HI my name is Brittnee and im 18 years
old.
A few days ago I was laying on the couch
and it just felt like everything just stop
working in the upper part of my body. My
nose gott really dry, and my mouth did
also. I dont no what's wrong with me. My
doctor put me on antibiotics cuz she
thought maybe I had a sinus infection. Im
done with the antibiotics and I still see
no improvement. I've tried the salene
nasal spays, and also the anhistamine
pills. I've tried clariton, clariton d,
and sudafed. Nothin seems to work. Can
someone help me, or give me some
suggestions on what I should do. This is
the first time this happened to me so I
dont know whats wrong. I'm trying to get
in contact with my doctor but she wont be
back in till monday. My symptons are still
the same, and i just dont no what to do.
My nose is really dry, and It seems like
the mucus is not flowing through. I dont
feel congested. My throat feels funny, and
my front glands are swollen. Im not sure
whats wrong.
Help Please!

Hey Sweetie, Not sure whats up with you
either, as I am no medical professional, I
am Mom though and I will at elast try to
help you. Gargle with warm salt water to
help your throat. If your throat is sore,
you might dilute a capful of hydrogen
peroxide into 8 ounces of water and
gargle. This will help to kill the
bacteria that is causing your sore throat.
Suck on hard candy or throat lozengers to
keep your throat coated also might help.
Drink lots of fluids, especailly warm
liquids like chicken broth, or soups that
will help "open you up". Hope you find
relief on Monday and start to feel better
soon. Hugs!

I have the exact same thing going on! Posted: 03-13-08 10:52am
I've gotten relief from breathing through
a hot wet wash rag, but that's about it!
I have cotton mouth, and my throat feels
weird, kind of sticky. I have a cough
that is seldom productive, and have just
finished two courses of antibiotics.
Sometimes it feels like there's a big lump
in my throat and it's hard to swallow. I
don't know what it is either, but if you
get any answers please, let me know!
