I have had many friends say that Zicam works great but never actually

tried it myself. Might be worth a try.

My ortho suggested taking large doses of vitamin C the week prior to

surgery, I think about 10,000 units (whatever units are in Vit C).

Drink lots of fluids, get lots of rest. Not sure what else to suggest!

Hi Bob,

My suggestions: Get tons of rest... sleep is very healing!, drink

lots of fluids, especially hot tea and juice, get vitamin C. And see

how you feel in a day or two. It could be a really quick thing... I

have thought I had gotten a full blown cold before that disappeared

in a day or two. So, tell yourself that it's no big deal and that you

will be fine in a day or so. You have time!!! But your thinking will

definitely affect you. If you have problems sleeping, take some meds

that will facilitate a good night's rest. Sleep is priceless when you

are a little sick. I say " a little " because I only want you to tell

yourself that you are just a little sick!!! My surgery is 3/9 so I

understand, I am trying to be really careful about staying well. Good

luck! You'll be fine. Tell us how fast you feel better!!! Katja
