Sick and tired of being sick

About 16 months ago I got very sick, I was ill for about 8 weeks with allergies and bronchitis.  In an effort to feel better, I pulled most of the carpet out of the house (and have yet to replace it with anything) and went ill free for quite some time.  However, lately, about the last 15 weeks, it seems that I stay sick.  My head stays stopped up, and I almost live off of Advil Cold and Sinus as well as Claritin allergy meds.  The two combined keep me just well enough that I don't get bronchitis, but do not keep me from feeling like shit.  I know that there are several issues that contribute to my current state of health: One is my thyroid, it's inability to function properly leaves me with a weakened immune system. Two, I work 2 jobs, get one day off a week, and tend to ware myself out. Three. I do not eat the way I should and often don't have time to or forget to eat all together. Four, have yet to pull the rest of the carpet out of the house.  There are more factors, but they are minor.  I really need an EASY button to fix it.  There are times when I wake up and feel normal and that lasts about 2or 3 days, then wham..back to being the walking mess.  I really hope I find a real job soon, something has to give, or I am going to break.
