I don't feel well

[pitstopbunny]

I woke up yesterday with a bad cough and aches and pains, I had a sleepless night because of it.....what can I take that will ease the symptoms, I have some strong paracetamol and some cough medicine, which is useless....any other ideas - this is my first cough for 4 years and I am hating it!

Have you tried those all-in -one Beechams capsules, then some hot lemon and honey in a drink??

[pitstopbunny]

Thanks Pink Fizz, I have some honey & lemon in the kitchen will go and make some up

honey and lemon as pink suggests,
At first sign of a bad cold or flu i did out the vicks vapourub and my vaporiser. The vaporiser i have on all night in the bedroom and it does help me sleep and feel much better.

At bed time Night Nurse is really good.
Only thing for a cough is hot drinks and chocolate I think-cough medicine just gives me a tummy ache!
Take Vit C and Echinacea to try to limit length of cold and hope you feel better soon!

Poor bunny :-( you've got the coughing virus that's doing the rounds as mother says....
Mr B is now taking antobiotics as it really has floored him and that's with me making him eat healthily too!!!
Take the paracetamol for now, but you sound like you need to treat yourself to Daynurse and Nightnurse or Beechams day and night and go to your bed.....
Get Well Soon and Look After Yourself :-)
