TheAnvil 0 #1 November 2, 2004 I'm a sick JACKASS and feel miserable. Dayquil isn't cutting it. Going to get some TheraFlu soon. I've been drinking water by the liter all day. If I don't feel better in a couple of days I'll have to go to the vet. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

jjiimmyyt 0 #2 November 2, 2004 Couple of teaspoons of honey, pinch of cinnamon and mace, lots of lemon and topped up with hot water. Add a little whiskey. Oh, and a BJ. Always makes me feel better "This isn't an iron lung, people. You can actually disconnect and not die." -Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm home sick today and just can't breath!! Don't use Zicam! There are a lot of stories on how it can destroy your sense of smell.

I used it last year and it BURNED the entire inside of my nose and it wasn't the same for three weeks._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

TheAnvil 0 #17 November 3, 2004 Thanks everyone! The traditional hot toddy...I added tequila instead...just a splash... PhillyKev - I'm not that sick, though I appreciate the advice. I rarely get sick. I take vitamins and either eat garlic or take a garlic tablet every day (scared of cancer; runs in the family). Whenever I get a cold it really hits me hard. I feel like skydivexxl choke slammed me 1000 times and then threw me out of a plane to kick a mountain's ass again.

RkyMtnHigh 0 #21 November 3, 2004 Yikes,Vin...perhaps I gave you that. I say you should call in sick, head down to Deland, make a jump, take some zinc lozenges and you'll feel like a million bucks. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheAnvil 0 #22 November 3, 2004 Woe is me! Oh no! Alas! For I am still A sick JACKASS!!! Work will be miserable today, as something is going on that I cannot miss. However, I'm sure that if Skymama would come up here to Jacksonville, make me chicken soup, and rub my belly that I would feel much better. I'd even take my cough syrup without whining... Naaah. Stay away. I don't want anyone else getting this evil cold. Vinny the Anvil Post Traumatic Didn't Make The Lakers Syndrome is REAL JACKASS POWER!!!!!!

Paige 0 #23 November 3, 2004 QuoteYikes,Vin...perhaps I gave you that. I say you should call in sick, head down to Deland, make a jump, take some zinc lozenges and you'll feel like a million bucks. Indeed, I'll make a special trip out to the dz to make the Anvil feel better. It will have to wait till after my yoga session so any time after 12 is good DeLand will make everything better, esp. airing out.

DexterBase 1 #24 November 4, 2004 Get medicines to treat each symptom seperately. Avoid medications that are designed to treat everything with one dose, you won't get enough of anything to treat any symptom effectively. Get cough medicine for your cough. Get Acetaminophen for your headache/fever/body aches Get Tea because it's good Get a decongestant if you need it. Pound lots of water because a hydrated body is a better functioning body. Basically the rule of thumb is: Treated aggressively, the common cold will clear up in about seven days. Left alone, it should resolve itself in about a week.
