[QUOTE="Star*, post: 245533, member: 4964"] Oh Poor sick baby! Listen - I got a sinus infection/cold BEFORE Christmas. I got antibiotics the next day AND these WOWOOooo antihistamines (and when I say WOWOWOooo I mean WOWOOOOOOW hoooo fun). It's now Feb. and I still have pain in my ears. I feel like there is water in them or something. Worse yet? DF caught this same thing right before I left - despite my every attempt to spray ENTIRELY EVERYTHING IN THE HOUSE so that I didn't have to deal with MAN sickness when I got home - he still got a cold. He waited and waited and finally 2 weeks ago got some antibiotics. He's taken them and they did nothing. They also had him on Guifenessin(sp) for expectorant. (that helped some) Friday - I had to go pick up a NEW precription of some antibiotic called Levaquin - OMG they are EXPENSIVE - but in 2 days (and he only got 10 pills) they have nearly cured his stuffiness. The pharmacist said he felt we as a society had built up a tolerance to amoxcillin and the like. That's why these heavy duty antibiotics were invented. As far as your nose drying out? DO NOT LAUGH - but take some KY jelly on a Q-tip and put it UP in your nose. KY is water based and unlike petroleum jelly actually gives your poor sore nasal passages some moisture that is welcome. I used to get winter nosebleeds all the time. And dont worry about just plain KY = you don't need that your's and mine stuff- both your nasal passages are female. lol ahem.....going to the corner now to be with Abbey already there. [/QUOTE]
