Sick Suggestions - Help. !

Hi everyone...

I was suppose to be going to Picotto/Vath this saturday but all of a sudden I got sick last night and now I feel like shit! My friend from AJax is coming all the way down and she has her ticket, I don't want to leave her going by herself.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get better!

I second that Neocitran motion... puts you out cold though so make sure you have nothing other than sleep planned when you take this!

And I hear that MDMA is a fabulous pain reliever/decongestant/cure-all... just from rumours of course

i 3rd (or 4th) teh neo-citran suggestion. the only thing that can make you better is lots of rest. try taking a few hot baths w/ epsom salts to "sweat it out" and take echanncia and garlic (along w/ vit c ofcourse).

"Buckleys -- It tastes awful and it works"
That's their slogan lol...

"sweating it out" is a bit dubious Neocitran is excellent for treating symptoms and helping you rest/sleep, but won't really do anything to make you "well" any faster. It's essentially tylenol and a decongestant if you look at the ingredients

I'd say 500mg of Vit. C every 4 hours that you're awake, eat well, stay hydrated, keep warm and get lots of sleep. Zinc lozenges if you have a sore throat. Echinaccea apparently helps shorten the duration of a cold, but doesn't help prevent it, providing you start taking it immediately when you start to feel sick.

e provides *great* relief for congestion, colds, headaches, etc, lol...THE WONDER DRUG!!! um...so I've been told, anyway

Mind you, you'll pay dearly a couple of days later though with your cold being extended...but it's all about enjoying that one night, right?

It's fucking horrible, from personal experience it didn't work.
Chicken Soup, NeoCitron, and lots of rest. Sleep and sweat.

Just don't mix unless your a dj.

If you've got a cold, try the 12-hour Sudafed

Posted by matty on Nov-21-2003 20:09:

the Tylenol cold and flu tea works wonders!!! Its just like Neocitrin but tastes better

i suggest trying Contac-C overnight. they are huge horse pills but you sleep so well and wake up very well rested.

drink a lot of liquids and try to "eliminate" the sickness .

good luck.

I agree... Contac works great. And drink lots and lots of tea!! I prefer green tea.

yah good suggestions. We all know that when your sick it gets worse at night, and that's what I'm worried about! Boooooo
I'm sure all of you will be staying away from me if I go. hahahaha.

from being a computer geek trainer and not being able to miss work, i'll tell you that robitussin makes some magic pills. look for the orange gelcaps, and drink LOTS of water. those pills are magic, and they don't make you drowsy.

maybe take that after the 12 houf sudafed, but remember, anything that makes you drowsy is robbing you of sleep. you don't get your REM sleep with those types of medication, so you end up being more exhausted for the next 24-36 hours, though you may have recovered from said condition.

Dayquil is another amazing drug for cold. Mind you don't get the syrup; get the gel capsules. I dunno it seems to work wonders on me

Posted by 'mju:zik on Nov-22-2003 02:24:

ECSTACY!!!!

if you dont get better by tomorrow of course

Posted by Fir3start3r on Nov-22-2003 06:50:

try to take frequent warm showers, it helps to regulate ur body temp back to its normal level.
