What do you take when you are sick?

Hello RnY family,

What kind of meds do you take when you have a cold and/or cough? I was just getting over bronchitis and now have some kind of cold and feel like crap. Need some suggestions on what to do. I figure my immune system is low from surgery 2 1/2 months ago and the whole nutrition thing so I may be more suseptiable to getting sick. Is this true and if so what can I do to help from getting sick all the time? Thanks guys

I'm wondering the same thing. I have been feeling like crap for the last couple of days. With it being in my chest and head. I go to the center on Tuesday for my 6 month checkup; i'm hoping I can make it until then and they can tell my what I can take. I'm pretty sure I need an antibiotic also.

I was told when i asked that as long as the product doesn't have motrin or aspirin in it (that could cause bleeding) that it was ok to take.

Liquid tylenol cold works great.

I took Tylenol cold and sinus and had plenty Vicks around (machine ran all the time and the Vicks Puffs with lotion are awesome) and I was over mine in less than a week.
