Thankyou ladies!! Luckily, I live in the uk, wales, where there are no prescription charges or medical charges in fact! So if im still feeling like I am on Monday then I'll go visit the quacks!!! Good Luck everyone! :-) xxxxx
Yep right there with ya...lots if decaf lemon tea with honey...a spoonful of honey on its own helps soothe your throat..doesn't last long but feels nice at the time. Children's liquid Tylenol helps soothe the throat too. I take 15ml and then one extra strength tablet. I was told that other than saline sinus rinse I wasn't allowed to take anything for congestion. But everyone seems to hear different things depending on your doctor. If coughing gets really bad puffers can be taken. Sabutamol or ventalin is what I get prescribed to help keep my chest open. But its pricy if you don't have coverage.
Good luck hun. Lots of rest and fluids!! :-)
The pharmacists told me straight DM with nothing else in it, vaporub for congestion, and hot water with pasteurized honey for sore throat. I'll be honest..not as good as nyquil, but I survived.
My dr said I could take sudaffed for my congestion. I'm sick too. Lots of orange juice and halls cough drops. Plus a humidifier in every room helps.
