Ill and want a moan

I've got a cold....again!!

3 weeks ago went down with what I suspect was covid although didn't test as wasn't going anywhere and didn't feel too horrific. Very bad cough and a runny nose for a couple of days. Lovingly passed on by DS!

DS came home last week from school with sniffles and yesterday I came down with another heavy cold. I've not slept at all because I'm so blocked up. My parents have come to stay as we are hosting Xmas and this is so shit!

Been looking forward to Christmas for months and now I'm bloody poorly.

Any tips on how to sleep most welcomed. I'm exhausted but just streaming!

Uniflu or any cold and flu medication. Nothing that is non drowsy. Hot water bottle and a cosy warm bed.

Hope you feel better soon..

I've been pretty similar. Mine turned into a sinus infection and I got antibiotics. In less than a day it's gone.

I'd recommend-
First defence
Vit d
Vit c
Zinc
Echinacea
Sudafed or cold n flu
Ibuprofen

Lots of fluids and rest.
Steam you head.
Hot bath
