Sick and not doing well with cold meds...

I have a nasty cold, I knew it was coming so I had my meds all ready. Each time I take them though I feel like my stomach is literally trying to crawl up and out of my body, it's not really a pleasant feeling. I have tried several and they all do it, I tried doing it with food in my stomach too and that seems to make it worse. 

Not really looking for advice, just wanted to whine a bit, since the only person in real life who seems to care is my two year old LOL He keeps patting my head and saying "poor mommy, feel yucky", I  him! :)

I am sorry you are not feeling well! Are you taking liquid form cold meds? I am not sure if you can take tablets, but those might settle better than the liquids. I am newly sleeved so I am not certain about cold meds, but I thought I would throw it out there. I hope you feel better soon...p.s., your two year old sounds adorable!

 I have taken both, with the same results! Thanks for the suggestion though. It does not last long, but it's uncomfortable while it does. I will just suck it up for the 30 or so mins, b/c this runny nose is MORE annoying LOL 

And the two year old, I might be biased, but I think he is pretty cute - Here he is in our local pie eating contest (two days before my revision!) and the two blondies on either side are my other boys LOL

I would just try to do without the cold meds.  They do help the symptoms, but don't help you get over the cold any faster.  You'll just have to choose between the cold symptoms or the tummy symptoms.  The best thing is rest, fluids and sweet kids who make your heart happy.

I have set myself up on the couch with my shakes and water jug, and told everyone else they are on their own! LOL
