Seeing the sinus related problems mentioned in the comments (thanks folks!) kicked my brain into second gear and I started shoving my stuffed up noggin over a pot of boiling water a couple of times a day. It feels SO GOOD, like Vicodin good (only for only about 5 minutes). I find myself moaning with happiness for the few minutes that I can tolerate the steam because I don't hurt for those few minutes and a few minutes afterwards.
I feel maybe 5% better today which makes me a bit hopeful again and also makes me feel guilty that I'm not answering emails (or doing any of the other 4000 things that I should have been doing over the past weeks). Its just faster to update here than to email everybody, but I will, I promise!

Have you ever heard of a neti pot? It's supposed to help with sinus issues, and if steam helps, then maybe irrigating your nose warm water will help even more...
Yeah, I've been hearing about that a lot lately. I'll have to see about that one day. It looks DISGUSTING, but you know, whatever works!
Could always rub a little Mentholatum under your nose. *squirm*
I got no problem with that, at least I think not...that's like Vapo-Rub, right? Back when I was singing every day and performing I put Vapo-Rub under my nose or on my throat at night periodically and I would wake up in excellent voice.
