Sicker Than I Was Yesterday

I was hoping I'd feel better by now, but my cold has gotten worse. I have not even bothered to get up or get dressed today. Mostly I have slept, when I've been able to. The worst part is I can't take any cold medications because they interact with my prescription meds. I was told I can take an antihistamine and Tylenol, and that's it. I was hoping I could have some Nyquil to knock me out, but nope. The pharmacist said not to take it with my antidepressant.
So I guess I will just tough it out. Maybe tomorrow I'll feel a little better. For now, I'm going to try to sleep again. I'll catch up on here when I can later.

Yes, I need to drink more water and hot tea. I also bought some orange juice since vitamin C is supposed to be good when you're sick.

Hope you feel much better soon. Sometimes it is best to drink the hottest tea with honey that you can take and then wrap up warm and sweat it all out.

I always tough the colds out since I hate medicine. I just rest, drink lots of orange juice and water and pray of course too. =)

I think you may be right. I do tend to get sick whenever I'm stressed out over something.

Try taking a hot shower to loosen up the congestion. I find it helps when nothing else does. Fix yourself a hot cup of tea too. It is soothing.

I do not know why have you taken Tylenol. I think this is for Arthritis.
