    Poor DoubleLife... I just got over - barely - a very nassty flu... Upper respiratory AND intestinal... NO fun. Was so weak I could barely walk from one room to another...

    My advice? Make garlic tea. Slice up 1/2 clove of garlic into a cup of water, 'nuke' it in your microwave for about a minute, and slowly sip that. Garlic seems to help me, even when I've caught a virus...

    But warn your co-workers that you will smell like garlic for a few days!

    Also, eucalyptus oil. Rubbed on your nose. Helps clear up the sinuses.

    Hope you heal quickly!

    I feel for you! It's definitely going around. Hopefully it is the one that only lasts for 3 or 4 days. I had that several weeks ago. Very miserable, but not too long.

    Brew 2 bags of green tea in a cup of boiling water. Add a tablespoon of honey and one table spoon of Whiskey.....you'll sleep like a baby and probably feel much better the next day.

    you must be getting close to home time!!

    Wrap yourself up in a warm blankie, pop your favorite movie into the DVD and snuggle yourself....

    By the way, since reading your thread I've been sneezing and coughing....the internet is one powerful thing huh??

    Thanks for everyone's suggestions. I'll try to put them to use. I'll be off work in a little while. Then have to stop by the store to pick up soup and tea. I should get a little extra so that next time I'm sick I don't have to make a trip to the store again.

    poopsiecakes, don't get sick!

    If you are not pregnant......(wink)

    Consider two tablespoons of honey 3x day and digesting 3 cloves of garlic per day (I cut them up to pill size and swallow)

    Honey is a natural anti-inflammatory, garlic is a natural antibiotic
