Getting a nasty cold!

I'm 7 weeks post op, and feel like I got hit by a bus today! Tired, achy, sore throat, post nasal, cough, etc...

What can we take for a nasty cold? Or possibly the flu?

Tylenol products with no codeine. That's about it...Chicken Soup too....

I came home from the hospital last Sunday and came down with a cold as well. Just been riding it out...You can call your surgeons office and they can assist you in the answer. But that was the answer I got when I asked. :)

I've had it for at least 2 months now. ENT dr is even stumped. Now I get to see a Neuro otologist for it..but that's another story.

Like RJ above me said, any of the Tylenol products but u may want to ask your program of they want you to take a dose of prilosec while on the otc meds. My nurse told me to add in a dose of it anytime I'm on the otc cold meds.
