I suspect I have an out-and-out sinus infection now - cough, drippy, itchy nose, sinus pressure & headache, postnasal drip. I took Allegra today, and I don't know that it helped my allergies much at all. I do think the Mucinex is at least loosening the mucus, but this is miserable and I can't wait to feel better. The general rule though is to wait 7-10 days before seeing a doctor because most sinus infections are viral in nature. My appetite just isn't there probably from swallowing so much postnasal drip.
It just sucks when the weather is nice here, the allergies kick in.
