Help I am sick!

Im sick!

Came on all of a sudden last night and now my throat is sore, im a little achy and I am soo stuffy! Does anyone here ever drink theraflu when they are sick? Does it help? I took nyquil last night and it did nothing..it doesnt even make me sleepy, I was up earlier than usual this morning.

I cannot be sick now! We are hosting thanksgiving this year and have tons of things to do! Any ideas as to what I can take. I have theraflu here.

Theraflu is good. Also vicks rub. I love that stuff. And tea with honey. And nyquil at night (wait until the theraflu wears off).

And get alot of sleep if you can. You'll be alright!! Feel better!

Don't feel bad . I have a cold too. Firts it always starts with the sore throat. When I get a sore throat, I break out into a cold next. I know to bust out the tissues! It stinks!

That just happend to me 2 days ago. My throat ws so sore I could not swallow. I slept all day and Friday I was much better, just a little stuffy now. I didn't really take anything (had nothing in the house and didn't feel like going out)

Feel better!!!

I hope you feel better

Being an MD, the first thing for sore throats is salt and water. pour half a cup of water with about 4 tbsp of salt. gargle 3xdaily, and by the second day your throat will not be sore. Also, take tylenol every 4 hours for about 24hrs. Along with 2tbs of honey with a little lemon 3xdaily. Most usually it is a virus, that is common once the cold season kicks in. However do try to rest atleast oneday, that way you will be on your feet sooner than you think.
Feel better

Sleep!!! Best thing for you. That and some herbal tea! Curl up under the blankets for a couple of days! Feel better!!
