V painful sore throat - what can I take while BFing?

[TheNewandImprovedMrsHollywood]

I am posting this in health and BFing asI wasn't sure where best to put it.

I spent yesterday feeling incredibly rough, with a dreadful sore throat. Today, I feel a bit better in myself but my throat is still incredibly painful - if not more so. I have only taken paracetamol and ibuprofen, and gargled with Oraldene, so far. Every lozenge and drink says you can't take while BFing, but there must be something I can take. I am in agony!

Any thoughts welcome. Thanks.

Manuka honey as high a factor as you can afford ;)
