I haven't crossed that bridge yet myself but I do believe anything with the name Tylenol in it is a safe bet. The Waldorf support group was supposed to distribute a small card with safe OTC meds listed on it but that never came.  I'll ask Kay about it and forward it if I get it. --Eric

Hi Darla, I am sorry you are sick.  As long as you stay away from NSAIDS  (Motrin-Ibuprofen, Naprosyn & etc) you wil be fine.  You can take your nyquil.   I hope you get to feeling better sson. Hugs, baby

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.

Oh Man. I'm sorry you aren't feeling well. I DO know that you have to stay away from any remedies that have Ibuprofen in it. But other than that, I guess others are fine. Thank the Lord I haven't gotten sick yet. Get well soon!!

This will be the only time that I will be referred to as a loser.......

You can get tylenol in a liquid cold formula. It is pretty good.
