Jim, Misia's list has four things on it I wanted to ask about. Are decongestants, antihistamines, cough suppressant, and/or cough expectorant there for the purpose of comfort or safety? I have all sorts of idiosyncratic reactions to medications and I have generally found these things to make me feel much worse during colds, so naturally I'm a bit dubious about their utility for me personally during a flu. Is this a problem I should seek a solution to for safety reasons? Does not having, e.g., a decongestant that works for me mean I'm at much some greater risk for fatality, or just mean I would feel extra special miserable?
