I will also note that my mucus/snot/whatever you wanna call it was kind of a bright yellow color. Normally it's fairly clear, even with allergies. (I do get wrecked by seasonal allergies, especially in late summer.) Any time my mucus is yellow like that, I know it's an infection. The post-nasal drip was NON-STOP. I was spitting it out at first but eventually it got to be too much work so I just started snorting and swallowing it. Sounds gross, I know, but you wouldn't believe the amount of mucus production that was going on. It was obscene.
