I managed to fight off the post-Capricon crud. Yay!
I don't know if my body was already planning to fight it off anyway or if the double-whammy of new cold remedies really helped, but the cold is gone. Gone gone gone. And this makes me a happy camper.
I'd been hearing wonders about Zicam, which is a homeopathic remedy for colds, and it turns out there's a spray-in-your-mouth version (since I'm not fond of nasal sprays, which is the normal Zicam delivery method), so I decided to give it a try. My trainer at the gym commented that his wife swears by Airborne, which is a fizzy (like Alka Seltzer) concoction of herbs and things like vitamins A, C and E and Zinc. Since the two didn't have any overlap or seem to have any conflicts, I decided to try both.
And it worked. No more cold. Yay.
