Well, here I'm with a bad cold and feeling terrible because I'm so limited when I feel sick. I never get sick ,but when I do is terrible. Well, I have fever and a terrible congestion ,and is really cold outside. Anybody has any good homemade remedies for me? I hate to take over the counter prescriptions.

Ginger is said to help the upset stomach, in fact I use it now, while I am pregnant, and it seems to help, as long as you can get over the taste and smell. Good luck, and feel better soon!

Thank you for your suggestion ,but my stomach still doesn't hurt that much. I just feel that my head is going to explode.

We are using some ayurvedic medicines for cold.You can take dried ginger with black tea.It is I think a simple way that may help you to get some relief soon.

Yes, black tea is a great idea. I'm okay now ,but I'll try the dried ginger with the black tea next time if I get a bad cold again.

Well, I hate to be sick too. Colds, cough and fever are usually common when the weather is cold. I seldom get sick too but when i have colds, I usually take decongestant tablets. If you dont like taking medicines, boiled ginger can help and inhalers. What I really dont like when I feel sick is, when it is accompanied by nausea and vomitting, my head is like spinning around and I can't get up. Hope you get well soon.

Well, I'm feeling better now ,but thank you for your suggestions. This time I guess I wasn't as lucky as previous years and I got a cold just like most people during the winter. Take care.
