What kind of "sickness" do I have? Should I go,see a doctor?
OK: It started off with a real sore throat 3 nights ago.. the next morning I felt weak, had a bit of a runny nose, blocked ears and a little bit of cough...it got worse at night, especially the troat.
this morning I wake up and have the worst cough... well, that means: It sounds like I am barking! my lungs hurt when I cough... not much lose stuff coming up...
I feel dizzy and very weak.My nose is fine, but my ears are blocked..
I have my own business, so I decided not to work today......but I have such a big saturday ahead of me ! Working wise... I can not be sick !
I am taking Flu and Cold Tablets since yesterday ( Codral) .They don't make me feel much better or at least, I don't feel any different.
Any suggestions? anything that gets me through tomorrow and saturday? HELP PLEASE !

This is a remedy we use in our Latino culture. Boil 1 cup of water with 2 tablespoons of honey. Then squeeze in 1/2 lime. Then drink it. This soothes the throat and cleans your nose up. Then get some Vaporub and rub it on your throat if it hurts as your drinking the remedy and cover it with a scarf. This will also help you sweat that out. Good luck!

Sounds like a run of the mill virus. The key is to treat your systems AND help your immune system. Take lots of Vitamin C (I know some people say it doesn't work but it has always helped me). Don't forget to eat nutritious food! Your body needs fuel to fight. Also, make sure your meds have a decongestant for your nose and guaifenesin to dislodge what's in your chest. Airborne would help boost your immune system too. Drink hot teas to soothe your throat, and add honey if you can because the good bacteria will help kill what in there. And don't forget to sleep. Hope you feel better.
