Colds make most people feel worse.  Add that to your cut and no wonder you're feeling like ass.  If you're taking a cold medication, it could affect your blood pressure and/or pulse.  The cut may also affect your pulse, but you probably would have noticed that before.  The cold itself may raise your pulse. 

 

I don't have blood pressure issues, and colds were only an additional nuisance during my withdrawal.  One silver lining was that I would take NyQuil when I had colds, and it gave me better sleep than just about anything else.

Thanks. I take BP meds so I can't take regular cold meds. Which makes it worse. I'll just ride it out. I'm on such a low dose of Clonzenpam that it's not too bad. And yes, the nite time meds help a lot. Getting good sleep. Back to bed.

I don't take cold meds because I find only the ones with pseudo ephedrine makes me uber anxious - like WD style anxious.

 

I also find colds make WD feel much worse. The hot lemon and honey is always good, but I do miss the shot of whisky I used to add to them (ahhhh in better days)
