JerseyKrissi72 -> I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/12/2007 12:42:02 PM)

I have been going round' bragging how I have been taking so much herbal health stuff and haven't gotten sick all year long now I feel like shit[:(] I knew it was too good to be true..being diabetic makes it only worse for me..I don't have a fever but am dizzy, stuffed up and coughing...my throat feels like i swallowed a sword (which usually isn't a problem for me[8D]--hey, i have to keep my humor)...I think it's probably just a change of weather thing but my ex was visiting w/ the boys Saturday afternoon and I think he left his sickness behind- can't say he never gave me anything I guess...Any cure for a very sore throat and stuffiness? I'm open to just about anything at this point....
 
 
 
I need a hug[:(]

Ahhhhhh....ain't that sweeet!
We were talking the other day about Imus. His wife has them, including the dog, on all that healthy, all natural stuff and seems like the poor bastard is always sick. Sorry I can't offer up anything but my sympathy krissi. I have heard though that troll slobber can be a miracle drug......

<get well hugs for you>


Just get as much rest as you can, and watch out for strep. If you get a fever, see a real doctor immediately. =)


I hope you feel better, being sick sucks aaasssssssss

Allergies maybe?



cjenny -> RE: I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/12/2007 1:09:04 PM)

Try gargling hot water with a couple of tablespoons of salt added to it. It's not the best tasting but it always helped my sore throats.
Hope you feel bettah soon!
I spent the last 12 hours communing with my commode thanks to some bad chicken so I understand feeling like crap.



JerseyKrissi72 -> RE: I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/12/2007 1:21:13 PM)

sorry to hear jenny (hugs). i hope you feel 100 percent soon



cjenny -> RE: I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/12/2007 1:34:21 PM)

Hey the upside is that I lost over 5 lbs [:D] now go gargle some yummy hot salt water.



AquaticSub -> RE: I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/12/2007 1:35:24 PM)

Umm... I find DayQuil or a coughdrop to be very effective. However those probably aren't what you want so... when I've got a sore throat and don't want to deal with meds I gargle salt water. Try not to swallow athough when I had a really bad sore throat - to the point of being unable to talk - I swallowed it sometimes to get it all the way down the throat. That provided temporary relief.

If you are capable of doing shots, I also suggest heating a shot of whiskey in the mircowave with a dollop of honey at the bottom. Shoot it, but be sure you don't have to drive anywhere. It helps and makes me pretty happy! [:)]

nyrisa -> RE: I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/12/2007 2:29:57 PM)

I can't stand to gargle salt water, always makes me queasy. However, drinking chicken broth or eating chicken noodle soup will serve the same function, by soothing your throat, and also the extra fluid is good for you. Warm herbal tea with honey and lemon juice added helps also.

Mixing a half teaspoon of honey and a half teaspoon of lemon juice makes a nice, non-medicated cough medicine and throat soother, although if you are diabetic, you'd have to consider the effect on your blood glucose.

Those Hall's throat lozenges with zinc taste pretty good, and help also. Hope you feel better soon!

But wait, act now, and we will throw in a bowl of chicken noodle soup.  I like soup, which helps my sinuses and sore throat.



missturbation -> RE: I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/12/2007 6:36:23 PM)

Get well soon hun xx



JerseyKrissi72 -> RE: I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/12/2007 6:41:53 PM)

I bought some diabetic cough syrup so i'm gonna take that. my temperature is 99 which is a lil high for me but nothing to worry..took an ibuprophren( or however you spell it) for fever.



soultoshare -> RE: I Should Learn To Keep My Mouth Shut~! (3/13/2007 12:17:59 AM)

If you're having problems wiih a lingering fever, even a low grade one, try this......take the hottest shower you can stand for as long as you can stay in...or until you deplete your hot water supply.  Then dress in swaets, and take every blanket you own and go to bed.  By the time you get up in the am, your fever will have broken....to me, that  is the worst thong about being sick.

Also, tea with honey in it helps the throat, even tes without honey helps a bit.  And homemade chicken soup is great!  It works wonders when I'm sick.  And if all else fails, there's Ny-Quil.....great stuff!  At least, if you feel like crap, you don't know it cuz you're out cold!

Good luck, sure hopw you feel better!

 I am on Keflex now- went to the hospital and they told me it was the beginning of an upper respiratory infection..I feel like shit but I'm taking Mucinex to help clear out my sinuses..I am drinking alot of fluids and feeling a little better- not much- my ears are red on the inside and hurt a little..I surely could use a hug and some SLURP.[:(]
