Normally I fill up on decongestants, and they really make me feel better as I get very snotty. I really miss them

Nemo666 · 18/10/2005 20:04

colditz compeltely agree on the very snotty front..lol I am usually a sudafed type of lady as my sinus get sooo blocked.

spookylips · 18/10/2005 22:30

Ds2 and I have had colds for about 2 weeks now - don't seem to be getting any better - we both have coughs that just won't shift. Just waiting for ds1 to sucumb on the eve of half term.
