Atleast you weren't really sick on the trip hehe. Sorry your sick, it really sucks :(
I can't recommend any medicine, I just let it run its course, but I hope you feel better soon. Take yourself out to eat or buy yourself something, it helps lots when you're feeling crumby.
AWWW Kay, I'm sorry you are not feeling well :(
Can't recommend any medicine as I don't know what is available there, but Ally and Connor are sending you some GET WELL SOON headbumpies!
(((HUGS)))
Sorry you caught the creeping crud. :( Hopefully it was toward the end of your vacation. It sucks being sick on vacation. My sister gave me her chicken pox when we were in Florida. :eek: :mad: :(
As far as medicine goes, it depends on the symptoms. Overall Tylonel Cold helps. If it's a dry cough, Mucinex is expensive but really helps break up the congestion in lungs.
If it's sinus pressure, any decongestant, like Sudafed really helps me. :)
Feel better soon.
I have to completely agree on recommending Airborne! At the slightest hint of a cold I have taken it and all of the symptoms go away immediately.
And here I am, home from work, sipping on disgusting Thera-Flu. It's worked in the past so hopefully it will work again.
My mom made me stay home from work.... feel kind of lousy missing my first day back to work.
Thanks for your recommendations. I asked my dad about Airborne and he said he's never heard of it, so he bought Thera-Flu.
Sorry to hear you are feeling bad, Kay. I hope you are all better real soon.
{{{HUGS}}}
I have a cold too and i feel lousy! Try having hot juice, it clears the airways for me!:) ;)
Oh it just figures you'd get sick, just glad you didn't get sick while you were there;)
I usually take the yucky Nyquil for my colds :rolleyes:
Sorry your sick but being back in warm Florida ought to help out. I am sick too from Thanksgiving visits and the dry air here is not helping so I got a humidifier.
I pretty much OD on vitamin c and that really helps a lot - vitamin c crystals dissolved in water. If I do this regularly I don't get sick. I should have known better with people gathering for holidays and the cold weather but I was too lazy. (Lots of Florida orange juice will help too :) )
Airborne, Zicam, Cold-eeze, and excess vitamin c are all pretty much based on the same idea and they do work and are great to prevent colds. They still help if you already have a cold but if all you want is something to help you sleep - Nyquil!
Sipping (read: gagging) on a cup of Thera-Flu before bed. Bought some Tylenol Sinus for work if I need it. Have some chewable Vit. C pills, too.
Hope those of you who are sick get to feeling better!
Kay is sick? Kay can't be sick! :eek: ;)
Get well soon. :)
I was ready for work and my mom told me to stay home. Coughing up some really nice colored stuff this morning. Back to bed for me.. I feel like such a bum. I really wanted to go back to work, that's the worst part. :( :(
I hope you feel better soon. I can't recomend any medacines but remember that old saying "starve a cold, drown a fever" or something like that. I might've switched them around. Anywho, hope you feel better soon.
