Remedies

I've been trying to shake off this cold that's been lingering for several weeks now. I first began with taking daily doses of Oil of Oregano and that kept most of it at bay.



But I still developed a sore throat and a cough. From there, I used a throat spray and that took care of the sore throat. Two bottles of Buckleys later, and I found myself eating cloves of garlic in an effort to get rid of the cough, which is still haunting me.



Do I have the post-nasal drip cough thing? My ears and sinuses are all plugged, too. I'm now doing the Sinus Rinse, which is an odd and weird invention but somewhat effective. My nose is no longer running but my ears are still plugged. I was told
eating walnuts was good for coughs as well.



Another remedy someone told me to try was to put Vicks Vaporub on my feet, put on some socks, and go to bed. I'll give that a go tonight!

  2. I normally do a double-dose of Nyquil before bed and I sleep like a rock. The next morning I'm back to about 80%.

    Stay at home for the day and repeat the following night.
