denMy little cold is now an Upper Respiratory Tract Infection. I'm on double strength Amoxycillian for the bug, gargleing Listerine for the throat, and sucking down Ventolin and Pulmicort for the lungs.
On the bright side, my Rabies immunology came through. I have over 6 times the required immune thingies I need to keep handling bats. Which is nice.

Augmentin (the next biggest after Amoxy) has side effects nasty enough to put it on everyone's "allergies" list - it's NASTY. Say no. Ask for Zithromycin (if they want you to do another course after this one) if you don't have ampicillin allergies like I do.
Don't ask how I know this. I'm older, okay?
Get rest. It's the only thing that really works.
