The Cold Got Me!

I have been trying to fight it since my last post...  As of last week it hit me full force.  I had to breakdown and see my doctor.  He never said what it was that I had, but once we left the pharmacy we were broke.  He ordered antibiotics, a nasal spray, and an inhaler.  I went through 3 boxes of tissues, within the last 2 weeks. 

Having this stupid cold, has sent my Chiari symptoms in a tissy.  With the sinus pressure, coughing, and sneezing... I was waiting for my head to fall off at any moment.  Normally when your sick, you want to sleep.  The entire time I was sick, I maybe had 2-3 hours of sleep per day.  Last night I had 1 1/2 hours.  Have any of you had any of these problems,  or others, when sick?

Have a wonderful and pain free day!
