| _______________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 12:23pm - the_reverend ""] I would rather drink my own semen than theraflu |
| ___________________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 12:24pm - carina~succubus ""] Mar 15, 2005 - the_reverend] I would rather drink my own semen than theraflu i\'d raher drink your ... as well =) |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 12:24pm - paganmegan ""] lots of vitamin c, zinc and echinachea supplements |

| _____________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 12:27pm - paganmegan ""] welcome. Being sick sucks goat pee. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 12:31pm - Scoracrasia ""] Alka seltzer cold/flu shit works pretty well. get the Orange flavored shit if you like that sort of thing. |
| _______________________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 12:35pm - Carcinogenic_Cookies ""] I usually do the echinachea and vitamin c when I feel something coming on. My nose is now totally useless, so I will be forced to leave the house for the sole purpose of nasal decongestant. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 12:53pm - Christraper ""] whiskey |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:01pm - handinjury ""] As for OTC stuff: Nyquil,theraflu, vitamin C pills, multi-vitamins. LOTS OF WATER!! tea. Or go to a walk-in for $10 and get a few Prescription stuff that works way better. Like my $20 cough syrup i just ran out of yesterday :-( |
| ________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:03pm - Abbath ""] green tea all the way |
| __________________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:04pm - largefreakatzero ""] Airborne tabs & Zicam spray. Works wonders. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:10pm - the_reverend ""] 5ccs of man-choudah in your back end, STAT! |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:12pm - litacore nli ""] [img] my roomie took this stuff (Walgreen's I think has it) and it worked like a charm she said Oscillococcinum |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:14pm - swamplorddvm ""] You know, vitamin C doesn't really cure anything. |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:18pm - Christraper ""] Im serious, drink a bottle of whiskey. Youll be hungover the next morning but you wont be sick anymore. |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:44pm - dread_104 ""] dayqhil so you can go to work, otc syrup for the post nasal drip (2 days of swallowing snot will make you feel like you have the flu/if you normally suffer from sinus problems then use sinus med instead) and in the pm, my wonderful stash of codeine cough syrup...just for the fuck of it! |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 1:45pm - litacore nli ""] yeah but she'll be all dried out, eeek! unless she drinks ten times more water than whiskey |
| ________________________________________________ [Mar 15,2005 2:25pm - bane of existence (J) ""] zinc and vit C |
