its 11 days till the wedding and im pretty sure i have the flu or atleast a nasty nasty cold FH was sick all last week and i tried my best to stay away from him so i wouldnt catch it. i even made him sleep in the guest room, but i caught it anyway. now he's feeling better and i feel awful. the worst part is that i just moved to a new state so i dont have a doctor here i could go to for a prescription, nor do i have insurance since im not working right now. i've been drinking tea non-stop with honey and lemon, taking dayquil and nightquil and drinking thera-flu tea in the morning and before bed. what else can i do to get over this cold fast!! i need all the home remedies i could get.
thanks so much girls

Take Echinecea for your immune sysytem and Vitamin C tablets...get Airborne ASAP and seriously eat veggie or chicken soup it has so many vitamins...use Vicks at night and take nice hot showers to clear you up..You will be fine before the big day1

Can you go to one of those walk in clinics to get a prescription if you think you need one? Don't worry - you still have enough time to be feeling better before your wedding. A week from now (or even less) you'll be feeling much better - just try to rest as much as possible.

Are there any free clinic type places in your area??
If not, do what the other girls have said. REST. Drink tea and water. Keep taking the OTC stuff.
The good news is that most colds only last 7-10 days at worst, so I think by the time of the wedding you'll be feeling much better!

have you tried Thera Flu? that helps many people. and I SWEAR by ZICAM - it will cut the life of a cold in half - but you have to take it religiously like they say on the instructions. keep taking airborne or start if you haven't already because there are huge shots of Vitamin C in each dose which will really help you and start drinking orange juice asap. keep hydrated!

Definitely take Emergen C
Rest, stay hydrated
I had this nasty cold a few weeks ago for a week and a half and it was miserable. Just take it easy
