Martin B Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I can not sleep. It's just gone half 11 and I've been trying for ages, but I'm suffering with a sore throat which I've had all weekend, and now I have a runny nose and a killing ear, I'm going to call the doctors in the morning, but untill then I'm so miserable and I ache. Just to let you all know, before I start getting told off for late posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I did wonder as its a school night! Take a pain killer (under adult supervision - legal disclaimer) and try and get some sleep. A hot drink should help your throat. Hope you feel better tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted February 4, 2007 Author Share Posted February 4, 2007 Thanks Christian, I tried just hot water but it hasn't had much effect, my voice is a little clearer! As for paracetamol, I might just go and get one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Man Banned Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Hope you feel better soon Martin I would say that one of the best things you can do is drink water and LOTS of it. I don't normally drink much more than normal but last week when I had it I was drinking nearly 3 litres of it a day. And Ladies - ManFlu is a very serious condition!!

Linda Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Hope you are feeling a bit better Martin. It always feels worse if you don't get any sleep. I agree with Andrew about drinking lots of water - you can easily become dehydrated. I always take lots of vitamin C if I have a cold - it's certainly worth a try to boost your body's own defences.

Martin B Posted February 5, 2007 Author Share Posted February 5, 2007 Hi eveybody, thanks for your good wishes. I hope all of those who also have colds, or flu get better soon. I tried to go to school today but was sent home practically straight away so my Grandma came to pick me up, and I've been sat on her sofa all day. If I feel like this tomorrow, I won't be going to school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 And Ladies - ManFlu is a very serious condition!!
