I just take a Sudafed before I have a performance. When my nose is stuffy I
worry about 'things ' leaking, you know. A bit gross but I hate the thought of
dripping while I play. :-)

I think it's harder to play because you can't hear yourself as well, for some
reason. I also think, although you breath through your mouth, some of the air
must come through your nose.

Anyway that's why I take the antihistamine. I don't want to worry about this.
But I know some people don't like to take medication.
