Both my kids have it; my wife is just getting over it; my mother is visiting and she has it. I just can't seem to escape it. Feels like I'm coming down with it. :(>>>

I just let it pass. If I take something it lasts for a week, and if I don't it only goes on for 7 days!>>>
Hi HOP! When i get the rhinovirus blues, I take COLD FX (yes, that's a plug, and No, I don't get any kickbacks) and within three days (and sometimes as quick as one), the symptoms are gone. I usually have a seven-nine day course of misery when a cold hits. Day 1, scratchy throat. Day 2, sinuses getting filled. Day 3, sinus headache and really irritated sinus cavities. Day 4, sinuses feel better, but throat's getting coated with gunk. Day 5, gunk is coating the vocal cords, so I'm squeaking, or grunting (according to my wife, I'm sounding normal). Day 6, it's going into my bronches and I'm coughing. All the time. Day seven, everything hurts - the lungs, the throat, the bronchioles, the head... Day 8 I'm cancelling the visit to Dr. Kevorkian.
With Cold FX, by the second day of the pills, I'm beginning to feel normal (such as it is...:dry: ), and by the third day, I'm past all the misery. So, if it works for you like it works for me, I'd definitely try it.>>>
