Head cold?

Something's been going around our family. It's been pretty mild even for me. My sinuses have drained more and, as usual, the decongestants don't seem to have any effect. I've been a bit more tired, but nothing too remarkable.

This is the first time, though, that I've had problems with Nasonex. A few days after the increased sinus drainage, using the Nasonex caused my throat to burn. It was a persistent, moderate burning sensation. Normally I use the Nasonex twice a day. After the burning, I started using it only once a day thinking that might help relieve the problem. I don't remember if it did (having a poor memory stinks). A few days later, I started to have nose bleeds. At first I noticed it when I blew my nose. Over time it became more and more. There's a history of nose bleeds in my family, so it's not all that surprising, but this is the first time it's happened with me.
