I've been sick for the past month and don't know what to do...?

For the past month I've had this cold and don't know what to do. I actually don't think it's a cold just because I've had it for so long. I always have a headache, My nose is always congested, and I always have a runny nose. But occasionally throughout the month of my sickness, I get bouts of coughing, chest congestion, and a very sore body. I'm going to the doctor asap, I'd just like to know what I'm (possibly) up against. Thank you.

    My guess would be sinus infection. If antibiotics work for you, go for it. If not, or if you don't have insurance, I recommend consulting an herbal. That is how I got rid of a nagging sinus infection when 2 rounds of antibiotics had failed. And herbs work FASTER and also STRENGTHEN your system. If you look at an herbal, don't go for a super-technical one. Get one that is written for the lay person, which should recommend herbs that are totally safe. My formula went something like this:

    yellow dock

    dandelion root

    cayenne pepper

    fennel seed

    mullein - lungs

    With roots, it's good to simmer, but you don't have to. I always just steeped mine for about 15 minutes. Take a tea 3 times a day made with ORGANIC herbs. bulk herbs seem to work best for me in a tea ball - I don't notice much from tea bags, but then I haven't made a serious effort at them either. Good luck! And if you do an herbal course, you will probably come out feeling better than you have in a long, long time. Worth the trouble.
