Any ideas...I've been sick for 4-5 weeks. Not laid out in your bed sick. Just cough and sinus...lots of thick yucky mucus that I am coughing up and blowing out. I don't think it's an infection. I am pg which I think is making it harder for my body to combat. I'm also just really tired, but I don't know if that's pg or cold, or combo.

I was recc to use white tea to boost immunity - but I still have to get some. Any other thoughts on what I can do to eradicate this?

A saline spray or neti pot with saline solution will really help clear out those sinuses. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Sounds like a sinus infection. Any cold that lingers that long is a sinus infection. I battled and battled sinus infections here's what I learned: Drink lots of fluids, use steam or a netti pot to clear out your sinus passages, take extra vitamin c and try to stay away from dairy products, get rest. If things don't clear up you might need an antibiotic to get rid of it. I suffered forever because I didn't want to go into the Dr my sinus infections turned into painful headaches and earaches...when it got to that point I was really miserable. Words of Wisdom...take care of it early. Hope you start feeling better soon!!
