firewatcher Posted July 12, 2011 Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Mucinex and Afrin nasal spray. Get a nasal steroid if you have to. I'm sorry you've got this again.(((((((((Cat_Lady)))))))))))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartcats Posted July 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2011 Ahhhh thanks Firewatcher. I went years without a 'cold' (I had a flu a couple of times, but not too bad due to the flu shot). But...now it's my second this year and worse!I'm using Mucinex but they said I could only use Afrin for 3 days. Boo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
