Sounds intense, right? Well don't sweat it, this isn't a morbid blog... promise.
Last weekend in Kona Hailey started off sick... she was the only one. Over the weekend people were dropping like flies, one by one more people were getting sick. I was proud of my immune system, I was holding strong! We were sharing drinks, suckers and food and I still wasn't getting sick! I felt completely above the world... I conquered the sickness that was holding my friends hostage... that is until I got home on Monday. I woke up with a sore throat and a slightly stuffy nose. The sore throat is gone (thank goodness), but the stuffy nose has turned into a completely clogged left nostril. It's Friday already and IT'S STILL PLUGGED! You know when your sick and you lay to one side, the other nostril drains into that side you're laying on? And so you have to switch back and forth between sides? Ok well there is ZERO drainage going on. My nose is completely clogged. So clogged that blowing does nothing but hurt my ears and makes my nose rubbed raw. Oh and did I mention I look like I was beat with the ugly stick? I guess having glazed eyes, red nose, and mouth constantly open...even when I eat (I can't shut it or else I wouldn't be able to breath) isn't attractive, who would have guessed! I've stocked up on NyQuil & Daytime stuff, Tylenol PM and Sudafed and nothing is working. Any ideas?? I'm open to any and all suggestions! Have pitty and leave a comment that might lift my spirit :)
Poor girl! Does your nose feel better when you are taking a shower? I know that at least for Carson whenever he seems stuffy I take a shower with him and he seems to feel better. But I'm guessing you are still bathing... at least hopefully.. so I guess that doesn't work. uhh try to stick with one medication instead of a bunch of stuff. your body probably needs to just get use to the one to help fight it off. I always used nyquil at night and dayquil at day. GOOD LUCK!! Hopefully you get all of that nastiness out soon!!
