Cough keeping me awake?!
Question: Cough keeping me awake?
Last night I literally got only about 1 or 2 hours of sleep, because I was up all night coughing. I am congested too, and have been sick since Monday, but I just developed the cough yesterday. I've taken decongesting medicine, cough syrup, and had a cough drop earlier. I am going to bed soon and I'm very tired, but I don't want to be up all night again, I have plans tomorrow. Any suggestions to help me sleep without coughing myself through the night?
Answers:
Antihistamine at night (sleepy/dries out your nose), decongestant during the morning (makes you have to blow your nose -- don't do this at night. Also may keep you awake.)
tylenol and nyquil
vick formula 44...its the best
