<div class="IPBDescription">flu.</div> God I hate this.. First time I got ill for two years and I had totally forgotten how horrible this is: my nose is running, my eyes are over-watered and aching and I can barely stand up. Anyone got any ehm how would you call it "herbs that help" and what to do to get rid of this within 2 days when Im off to a party that I don't want to miss. I know sitting by the computer isn't healthy but BLEARGH im not the kind of person who likes to lay in bed for a whole day. Any special tea or such tips you know that help well or medicin or any other sort. Don't mind this being a dumb topic, but Im just bored and would like to see what kind of tips people got for flu and slight nausea...

[edit] sick spelling.. get it?

    I feel as if I would go to sleep, I would choke on my own snot... now that's a way to die, I can already see the headlines: "****tty death in the city of Tampere: a boy chokes on his own snot while asleep" <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Coby, you don't have to stay in bed to get better. You just have to drink a lot, get some vitamins and don't watch TV or be on the computer. That doesn't help your head any... <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    But the thing is, I don't have anything better to do.. I couldn't read a book watch tv or even browse with computer? Heck, sounds like being in jail <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo--> But yes, I have 3 litres of juice here in bottles next to me... so I don't have to run in the kitchen back and forth all the time. I did get an idea for the vitamins though hence we got around 5kg of oranges and stuff in the frigge, whoopti-doo. I'll grab a painkiller and A + D-vitamin pills on the go, too... <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Chicken Noodle Soup! I heard somewhere that it was scientifically proven to help with a cold/flu because it has special enzymes or something like that....

    Anime. I was down a few months ago, to the point where I spent the entire day in bed (And not because someone else told me to either) and when I wasnt sleeping, or hallucinating, I watched anime. It got a bit trippy when I started hallucinating anime, but It was worth it.

    I was up and about 2 days later. Anime = Teh UberCure.

    My friend made me take a cup of tea, and a cup of Theraflu and I felt a lot better in the morning, don't know if you'll feel better, but it's worth a try.

    Umm, you should try Uña de Gato (<i>Uncaria Tomentosa</i>), its a really good herb, its a desinflammatory(is it spelled right?), good against cronic asthma, its good with quimiotherapy/Irradiaton, good with artritis, herpes , alergies, ulcers and it really helps boosting the immune system.

    Those are some of the things it can do.

    Have a few spoon fulls of the curry sauce from either a Tindaloo or a Phal it will clear your nose and keep it clear not to mention perk you up.

    I usually go with the Campbell soups... Cream of Mushroom when I'm not really sick, Tomato for sorta sick or recovering, or Chicken Noodle when I'm ill (pot-cooked, all of them), but I don't remember if they have those cans overseas.. Something about too many preservatives? meh.

    Otherwise I go with Ginger Ale and saltines. And lots of Vitamin C.

    SunnyD! That helps, right? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
