i got super sick two days before my wedding. if you've never taken airborne before, stay away! i used it for the week leading up to my wedding, and i got sick!! nothing worked for me until i used Aleve-D, which is now my new medicine of choice. i love it!!

Probably from being rundown with all the last minute running around and just being stressed! Especially, with all of the bugs that keep going around!

Go to the doctor, just in case..... I've taken the Z pack (5 day medicine) which works great (someone may have mentioned it above). My cousin just took a similar one, but 3 days and it worked great for her (need a prescription though)

Feel better!

Gargle with warm salt water, lots of tea with honey.

Theraflu drink is also good- it goes into hot water and it tastes lemony. Hope you feel better soon!

Re: pls help! My wedding is in 3 days and i have a super sore throat!

Go to the doctor and get an antibiotic. Take a double dose today. You'll feel better by tomorrow or Friday.

You don't want to be sick for your hm or especially for your wedding! Seriously, go to the doctor!!!!!

Also, try to get some rest!!!! lots of liquids, tea, gargle with salt water, no dairy products. And it sounds gross, but blow your nose alot. If you have post nasal drip it will make you cough and your throat will get worse.

Feel better...good luck!!!
