*waves* Hi, everyone. Here's the situation:
I have the flu. I think- sore throat, nausea sometimes, aching neck, fever, lack of appetite, all around feels like hell. The throat is by far the worst right now, sore all the way from my collarbone to my nose on the right side, and just behind my nose on the left. Way with the ouch. Any suggestions? I know garlic, I know gargle salt water, I know otc meds like throat sprays. Any other ideas?

A teaspoon full of honey mixed with two drops of lemon essential oil should clear that throat of yours right up. Don't use more than 2 drops of the essential oil though! It could be bad for you. Also, for a better tasting method, raspberry leaf tea with sage and thyme will do wonders for a nasty throat. Oddly enough, I'm sick right now too; stuffy head/runny nose, chilled and achy.

It seems we're feeling the exact same way. gonk
I havn't been able to bring myself to eat a meal in more than 30 hours; plus, I couldn't make it to college today.
Honey Lemon tea can work wonders for your throat.

You've basically covered all the ones I know of.
For cough, a shot of wiskey and honey, or wiskey with a pepermint disolved in it is suposed to work wonders. Probably startles the cough right out of you.

MadGoddessDagan A hug is a nice remedy too!! *kisses for mirax* Love you and see you soon.. (for an ACTUAL remedy besides the wonderfull ones above, never underestimate the power of eucalyptus.. and carry a rose quartz) hehe... thank you punkin. ^_^ I don't have a rose quartz, I don't think. I've got a spoonful of honey and a spoonful of lemon dissolved in hot water that's soothing the owwies for now, but ugh.
(Oh, and I cut my hair. It should grow a tiny bit before the wedding, but I had to get rid of the green tips and straggly bits. It's about chin-length now. I'm working on hairstyles now, so don't worry, I'll find something. ^_^)
