I still took my regular Tylenol cold medication too and had lots of tea, water and soup with broth. I was struggling to get my food in too but it helped to puree veggies into the soup and for my dinner protein, I just substituted with 2 non-restricted packets on two of the days (1 was the jello). So 5 packets total, only 1 restricted still but no regular protein. I also ate smaller amounts every 2 hours instead of my normal every 4 hours.
Take baths if you need to get warmed up and otherwise don't push it too fast. You could take a number of days to get over it and if you try to do too much too fast, it will just come back again. This is day 9 for me and after a day at work, I was exhausted and dizzy a couple times at the office.
