I had the same ick, in fact this year I've had an URI chest-centric viral infection 3 times.. I'm sick of it- literally. The joys of working in an office swarming with children. This last go round that I'm just over now started, and basically ended in my chest/throat. Cold-eze lozenges if started early I swear have saved my ass a few times- may be placebo, I don't care, power of belief or real- I think they help. I did take 400mg ibuprofen ever 6hrs for my throat, and it relieved that.. my inhaler was put to use when needed, and I also would take 2-3 Primatine tabs a day.. ephedrine and guifenisen which helped tremendously with chest congestion, and also with the dragged out blahs (watch out with ephedrine and coffee or any other stimulants (Sudafed or ADHD meds) you may be taking.. it is a speedy combo which can make you feel worse if you are really drained.) The Primatine tabs really kept my ears and nose open as well. Other than that.. sleep.
