I have been sick with a bad cough, sneezing and dizziness for 6 days now:baby: Can't even sleep because I'm coughing so much. But, I do have my laptop in bed.

Went to urgent care and all they gave me was a decongestant on Sunday and it isn't doing crap.

Anyone else have it or had and know how to get rid of it?

Times like this I still wish I worked for one of the Dr's offices....OK not:rofl:

I was down and out for two weeks this year and lost 20 pounds. Sleep and fluids for the cold. Tried mucinex for the first time for the cough and I was sleeping through the night in two days.

Get better soon! :grd:

My son came down with it a couple months ago and at 4 months old - he was in ICU for a week and a half b/c he couldn't eat or breath on his own. He still isn't sleeping through the night. Tough year for colds.

About 2 weeks ago, I had the same thing (for the 4th time this year). I also went to the urgent care and all I got was an earful of how “it’ll go away on its own”. Was weak, dizzy and had nigh time fever. I just rested up along with lots of fluids and it went away after about 3 days.

Have you tried your regular doctor? Maybe prescribe some antibotics…????

Hopefully he gets fully recovered soon :D I know I would rather be sick then my kids.

Not yet :( If I'm not any better tomorrow I will.

I should have picked up some antibiotic's while I was in Mexico :joker:

You sounded bad when I talked to you the other day, lots of it going around up here.

Zithromax from Mexico is the best. I try to stock up when there, they sure don't like to perscribe what realy works just charge ya 100 bucks and tell you your sick. :rolleyes:

Hope you get well soon.

Call your doctor and get a prescription for a Z-Pack.
