Lawdwaz Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Man do I have a hummer of a head cold. Started yesterday afternoon with a horrid sore throat then all kinds of head pressure. This morning I had plans to get up early and head down to Ontario County for some tree stand work, stay over night and come back Sunday after some long range banging. When the alarm went off at 6am I rolled over and snuffed it out...........got up around 7:30 and told my wife I wasn't going. At 9am I was on the road. We had a very productive day as far as the tree stand/hut work but didn't feel like shooting or staying over night. Man is my head plugged now, the throat feels ok but I dread tonight..................I grabbed some Nyquil so we'll see how it goes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

growalot Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) PS...sleep with your head shoulders elevated...it helps prevent a build up and opens airways. Edited September 20, 2015 by growalot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFA-ADK Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Allergies suck! Hope you feel better Lawdwaz, better now than during hunting season. Chicken noodle soup! Always helps me out along with Nyquil Sudafed and nasal sprays. Hope you recover quick as the season is right around the corner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy K Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Mine moved into my chest a couple days ago . Ive been taking a break from sniffling and blowing my nose to hack my brains out. At least we get it out of the way before hunting season starts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
