i dont like having a cold

[tanyapage]

i have caught the most unwelcomed cold and besides feeling all stuffed up, i feel queasy and like i am going to v*. is it just because of my cold. im starting to freak out a little.

Yeah, post-nasal drip can cause some severe nausea if you don't keep it
in check. I've never actually V* with a common cold, so I would just
try to blow my nose as much as possible =).

the funny thing is, is that i really dont have post-nasal drip this time around. i wonder if the cold is irritating my IBS....i also think i have developed an ulcer.....yesh!!

Also the simple nature of cold, that it saps your strength and that can
leave you feeling queasy. Either way, I hope it gets better for you.

I finally got over from being sick. Try to get plenty of rest, drink lots of liquids to. What I did to get the crappy stuff out was start the shower on hot sit on the floor or toilet and let the steam rise. It helped me

I always feel nausous with a cold but never v*. Just remember you are sick, and if you try to do to much then your body gets fatigued and you feel even worse. Relax, get some rest and feel better.

I have the exact problem you are describing. I have a cold almost constantly (one of the blessings of working in education) and when my nose is bothering me, so is my stomach. Every time I get a sore throat, my stomach hurts too. I have never V* with a cold, but I have come frightenly close and I know others who have V* because of their coughing.


Take some meds if you can. I can't take very much, so I just sit and deal with it. Rest, liquids, and meds can make a world of difference. Hope you get to feeling better soon.

For the first 2 years I taught I caught everything under the sun (except for sv): colds, flu, strwp throat, numerous colds and even pneumonia!


You develop a tolerance after some time. I guess I have because I haven't been sick in 3 years!
