Gosh Tweety. Not sounding good. Shaking my head..I haven’t a clue as to what advise I could give. Sorry.

What to do before you fly with cold symptoms
Take decongestants. Medicines like Sudafed work to reduce swelling around your Eustachian tubes, giving the ear more of a shot at equalizing, says Linder. ...
Try nasal sprays. Really stuffed up? ...
Pack lozenges. Keep hard candy to suck on or gum to chew in your carry-on as well.
Good advice.
I’ve heard the pressure in the cabin is brutal on a head cold.
Flight crews always used to depend and swear by Sudafed. Gum also good to keep the passages open.
