I completely agree with Nadezda. Once on it awhile, you get used to it and know what to stay away from. I have a list somewhere from my old pdoc that rates things in terms of 1,2, or 3 being absolute no nos. I will try to find it as it told me I could eat a little of some things I thought were not okay, and I have been fine.
I cannot believe a doctor would say that decongestents are okay. On the box, they even say it is a no no for people on MAOI's. I once years ago perposefully od'd on Contac time release cold capsules, and I had such a horrible hypertensive crisis that I ended up in the cardiac intensive care unit of the hospital. It was an experience I will never forget and would never try to duplicate again either. The pain was worse than anything I have ever known.
