Hope you get to feeling better. I live with colds and flus as I move from school to school through out the year. Nothing but damn germ factories. Other than treating symptoms, last year I tried the Zicam nasal gel. Worked quite well for me for 2 different sessions. The colds were not as long or irritating.

On the other hand they had to pull it last year as it could make you go deaf or blind (I forget which). So when I use it up this year nit sure wjat I'll use.

Pfft to all you peeps with germy little ankle biters.

Al,
This may sound like an old wive's tail but I assure you, when my wife and I have a bad cold, this does seem to help shake it faster.

Get a bunch of limes and squeeze them into a little pot.
Heat the crap out of it until it nearly starts boiling. Add honey.

Hold your nose and drink it as hot as you can. Take a couple of aspirin or cold medicine with it.
After you drink it, jump in bed and sweat your butt off.
Crap works. You will feel better.

Didn't see this first. Same thing I guess but more drinkable with tea.
