better use for Zicam: shove it up your nose

my cold has blossomed into a full-bloom sinus infection, but i just discovered zicam's intense sinus relief spray - menthol scent.

i may have accidentally shot it onto my cerebellum, but really, this stuff seems to be a godsend.

i felt instant relief. but you can only use it once every 12 hours, so i'll let you know if it gets me through the night.

Here's hoping it works, you poor thing. Sinuses are horrible.

Your man needs to buy you some chicken noodle soup. I love eating soup when I feel sick.

once every 12 hours actually means once every 4 hours plus a zyrtec and 2 tylenol pm's.

I have seen SJ's medicine cabinet and I am slightly concerned she is adding to it and PLEASE do not listen to Bryan!

Feel better soon.

Shush Bryan, you are as bad as Husband. Not paying attention to the recommended dosage is just another form of men's strange aversion to reading the directions.

Chicken soup, however, has no recommended dosage limitation.

WTF??? I am very qualified to provide advice on OTC (that's over the counter for all you non medical people) medicines from my extensive watching of House.

I hope the chicken soup gives you the runs!!!
