CC, have you tried a dehumidifier? Dry air can make it really difficult when you're congested and coughing.

DH seems to have developed a sinus infection so has contacted his doctor.

Agree! I will only go in if I completely lose my voice or if I get pink eye, which may be next as my eyes are more watery than usual.

Seems like a lot going around. I would think after a few days it just has to run its course (seems like most medications work only in the initial stages).

"Have I mentioned that I hate being cold?" Giiirrl, same!

Like CC I feel a little better each day, but man, this thing just won't go away. New symptoms are puss on the remnant of my left tonsil (I had them out in grad school) and very hoarse voice. I think I will lose it if I keep talking. Weird thing is my throat really doesn't hurt. Still have a lot of congestion and a little headache from the congestion. Thinking because of the length of this illness, it might be more than just a common cold but still probably nothing that can be done for it.

Feeling slightly better today. Still clogged and sneezing. Hoping tomorrow is better still.

Both DH and I love Tommy Bahama! Good idea to get used off EBay. DH does a lot of EBay shopping. Unfortunately, I pay full price from their online store or when in Hawaii, the physical store! I think there might be one in Naples, road trip!
