Proper flu is evil!
If I catch a cold I just get soooo happy. Sniffles, coughs and the rest I can put up with .... the flu almost kills me.
Of all the cures that don't work ... whiskey is the best!
Get well soon xx |

Never have the flu jab and I never get a clod either always warm and people moan at me when they see me out with no jacket on lol natural central heating and insulation wink, wink but this has hit me for six snotty nose and spluttery coughs very attractive lol. Olbus oil or vicks in steaming hot water normally does the trick and great for the pores. |

"Any tips on getting rid of the blasted thing."
Nowt to do, it will go when it is good and ready. It is a life form but no one seems to know why it visits us in this way. A healthy lifestyle promoting a healthy immune system will help reduce the effects. Other than that you can only treat the symptoms. I find staying active as much as I can makes it leave more quickly. |
