I have no idea what is going on with me.On saturday i started sneezing like crazy,then the watery eye thing started with the runny nose.I felt dizzy and everything was hurting.I took some good allergy pills,didn't help,made me drowsy,took some cold/flu medicine that didn't help.My nose is still stuffed up,and around my eyes and my nose it feels like somebody just punched me.Just the pressure on my face hurts.What could this be?All of this is giving me a bad headache and i do take imitrex for my migraine attacks,but this is not a migraine attack.Please help

Sounds like a sinus infection to me or at least a sinus headache. I had one earlier this year -- my forehead hurt, sides of my nose, cheek bones. Are you able to blow anything out your nose? I was really plugged up, but once stuff started coming out it was yellow and really gross smelling

Yeah, it's sinus pain...I've been feeling it for a few days, too...ugh. :( But anyway...drink some hot tea, make sure to inhale the steam...:) Take hot showers...and some Sudafed. :) That'll help. Maybe go for some Tyenol Allergy/Sinus. If I can't get to the doc, I think I'm gonna pick me up some.

I usually take tylenol or advil cold and sinus -- pain reliever with sudafed in it. When I get sinus headaches
When I had my sinus infection -- gross yellow stuff and pain the doctor told me to take sudafed, tylenol, an expectorant, use afrin (but ONLY for three days) and I was given an antibiotic.
