veggies Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 started to develop a small cold last night, got hit before bed, slept through the night after the oxygen brought me out of it. woke up this morning and felt a heavy shadow, turned into a nasty morning zinger that i killed with oxygen again, but i've been stuffed up all day and had a little cough, and have been shadowing really, really hard all day. i consider myself the luckiest CH sufferer, as i only get hit every other day and usually only once at night after i fall asleep. but ive had to use my o2 like five times in teh past 24 hours and have been blowing my nose all day, and it hurts so bad anyone else experience a terrible time with a cold while in cycle?

Pixie-elf Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Anytime I get a head cold, sinus infection, upper respiratory infection, my CH acts up a hell of a lot worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiny Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Yepper. Add that congestion to the CH and off to hell we go. > Steam helps me. Try a hot shower if ya like showers. Otherwise, a hot, wet washcloth wrapped around rice in a sock nuked for 2 minutes helps loosen it up. Often wake to find a wet rice pack loose in the bed. The dragon will return tho. Benadryl also seems to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
