I never can remember this so I found this helpful little chart here to figure out that thankfully I only have a cold and not the flu. Achoo! At least for now… Can we cure the common cold already? 🙂
Bring on the tea, honey, ginger ale and chicken soup.
hahahah…. nice joke
Bring in the Vitamin C, the Zinc and antioxidant foods and supplements too.
Commiserations. I too have a cold – doing my best to just ignore it.
great information
Chi is the high or is it low?
Yep! That's been my experience… So it must be right, huh? 🙂
Get Garlic! Lots of Garlic. Great for boosting the immune system
Great information,I agree!
Remember, you can really only treat the symptoms and any " remedy" is meant for helping with coping and building up your immune system. Sleep and a lot of fluids does wonders for the flu!
good to know
I always take an injection against flue virus +Amanda Blain ,and it works , never get flu !
Feel better soon +Amanda Blain !!
Then what causes common cold? i thought they are related
cold viruses are different from flu viruses
influenza = flu
retrovirus = cold
different viruses both mutate incessantly and are a major pain in the ass.
especially if you have young kids who keep bringing home what their classmates share so readily.
Hm… I seem to have both 😀
Very good your comment. There is much confusion between flu and cold in every corner of this world.
+Amanda Blain I took a food safety class instructed by the CDC and they informed the class that over 70% of the time you have Flu symptoms it’s actually a food borne illness, especially if you eat out a lot.
Hope you are feeling better +Amanda Blain ! Stay warm.
Get well Blain…
yeah,Achuuuuuu….:(

It's always interesting how many people mistake nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea for "stomach flu", when it's usually food poisoning.
