Lots of feel better hugs! Colds suck!
Not sick sick today, but I'm home nursing a sore arm since I had a physical yesterday and the doc at student health recommended a pneumonia vaccine due to my adrenal gland problems. Of course, it's an intramuscular vaccine. Stupid shots.
Feel better soon, chica! What's the countdown to the trip to Thailand? Are you coming up my way anytime soon?

I overdid it on the Robitussin, I think. I've never taken it before but I think it's made my head spin.
I am a mess.
I have 2 bottles of Sprite and 2 large bottles of (near empty) water on my desk. And many tissues. People see this and cringe. Good, exactly what I was going for, heh heh.
 I want to pull up my gel mouse pad and go to sleep on it. Mmmmm, fluffy mouse pad. Must stay.... awak ...zzzzzzzzz...!

Being dizzy isn't good! Do you have to drive home? Do you think you'll be able to make the commute?
I hope you start feeling better!

Got BF to drive me home. I wolfed down some chicken and the room slowed down a tad, but not entirely.
Ugh, I'm so OVER being sick! I wish this sore throat would go away!

Sorry to hear that you are so sick Nelly Hope you feel better soon. Is it possible that the room spinning might just be from being really over congested and not from the Robitusson? Just a thought. I can sympathize with you there, I'm a dizzy mess thanks to a stupid inner-ear infection or something...my left eye is going to, getting all swollen and red. Yuck, I hope this isn't the start of something.

I know just how you feel. It sucks! I'm just getting over something similar. The best thing for the sore throat is to gargle with warm salt water and I found that eating something salty helped. Also hot chicken noodle soup is soothing. Cloriseptic spray is a temporary fix.
The best thing for the cough is an expectorant. It's really good to cough up that phlem. You don't want it lurking around in your chest. Honey lemon cough drops are good, too.
I ended up going to the clinic and getting some antibiotics.
They said I had an upper respiratory infection.
Feel better soon

Hope you get better soon. I love the fact that you set up your desk to keep people away. A good hawking sound really sends them to the next room.
I wish I had a remedy for you, but aside from slippery elm tea (YUCK) I don't know what to tell you.
