I am at the end of my cold when my sinus is draining and causing that cough. Now last year when I had this cold, I used mucinex and a cough syrup and it worked wonderful. This year it is not making a bit of difference. I know that I need to try and dry my sinus, but don't know what to use, because nothing seems to work. Is it because cold medicines are changing because to the restrictions due to the meth labs. I am without sleep and desperate. HELP... By the way the doc says I just need to let it runs its course, and take some cough syrup, and my instincts are telling me nothing is wrong, it is just making me miserable. Lungs are clear, per xrays, and I don't smoke.

If I eat more fruit, eat half a bagel for lunch and breakfast, and go on the stair-stepper for an hour every night?

How many calories are in half a bagel anyway?

When I wake, even after 6-8 hrs sleep, I have no balance. I stumble like a drunk. It's almost like my legs refuse to work properly, along with being dizzy. Yesterday, I nearly face-planted into the concrete in my basement bedroom (ouch!) and shortly after recovering, I fell forward into the bookshelf. Today, I fell again, on my way through the kitchen, and would up being stabbed by a stray pencil. I'm just thrilled it wasn't a knife or something lying out. This is really scary, and the last two days aren't the only times, just good examples. I get dizzy other times during the day, but not like this. I also have gotten dizzy while sitting down, for no obvious reason. I have fainted before, as well, but it's been quite a while since that happened. I've been tested for anemia and thyroid problems, but both tests were normal. Any help would be much loved. I also tend to feel "sick" all the time, which is an overall blah feeling more than a definable sickness. Again, any help would be great

Every morning I wake up I’m miserable. I’m usually an optimist and cheery but in the morning it’s a totally different story for about 30 min. I wake up and am pissed off at the world. What can I do to off set this, any home remedies?

Every indication I get is that you CAN'T claim Homeowner association fees on your taxes. Is this absolutely the case? I paid $600 in association fees last year... can't this somehow be claimed ANYWHERE on the return?
Is there ever a situation where this can be claimed?

Thanks.

I have a 4 yr old who is a Coeliac. I find it very hard if I am in town to find places that provide sandwiches or even evening meals. I find that most restaurants don't know what I am talking about.

Boots used to do a gluten free sandwich as part of their meal deal but I have not seen anything in there for almost a year now. I find if I pop into town I have to take a packed lunch. The only other place I can use is macdonald's(without the buns of course). Not overly keen on using it a lot as it is not good to eat!! The only restaurant that would cater is a big expensive french restairant. About £15 just for one course!!

I am getting increasingly fed up with people thinking its just a fad diet because the celebs are doing it to stop bloating!! I have had comments like, well just a little bit won't hurt. They don't realise what gluten can do to a Coeliac!!

Does anyone else out there have similar problems!!
