Ah, im not feeling well the pat two days. My throat started to hurt this morning and I have been sneezing since yesterday morning. I hate it when im about to get colds, the symtoms are there and i hope drinking water could help it stop from becoming full blown colds. It got worst when I prepared cucumber with white pepper powder last night and I woke up sneezing hard this morning and even when I reached the office. Achooooooooooooo!

Hello dear Zelmarq. I am so sorry to hear that you do not feel well and hope that you will soon get recovered from sneezing. I think that you might have caught a cold and need to take some pills to get rid of the cold. Or you could drink more water as a subsidiary aid to help with the removal of the sneezing. Take care, dear friend.

It is strange that you are far from well, but you are still starting your discussion with Achooooooooooooo! And Achooooooooooooo! Of cold suffering you and your head. It becomes very difficult to work in such terrible condition. It is seasonal diseases but we should not look over these unfortunate happenings of the season. We must rush to doctor as it could also become complex and dangerous. I would like to request you please take care. Wish you good health.

Yes, i tell, its really not easy and then im here answering calls from time to time, i just pray the calls would stop coming even for a minute, but i guess the opposite is happening, they get more and more each time I pray that they stop coming. I am having a cough an i just hope it wont cause me a sore throat. Thank you so much for your concern, have a nice day!

I'm sorry to hear that zelmarq. But I think the best way is, try to sniff hot water, but do not too long. And drink warm water occasionally. Then you must consum fruits and don't lazy to get some food, healthy food of course. contained Vit. C. That's from me. Get health soon, zelmarq!

Sometimes pepper makes me sneeze especially if it gets into my nose. Those saline nasal sprays are suppose to be good for clearing the sinuses. My husband says that Zicam works to reduce the length of a cold. If its allergies there are several good allergy meds you can buy over the counter now. Zyrtec and Claritin are really good.

Take it easy, get as much water in you as possible, also chicken soup will help. You can also drink some hot lemon with a touch of cayenne pepper, and honey. Make sure you keep warm and maybe you should stay home rather than go to work. You do not want to give everyone else your cold.

Yes, im taking the advice from almost all the mylotters here and im taking it one glass at an hour. Yesterday i was so desperate I took several glasses in just the same hour. Im getting good results and Im enjoying the thrill of the water therapy. Thank you for your concern and have a nice day ahead of you.

Apart from taking proper medicine as per your symptoms, you gargle with salt water two times a day and you may get relief and the cold will not aggravate.

You have to take in lots of warm tea, soup, and juices, Zelmarq. I just got over a horrific cold -the worst I've had in years. They are rampant here in the area where I live now. Remember also to get plenty of rest, take aspirin or Tylenol for aches, pains, and fever. Hope you feel better soon.

i am sorry for your ill health. my advice as a non doctor is to take purgative, i mean purge yourself. trigers of cough, catarr and sneezing are as a result of filty stomach. just empty your bowels and take some fruits juice, fresh fruits and you will be well. quick recovery.

I know how it feels and many times I sneeze 15 minutes in a row when I come back home on a cold day. If I have throat ache I prepare myself with medication because I know that only a hot tea (that hepls) won't be really efficient without medication. Flu and cold is something I fear too.

Its really humiliating, i went to the grocery this morning and I sneezed again for seven times. I guess that was because of the dust in the area.

Dear, Please take care of your health. Kindly note that it is not advisable to take cucumber during cold climatic conditions. Cucumber has a general tendency to increase sneezing & cold. It would be advisable for you to take some allergic tablets to stop this sneezing problem.

Thats what I have not remembered about; there are allergens that may have caused this. Thank you for reminding me.

I usually take chicken soup or hot tea whenever I feel sick. Sneezing, cold, headache, anything light like that. If it doesn't help I will take medicine or go to the doctor.

I have the same experience for almost a week already.I guess its because of the weather. But i started to feel better when i jogged for 30 mins and joined the taebo for another 30 mins last night. Exercise does really boosts our immune system.

sorry to hear about that... hope you are feeling slightly better now. i guess whether it will escalate into a full blown cold depends on whether it si a viral infection. if it is, then no amount of rest or water can stave it off. i have not heard of this concoction of cucumber. is it to eat, or to blend together and drinnk? interesting!

Ecehnacia is really good. Get the tiniture, and knock it back in a little water. It tastes horrible, so treat it like vodka.

Hi, Zelmarq! I used to get sick a lot, too, before I started taking a high anti-oxident vitamin. You have to be careful to make sure the vitamin you choose will dissolve in water within 30 minutes, otherwise it's just passing right through you. I take Arbonne International's Hybrid Power Packs, and for an extra boost to my immunity, I take Get Well Soon from Arbonne whenever I feel I might be coming down with something. I haven't been sick in 2 years, and neither have my husband or two young sons. If you want to check them out, you can go to www.youthfountain.myarbonne.com Feel better!
