when you have a cold your germs make your body think its cold so you pile on the layers and the germs multiply

i had a bit of a cold last week, but i got over it.

my asthma was absolutely killing me when i was in grade 11 and 12 and the year after during those winters. i was playing lots of hockey and it just wasnt working.

i was on piles of drugs and my life was...well extremely unhealthy, but ill spare you from the details.

i hope you get better soon hello angel!

 

[HelloAngel]

Thanks everyone. You guys are the best. I'm still up and working, but 6p is quickly approaching and i can go back to the couch after that.

This has been a terrible winter so far for the cold season! I'm usually a fairly healthy person - but I have had three brutual colds since December! I'd feel good for about a week and then it would hit again. It sucks trying to work etc... with one functioning nostril! In my case, nothing I took seemed to help things at all
Plus I recently switched jobs am now in pediatrics. We all know little kids are basically germ factories ( to all my patients!) and I've been lucky enough to catch just about everything since my immune system isnt used to it yet.
From past experience - Dayquill liquicaps did well for the daytime. Sleep is really one of the best things you can do - but I sure this isnt an option working full time etc. IF you can allow yourself to (and I know this may sound silly to some) - take some nyquil or tylenol PM - something along those lines and try and get a good 12hrs of sleep!
