I am four days post op (had my surgery Wed morning and it's now Sun afternoon)

I have developed a cold - how delightful. NOT! Anyway, just wanted to know if anyone had any advice on how to make myself feel better, at a time where I already feel crumby. I checked with the Dr.'s office about echanacia (my usual attach for colds) and they nixed that - thins the blood, and as I'm already on Fragmin, they don't want that happening. They recommended any of the Tylenol products - I have NyQuil, which I'll use tonight before I go to bed, but I just CAN'T wait for the coughing to start - it's already so painful on my incision just with little coughs... Anyway, and input would be appreciated. Thanks!
