Kenneth,
The instant I feel anything coming on, I start loading up on Vitamin C.
(2-3 Grams at once, and the 1 gram every hour or so), and Vitamin D, 10,000 IUs
daily). Drink fluids (chicken bullion in hot water), the warmth helps break that
congestion up.

I have also found that Zyrtec helps me (I have some allergies I have long ignored).
But it really helps to open the sinuses (by reducing the inflamation of the sinuses).

Also a Long Steaming hot shower has helped clear the sinuses as well... I will
do all of it if really bad. Don't get there often, maybe every few years.

And get that sleep. I load up on the vitamins before I go to sleep.
Final thing to consider, if you can put the Head of your bad up about 4 Inches
higher than the foot of the bed. It helps your sinuses drain while you sleep.

I feel for you... It took me a while to find the things that worked.
Take it or leave it... But feel better.

Kirk Out!
