Although I'm sorry it's not instant...I lived through mine in November.

Powdered vitamin C...might be sold as "ascorbic acid powder", same stuff.

If your nose is really clogged you may not be able to taste anything, so feel free to dump a heaping spoonful in a glass of orange juice, mix well, and drink it down.

Three times a day. If you get "the runs" (meaning you've reached bowel tolerance), back off on the "heaping" just a titch.

I had improvement in 48 hours, and went from being unable to be horizontal to actually being able to get REAL sleep without kinks in my back (from the chair) or my legs (from the cats sleeping on whatever part of me would stay put long enough.)

If you have taste buds, it's *very* sour (auto-pucker-power) but well worth the aggravation of the flavor.

Eh, just remembered you're in another state. *sighs* I can't point you to the place I get mine. Drop an email to the folks at Vitamer and ask who in your area sells the stuff.

Yes, I took it WITH the antibiotic. 6 days of the antibiotic by itself didn't do sh**. Two days of antibiotic + Vitamin C powder and I was able to not only get real sleep, but go back to work. :) Ok, not that work was necessarily a good thing, but I blew 8 days of sick time with that, yech.


{{hugs}} Hope you get better soon.
