A perfect storm of low temperatures (low humidity), a cold, and taking Mucinex resulted in DW having a nosebleed that wouldn't stop.
I'll spare you the details, but it was an on-again off-again thing that just wouldn't respond to any of the standard Internet remedies. Finally after two days, she called the doctor who was not in. She was told that if she couldn't stop the bleeding, she should go to the emergency room. She didn't want to go to the ER for a nosebleed, so she toughed it out, and today she's out of the woods.
I wonder how much of the blame lies with Mucinex. Note that she never takes aspirin, and never has nosebleeds.
