Didn't take my own advice

a bit late in the game, but I hope you're feeling better?

Regarding periodontal health, have you looked into CoQ10? apparently it's good for gums. I apparently have the beginning stages of it (bleeding gums when they pick and scrape your teeth - I wonder whose don't bleed?!?).

Anyways, you may want to check it out?

Well, I did have it all checked out, had my gums/teeth cleaned and scraped, plus a dose of an antibiotic put in the one spot it really hurt. I had a little bleeding when she cleaned my teeth, which I hadn't had in years. I was using ACT mouthwash, until they changed the formula and put alcohol in it and then switched to Crest. Now my dentist wants me to use some new natural mouth wash, which I will try when I run out of the Crest.
I am still feeling kinda bad, though, sinuses, glands. I guess I will have to give in and go to the doctor. I am just so sick of all of this. I am being good, though and not doing anything except stretch and a little yoga.

Drink plenty of fluids (wine doesn't count ). There's always the chicken soup cure - I swear by my local Chinese resturant's Hot & Spicey Soup. Maybe it's just that I don't have to cook it, but the spicey hot part does unstuff my nose and clear my head.

Hope you feel better soon!

+1 to the wine. I had some Friday night and it didn't help the problem!
My husband now has a terrible cold and is in bed sneezing at the rate of 1 time every minute or so.
