So I am a week and a half out from a meet I have been preparing for since September. This Friday I am going to start a small one week taper leading into the meet next Sat Dec 8. However I am starting to get sick, I feel it in my throat, my nose is starting to run, etc. Do any of those things like Emergen-C work or am I better off with a multi vitamin and some nyquil?

I remember being told that if it's above the neck, you can still exercise but if it's below the neck, you shouldn't. I found that my recollection was confirmed by the Mayo Clinic: www.mayoclinic.com/.../AN01097
If the meet is important to you, play it safe. You're not going to lose fitness if you take a few days off.
