I just can't imagine there being much demand for them except for the intended purpose.
People are weird. I'd have thought that too about the med I take for my thyroid, but it turns out some folks take it to lose weight.
I'm not evil again. Why does everyone think that?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A lot of my meds do have happy!fun purposes, so I basically feel guilty requesting them or filling the prescriptions.
Wow. I've almost downed the whole quart of Smart Water and it's just turned three.
I had a slight ebay spasm and bought four sets of cufflinks. That doesn't make me a bad person, right?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
So what OTC is good for sinus headaches? I was taking Pretends to be Effective and Advil and hoping they would make magic.

Migraine meds?

I'm a big fan of the Claritin-D 24 hr.* + Advil cocktail.

bon bon, that combo would work for me, but I seem to be one of the few who find PtbE effective.

I just get the back-alley Sudafed 12-hour and take it with 3 or 4 ibuprofen. Works like a charm for 95% of my sinus headaches. (The other 5% turn into a migraine.)

It's got the pseudoephedrine; hence, the ID/back alley dealie. But, man -- the pseudoephedrine is GOOD SHIT. For congestion.

Last year, I had a series of god-awful sinus headaches. I tried everything but it didn't even take the edge off. I was working at the time and 12-14 hours a day with non-stop, blinding pain was killing me. Finally, I broke down and begged our writers assistant to find me something. I was like, "Whatever they have BEHIND THE COUNTER."
I may have even grabbed his shirt when I said that. It's still fuzzy. I was a desperate woman.

Yesterday is over and my head hurts again. Ah, well. At least I had a day. And I should be able to nap the edge off this one before teaching tonight.
Work is so freaking busy. It's weird to be in that bit where I do actually know what I'd doing (it's IT, but not in an industry I'd ever worked in before and the org chart is insane). I can actually answer questions. Off the top of my head. That no one else knows the answer to.
It's been a while.
So, about casual sex. Which is a change of topic, be assured. Medically speaking, when was the safest time to be unsafe? Assuming that pregnancy out of the question, when was the last significant low-risk disease-wise window for random shagging?
