You know what the worst part about being sick is? I mean, besides the copious amounts of phlegm and non-sexy hacking and coughing? It's the overwhelming amount of crazy remedies that people suggest to you. Most have to do with disgusting combinations of food or alcohol. Yesterday a friend of mine told me to eat raw garlic or raw ginger. I suppose this doesn't really cure anything, but temporarily diverts your attention from your cold to your uncontrollable puking. I've also been told repeatedly to drink a few shots of whisky, also with the same intention of making me concentrate on barfing instead of boogers.
So far chamomile tea with lots of honey has made me feel better. But I think it's because I love the Celestial Seasonings bear on the package of tea and not the tea itself.

Whenever I was sick, my dad would make me drink a combination of warm brandy, sugar and a raw egg. I don't remember it working but it did warm my chest on the why down.
I hope you're feeling better soon.
Tru. Tru. True. About the crazy suggested medication. I have a not crazy but good one. One lemon pressed in a lil bit of real good honey taken before bed always works!
Bon retablissement!

You're probably better or nearly there by now, but my suggestion would be to break arm. You will forget all about the germs.
