Had several miserable nights of needing to get up all night long, about every half hour, to blow my nose so I could breath. After a couple of nights of that my wife asked, "Would you like to try one of these Breath Right strips?" These things: http://www.breatheright.com/default.aspx?google=e_&rotation=3085&banner=22285&kw=303784 Well, they work. Had two sound nights of sleep since she suggested I try using them. She had some Menthol flavored ones which I used. I have been breathing good since I began using them. Still have the body and head aches associated with such maladies but at least I can breath now. Which is a big plus. Only reason I bring this up is that I had never heard of such a thing before. Bet there are a lot of people who haven't. Don

hunter (13,020 posts) Profile Journal Send DU Mail Ignore3. My favorite is pseudophedrine and hydrocodone...... good luck getting your doctor to agree. It works great -- you can spread the cold virus everywhere and feel just fine. But seriously, I hate school attendance awards and employers who are stingy with sick days. If you are sick with a communicable illness then STAY HOME! Don't share it. Tell the Gawd Damned Puritans with their "work ethic" and "purposeful suffering" to shove off. There ought to be a law...

So do these two go together? I mean if you have a cold do you have to use the saline spray before or after you have an orgasm if you want to clear your sinuses?
