To be sat with menthol tissues shoved up my nose?

[SamuelWestsMistress]

I started to get ill over a week ago. It started off with pain in my neck glands and it's gradually spread EVERYWHERE. You know one of those colds that just lingers on and on and on and on and on...

Well yesterday the blocked up snottage began and it's driving me nuts. I feel like I'm suffocating especially when lying down because that's when the COUGH WHEEZE COUGH WHEEZE starts.

I've been through 3 packets of tissues today. Lemsip makes me feel like spewing so it's no use and the only relief I have slightly managed to get is from shoving menthol tissues right up my nostrils.

AIBU to think like wasps colds have NO point to them what so ever other than to make us miserable?

YADNBU!

Mine's been lurking since October (YES, bloody OCTOBER!) - I had about three weeks free, now I have another complete with sinus infection grrr. Nose is so sore I can't feel anything much up there, it's numb, and I can't tell when it's dripping until it actually comes out of my nose (tmi). So I have been sitting with tissues shoved up my nose, both menthol and normal ones .

PS HappiNose is good for soothing at night or when you don't have to be seen in public!

Crystal menthol, that's the way to go
