Is your nose runny? Sometimes the sore throat is caused by post nasal drip going down your throat and an antihistamine will help. I'm just suggesting that because my kids and I are going through that right now.

No runny nose, but it is def my sinus's, got the sinus headache, and itchy inner ears, and ouchie teeth, from the sinus pressure. Hope it goes away over the weekend. I have to spend all day at school Tuesday doing labs... it will be much more fun if I feel well...

Usually when it gets to my ears and teeth, I know the only thing that is going to clear it up is an antibiotic. How many days have you been sick?

You can always try the trifecta that my doctor suggested to me: Claritin, Sudafed and Mucinex. *disclaimer-I'm not a doctor, but that helps me get through the day and he said it's ok to mix those.*

I've also had some luck with the Netti Pot, which a posted about a few months ago.

You might also find the site pollen.com helpful. Every time I feel ill, I type in my zip code to see what is blooming. That way, I can tell if it is a cold or sinuses. Most of the time, the same thing is blooming; ragweed and grass. That at least saves me from wondering if I am contageous or just having an allergy attack.

I hope you feel better. I woke up with the symptoms today and had to leave work early.

Warm ginger brandy and honey is good for a sore throat. To get rid of a cold....take a triple shot of tequila and go to bed. Pull the covers over your head and pass out. Next morning, you'll wake up soaked with sweat and feeling miserable but after a hot shower, you'll generally feel good as new. It's like "shock and awe" for a cold.

Thanks for all of the advice. Im going to go pick up some Sudafed and Clairtan when I go out. Already have some Mucinex...that stuff is the bomb! Thanks for all of the wonderful advice... I really dont want this thing to make me miss anymore work...

That was my favorite but Ginger and Brandy both got married and Honey moved away

I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

Take a can of coke boil it in a sauce pan with fresh ginger and a few slices of fresh lemon.
