Sick

[ousdahl]

Ugh this sucks.

*coughcough*

What’s your guys’s routine for trying to make your head stop feeling like it’s being squeezed in a vice?

[pdub]

You got the beaverfeaver.

[ousdahl]

Well I figured that’s why it stings when I pee, but wut about the head cold?

[shindig]

Advil cold and sinus (behind the pharmacy counter)..ibuprofen and pseudoephedrine.

[ousdahl]

Whoa, easy there Heisenberg. I’m just trying to fight a cold here...

[NewtonHawk11]

I kind of do this weird thing that works more often that not when I have head cold..

But I bundle up in sweats and a sweatshirt and sleep as far below the covers as I can. I'll more often than not wake up feeling better. Maybe not 100%, but a good 80%.

[jhawks99]

Emerg in C. or whatever that stuff is called. I'm told some people swear by Zinc as well.

[TDub]

Pickle juice

Or tea honey and whisky

[shindig]

Whoa, easy there Heisenberg. I’m just trying to fight a cold here...

You wanna get rid of your headache or not? Sure take the Zinc stuff too and drink plenty of water.

[Cascadia]

Cocaine

[PhDhawk]

hookers

[pdub]

That's how he caught the beaverfeaver.

My dad used to say that, if you take medicine you’ll feel better in a week; if you don’t take medicine, it may take seven days to get better.

[TDub]

Medicine doesbt always cure you faster but it makes you feel able to function faster

[ousdahl]

HA!

Who’s to say I wasn’t feigning a cold so I could leave work in time for tip-off! #goodfan

I can’t believe all you guys fell for it too!

Jk but for real I’ve had a nasty cold, and leaving early for tip-off is just a silver lining.

aaaand since I can’t pregame with beers since I’m on cold meds, can I just pregame with more cold meds?

I mean they come with that convenient little shot glass and everything!

[TDub]

Who says you cant have a beer with cough syrup. Pinkies out.

[defixione]

Brandy, garlic, lemon slice, honey, followed by lots of VC.

[DrPepper]

I've heard the zinc thing from people I respect, but I haven't tried it.
Rest and fluids. Spicy food to clear the sinuses.
"Benedryl + Decongestant" lets me sleep. It only helps the symptoms, but sure can make me feel better.

what’s the old adage? feed a cold, starve a flu?

i’ve gone the zinc route, and think it helped...though, unless i’m mistaken, that and even more so the vitamin c, don’t do much once you’re already sick
