Self doctoring is about as foolish as it gets. Many Winter Texans put themselves at risk by taking the readily available antibiotics from across the border. Often times, they take antibiotics for allergies and virus's, both of which are not helped by antibiotics. "If" I was going to try a home cure, I would try something like Claritin to see if it responds to anti-allergy drugs. I would take antibiotics only if ordered by a real doctor. Not an Internet buddy.

DW got it when we spent a week in Harlingen. She went to the clinic an was given 10 full days of antibiotic, not 3 or 5 days worth.
IMO, the TX crud is from the burning of the sugar cane fields. I always feel better when I'm on SPI and away from that black ash. My northern upper respiratory just isn't use to that stuff is my opinion. Now add in ageing, and even maybe a comprised immune system and you're really stepping into it.
