Cold Medicine - Wouldn't you know it, finally feel better from surgery, now I have a bad cold

So, I finally feel a lot better from surgery, feeling great as a matter of fact then wham super bad head cold that knocks me on my tail. I normally take Nyquil for colds, should that be an issue once you are sleeved? Any suggestions?

I caught a cold/sinus infection 3.5 weeks out. I was able to take tylenol cold/tylenol allergy caplets (spelling?). They went down fine, just drank it with a bit of water/fluids. Doc said as long as its about m&m size it should be fine.

I got a sinus infection 2 weeks after surgery. I was taking Mucinex D (behind the counter with the pharmacist) and using a neti pot with distilled water and salt to help with the congestion right after a shower, followed by afrin spray. I helped so much and I'm almost back to normal now.
