    Unhappy Please help.. Awful cold and feel terribly n* :(

    This cold is even worse than the one I had in June as I can't even talk. My voice has completely gone. I haven't got much of a blocked nose and sore throat anymore thankfully, but oh my God, I feel soooooooo n* and hot... :'( I've had some toast this morning and couldn't taste it. I can't even taste mint... Is there anything that I could take for the n*? I've already taken four pain killers today as my glands are really swollen and I feel achy all over. I haven't got any Motilium left as well... This is the worst n* I have ever had and I know that me being worried sick about it isn't helping either. I'm also on my period which makes it 10x worse. I don't know what to do.. I wish I could actually sleep but I can't. Anyone have any suggestions? Also, I keep needing to cough which makes the n* worse. How can I stop the coughing? Would appreciate some suggestions. Thank you. <3

    Awww that sucks i had a nasty cold back in may and was so ill with it, and it lasted nearly 3 weeks! For the cold i'd recommend dosing up on lemsip and throat sweets and for n* theres a really good anti emetic called buccastem u can get over the counter in boots or motillium or ginger works quite well..Hope u feel better soon! xx

    Do you have Vick's Vapo Steam over there? If you do, it works wonders. Do you have a vaporizer? That should help you breathe easier. In the US, we just take antihistamines, but I don't know what's available where you live. I take Zyrtec for my allergies and it helps loads. Your n is probably from posal nasal drip and if you can dry that up a bit, you'll probably feel a whole lot better. In the meantime, sending virutal hugs and chicken soup.

    Thank you so much Grace and butterfly. I had some chicken soup and ginger last night and I felt better for a while, then I started to feel really bad again. I think I have the flu but I'm not sure. I get reaaaally hot but am shaking like a leaf at the same time.
