Hi everyone!

Hi nemesis. How are you hun?

😀 😀 😛

 

[goddess_nemesis]

Hi Kurch! I'm doing good. My cold is in its last stages so I'm starting to get better. (Almost always starts with a sore throat then a sinus infection then ends with a stuffed up/runny nose.)

How are you?

Good to hear you are getting better hun.
(Same cycle happens with me lol)

I am feeling much better thanks to Kurch's Magic Cold Concotion. Lemon Zinger tea, Honey, and Ginger.

 

[goddess_nemesis]

Lol.

Glad to hear you're feeling better.

 

[kurchatovium]

Lol.

Glad to hear you're feeling better.

Thanks.

Ginger works wonders at least for the stomach. 🙂

 

[goddess_nemesis]

Yeah, I've heard that.

 

[kurchatovium]

Yeah, I've heard that.

Its true. You just need to get a fair amount in you. Certainly not a cure all but it does help a lot. 🙂

I like natural remedies that help, rather than take medication (unless I absolutely have to). 😀

Yes same here. Often things you take for chronic conditions eventually either hurt your liver or kidneys. 😱 And that is not a good thing.

Yeah. Even with this cold, I didn't take anything other than Excedrin for the ache caused by the sinus infection. My boyfriend thought I was crazy for not taking anything. Lol. Sucking on cough drops was enough for me to sooth my sore throat.

Honey and tea are good for sore throat and cough. 🙂

For my cold I just took mainly tylenol to make sure it did not become a fever. 😀

Never did like tea. I just made sure I drank plenty of fluids (mainly water) and sucked on cough drops. 🙂

I always hated tea too. I only drink it when I am sick. The honey though is very good for a sore throat and eases coughing. 😀 😛

I'll keep that in mind, at least the honey the next time I get sick. 😀

Hi Nemmy,
I didn't know about honey easing a sore throat. I was reading about your colds, and found that to be interesting.

I guess I'm just the opposite from you and Kurchie when it comes to colds. I like to take Dayquil and Nyquil. If I'm coughing in school, I can't participate in labs so that others don't get sick.

Hi Kurchiecakes,
Hope you are feeling better. Chronic conditions like your arthritis really are awful.
My day was spent napping after school. I think I have been not getting enough sleep, and that accumulates so I just crashed. 😀 😀
Of course I found time to eat my dinner.

Dayquil and Nyquil don't cut it for me. I still feel drowsy when I take Dayquil and Nyquil doesn't help me sleep. Or with any of those Daytime/Nighttime meds, they just don't seem to actually help ease the symptoms, at least for me.

I'm glad there are alternatives that work for you, and I bet they are less money! The Dayquil capsules that I bought for my last cold cost 5.99 for 6 doses. I took it every 12 hours so that was only a three day supply! 😱
😀 😀

Hi Helena. How are you? I am much better today thank you.

I use Robitussin DM. 🙂

Yikes. That's still relatively cheap then here. Most meds like Dayquil are over $6. 😱

If you've got a sore throat, drinking more water helps because it'll keep your throat moist. The drier your throat gets, the sorer it gets.

 

[kurchatovium]

kurchie go beddy bye now.

Good Night Everyone. Take care my good friends. Peace and wuv. 😀 😀
