Well, for my money the natural route should still include frequent shower steamings, vaporub so you can at least breathe, sleep and vitamin C...which at least you're already willing to do!
When I didn't take anything at the beginning of whatever that infection was, every day saw me get more and more rundown until I was practically a walking corpse. Taking Mucinex kept the sinus swelling down and my lungs clear so I can breathe...which I think is a natural function I don't mind preserving artificially.
Also, I think it's silly to hate OTC drugs but refuse to see a doctor to get a prescription :P
