I'd like to tell the thread about my experience using Zicam. On Sept.21, I felt a cold coming on during the day at work, so I immediately thought of trying Zicam. I didn't want to get sick because I had a fishing trip planned for the 23rd through 26th. I stopped at three Walgreens on the way to an Astro's baseball game that evening, and could not find it. I finally stopped at an Eckerds in Rice Village, and bought two of the last three boxes on the shelf. My investigation into the workings of the "pump" applicator resulted in a shot to the headliner of my Range Rover. That thing can shoot! Nevertheless, I followed the directions on the labels. I felt the sensation described by some as a burning sensation; I would describe it more like a tingling sensation. To me, that sensation made me feel like something was working. About three hours later after the game and after the second dose, I was ready to sell every share I own. I felt achy all over, and knew I was coming down with a full blown cold. The stuff was not working (yet). I awoke in the morning feeling the symptoms of a cold, but not as severe as the night before. I continued to use Zicam about every three hours throughout the day. The next day, the 23rd, I was fishing on Laguna Madre without even a sniffle! This stuff works and I'm very encouraged about the future value of the stock. I'd like to buy more, but I'm already loaded up. But if the price stays at these levels for a few more days, I'm going to come up with money for more somehow. Good luck to all longs! K.Joseph
