I think you should post on the internet about it.

I did, that didn't help. I meant medications, Tucker. Something OTC.

Get a powerful wet-dry vac with a really small hose attachment. Slide that up your nose, pinch the other nostril close, and slurp out all the mucus. Repeat as necessary.

Flonase (or something like it) (nasal spray). For cough it depends on what kind of cough. This may sound nuts but sometimes when I've gotten stuffed up I've taken a bath with Johnson & Johnson's baby bath that smells like vapor rub. (It's in a blueish green bottle with the other baby baths) that usually helps some too (and you don't have to wear it on you all night.) and there's always cough drops too.

Flonase is over the counter? THank you. I'll go to the pharmacy and check it out. I appreciate it, ma'am.

Np, I don't know if Flonase is specifically, but there should be some kind of OTC nasal spray.

Claritin D...won't fog you out and will clear up the sinuses.

there's these vapor things you put over the drain of your shower and they vapor up whilst you shower... i don't remember who makes 'em--it's not vicks but something similar--but i guess they work pretty well? we have 'em in our health & beauty aisle. i also recommend coricidin HB... it's for people with high blood pressure, which i don't have, but it still seems to work reeeeally well and it's OTC as well.

Go out and rent a gun and buy a bullet. Load purchased bullet into rented gun, take rented gun and point the barrel to your temple. Then put your finger on the trigger and apply pressure until you no longer feel sick.

Are you coughing up junk? Try muconex (sp?). It's behind the counter but is purchased without a Rx.
Hint: Take it well before this party and DO NOT take it at night. You will wake up many times to cough out stuff.

Or just stay in your bedroom during the party.
You don't want to fraternize with those savages anyway.

Sounds like a typical night for Janet Brown.

Just make sure you use the right product for the right issue.

I haven't smoked in a long time, but I do work in a bar, so I'm sure I am getting some of that second hand stuff

As was said before, nasal spray and some form of vaporub. Take a decongestant as well
