Vitamin C, get some zinc tablets too, drink loads of water, eat as well as you can, plenty of fruit & veg.

Not much else you can do other than steam inhalation if you are congested.

 

 

I've heard a Milton tablet works wonders.....

I have some Milton liquid but wouldn't know how much to take.

 

Don't take any Milton, Daniel was pulling my leg after an 'incident' I had with some Milton tablets, I mistook them for soluble paracetamol tablets, the results were less than pleasant, & I stunk like a Butlin's deckchair for days....:biggrin:

 

So DON'T INGEST ANY MILTON, it will make you think your cold was preferable, although the nurses looked nice whilst lying in my hospital bed...

Zinc pills, strong tea, paracetamals, lucazade any thing your body fancies, thick duvet and sweat it out for 12 hours.

 

To avoid getting it in future a zinc pill twice a week and fresh fruit veg. Alcohol prevents the absorbtion of vitamins into the body so a few dry nights helps.

Blimey ok thanks I was googling how much to take and was going to mix some up with water......

 

Good job I looked again!

 

 

NO, NO, NO..... Don't google that it may come up with the image of Geoff laying sparko on a paramedics stretcher in his leopard print pants!!

 

Phew, glad you didn't take any!

When I first started doing nights I couldn't sleep properly I. The day so pinched some of my brothers zopyclone, when they ran out a friend said I could have some of her tamazepan.

After a week she asked me if I was sleeping any better and I said no didn't make a bit of difference, she asked to look at the packet I had taken from her bathroom and I had taken a packet of folic acid, which is what birds take to get pregnant!
