Sick

So I'm at home sick today.  I rarely ever get sick.  A cold here at there, but for the most part I'm pretty healthy.  Yesterday both my roommate and I woke up with sore throats, congestion, and the sniffles.  Last night I could hardly swallow, my throat seemed so tight.  Still congested, kinda achy, head kinda hurts, swollen glands.  Don't feel good.
What's the best OTC for this sorta thing?

I started feeling sick yesterday too. Same symptoms...sniffles, sore throat, itchy eyes. I took some nyquil before bed so I could sleep, but I am still kinda feeling under the weather today.

Sad! Steve and I like Contact, but be sure to get the non-drowsy kind if you don't want to be sleepy. And I'm an Afrin-Addict. Hope you feel better soon!

Zicam is what I go with but you have to start it pretty early on in the cold. Get better!!!!!!

Rachel! I have the miracle prescription for you. Take some water, and warm it up. Add some salt and then gargle. Do not swallow. You will be amazed at how effective this is for a sore throat. You'll feel 100% immediately. Also take some advil or ibuprofin.

Rach, Im so sorry you are sick- I have those same symptoms, except I also want to puke - which is fun :) and I have a big fat tummy-which never makes anyone feel good.
Get better soon!!
