If this is possible, get a lot of sleep. I'm sure the adrenaline will get you through the day so I wouldn't worry so much. Added stress will just keep you from getting better. It will work out.

I wish I could but my family from Greece arrives tomorrow and it will be nonstop from there on!

Re: Getting married Friday and have a bad sore throat and cold

Tylenol cold sore throat works wonders for me. Honey lemon flavor is the most soothing. Mint is a bit too icy.

Re: Getting married Friday and have a bad sore throat and cold

Drink lots of OJ and hot tea with honey or lemon. Chicken Soup also works for sore throats!!! At night take Nyquil and that should take care of the cold. If nothing else it'll knock you out so you can get some sleep. Hope you feel better!!!!!!!!

Re: Getting married Friday and have a bad sore throat and cold

Zycam is a spray that you spray in your mouth (cheeks, back of tounge, throat) and it cuts a cold in half the time ...

I'd suggest going to your doctor ASAP. I also was sick the week of my wedding and they prescribed Allegra and I felt a lot better.

Re: Getting married Friday and have a bad sore throat and cold

Taking Zinc is good for colds too. You can get it in a lozenge or in vitamin form. You have 5 days before Friday, your cold should be better by then. And definitely sleep as much as possible!!

Re: Getting married Friday and have a bad sore throat and cold

I would get to the doctor asap - if you tell them your wedding is in four days, I'm sure they can give you something to at least quell the symptoms.

Re: Getting married Friday and have a bad sore throat and cold

Goldenseal and Ecchinechia Fingerprinted Version (sp?) I buy mine from GNC. When ever I feel like I'm coming down with something, I take 2 pills with a full glass of water and it amazingly knocks it out of me.

I hope you feel better.

Re: Getting married Friday and have a bad sore throat and cold

I normally take zinc and vitamim c. By friday you should be feeling better, just try and get some extra rest. Your family will understand.

Re: Getting married Friday and have a bad sore throat and cold

I had the same thing the week of my wedding. It was from stress. I took tylenol cold, cough and sinus and got lots of sleep.

Good Luck and FEEL BETTER
