Yuck

If anyone has any suggestions for halting what I like to term euphemistically as "slug races" (icky, yucky 'drainage')... please, for the love of all that's pure and right in the world, TELL ME.

Julie stuffs Kleenex up her nose and leaves it there. ;)

The objective, though, is to breathe unhindered through the nose! ;)

Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudafed ... Does not always stop the drainage, but by the second dose, who cares? ;)

Lots and lots of hot herbal tea... Bigelow's Lemon Lift or Mint Medley, Celestial Seasonings' Spearmint, and any type of green tea. Add honey or sugar as needed, but drink lots and lots of it.

I used to do a handstand against a wall, let my nose plug right up, then when I came down from the handstand, my nose would be all clear for a minute or two. =)

But that's not very helpful =P

I can't really do handstands -- I'm afraid my wrists would snap.

My nose isn't really getting stuffy anyway. Antihistamines seem to be helping a bit with stuff.... at least I'm not coughing anymore.
