Okay think I'll go lay down

I woke up saturday with a little sore throat, nothing major, by the end of saturday it hurt. Today, it still hurts and I'm doing everything to minimize it. NyQuil, chicken pot pie, sore throat lozenges, ricola dual action cough drops, and just now I went and took a dose of DayQuil.

I'll be on later.

If you have some black tea & honey that is really helpful for a sore throat to drink it hot. The boy came home from school a couple years ago and was so hoarse he could barely talk. I fixed a pot of black tea and he drank 2 cups of it hot and within a couple hours he got his voice back.

@cherokeepatti Wow. Yea we don't have that. We do have green tea and honey however. And my voice is fine, but my throat is just sore. Still able to smell, unsure if it's covid or not. I'm wanting to say it's a cold from the weather change but I was wrong on that assumption last time.

I work in hospitals and travel alot. This cold and flu season has been terrible I can tell you. I hardly know anyone that hasn't been sick within the last 2 months.

Remember to add vitamin C to your daily intake. This can be the fizzy Emergen-C packs or just fresh lemon in tea as @cherokeepatti suggested. It is really an immune booster, ginger as well.

@REMsleep I did drink OJ day before yesterday, but think I'll go and grab another glass of it now.

@Stereoguy Thanks. Well my throat still hurts, but my head doesn't hurt like it did yesterday, so that's good at least.
