I have had a cold for the past 6 days and for the last two I've found a combination of drugs that have made it tolerable enough to let me swim. I take Nyquil (generic kind) an hour before bedtime and Musinex D just before I leave for work. At approximately 5pm, I take a 1/2 dose of the Musinex D. I feel good enough to practice for a little while (45 min).
If you have things that work for you please pass them along. Thanks, Coach T.

I suppose the handwashing part is conceivable, especially if you have OCD goading you, but the avoiding mucous membranes part is not, this according to studies of surgeons in the operating room who, despite every possible motive to remain pure, nevertheless have virtually no success long term keeping their hands away from eyes, nose, and mouth...
