Thanks you daughter and grandson..for sharing.
The good news is that it won't go into bronchitis..THANK YOU ECF, V4L and my girls here!
If any one has advice or homemade cures..let me know! Short of throwing frogs around in full moon...I am open to anything! OK even frogs!

MK,I luv your avatar!!You look so pretty!!

OK,try Smilin menthol,it always helps clear my sinuses.

Sorry MK I haven't found anything that helps them nasty colds! Get some rest and hope it doesn't hang around to long.

MK, this crap that is going around has everyone landing in the DR's office. You may consider it. My hubby caught it and is on 1 month and is finally getting over it. I got tired of listening to him so I made him go. Doesn't help that he is diabetic but you know stubborn men...LOL. I hope you get to feeling better. Try some no nic menthol mixed strong. My hubby never did smoke but I whipped up a batch, very strong, and made him vape it. He said that it helped open up his passages and lungs.

Oh MK I hope you don't have what I have. I have had this stupid cold for at least 2 weeks now and it still won't go away. No fever or anything but a horrible soar throat, and cough that won't go away. Last two days food isn't really on my mind you know.

Speedy recovery MK,

BTW ladies can you buy those menthol crystals at the store? I never really invested in them since hubby and I never smoked menthol, but right now I'm willing to try anything.

I have noticed that this one is kind of different. No fever to speak of and not much in the way of coughing..except when I am sleeping and the junk in my nose goes wrong! But sneezing and a stuffy nose from you know where! This feels like an alwegy attack in hyperdrive. Nyquill night and day and I am going to CVS to find some vicks throat lozengers I love the original vicks flavor..but that's hard to find.

Hope your feeling better !!!! I keep a box of Emergen C to nip anything I might of picked up when I go into town... It seems help nip the onset..

I push grape juice on anyone coming down with anything here. 100% pure - unsweetened. I get the generic at wally world for like $5.00 a gallon, and in two days they will drink the whole gallon

If you dont like grape, any of the fruit juices high in antioxidants should help

We pump the time released Vit C and lots of chicken soup but I think the juice would be real helpful too.

I have some fresh oranges that we took off our tree in St. Cloud last week. I have been drinking it like crazy! I feel much better..still have the sniffles and a light cough..nothing to keep me down. I do get tired easy and break out in a sweat when working..also nothing big. Thank goodness for vaping!
The real problem is Mike..he is coming down with it! This will mean a hospital visit for him....groan... and lots of running back and forth for me. Men!

I start pushing the grape juice at the first sign of sniffles! Most times thats as far as it goes
