Dr Schroeter prescribes Jamesons. It drowns man flu. It says on the bottle.

I had a bad case of man flu 3 weeks ago, it cleared up, only to come back as brochitis last week, knocked hell out of me.

 

Hot lemonade and lemsip and whiskey did the trick for me.

Zinc and vit c helps your immune system fight it!

Four or five large glasses of rouge followed by a glass of Eau de Vie should shift it

At least a bottle, 2 is better. Boil up some 7up (the sweetness helps it down). Add some cloves, 4-5 per cup. And some brown sugar (as above). If it really is a flu and not a bad cold, you'll need someone making them for you. It's important to drink them hot as you can take as this helps get a sweat going. Keep drinking, no matter how hard it is. You'll feel better in the morning, by Monday you won't know you ever had a flu.

 

Only had a proper flu once in my life, arrived just before I arrived home from college for Christmas about 10 years ago. Hit pretty suddenly, like a ton of bricks. Couldn't even sit up. My dad followed the above instructions to the letter. By the next morning I was literally fixed.

Good stuff,plenty of water & echinacea tablets,with all the garlic you can inflict on those around you.

It is worth thinking of a visit to the quacks...

 

I had man flu a while ago, - I suddenly felt rough at Saltex, I just carried one with life and work. I felt really rough at the APF and only afterwards stayed at home then went to the Docs. I had 3 patches of pleurisy, collapsed lung and double pneumonia! In total, I was ill for 2 months!

 

It helped me give up the fags tho!

 

Get well soon!
