I feel so bad.

[Lady Freedom Returns]

It's a cold,but due to my Multiple Sclerosis medication it's hitting me like it's on steroids.

It's hard to sleep, my stomach is iffy and my nose won't stop.

I have no idea how I got it. I have kept away from people. And I wear a mask to go out the door.

Not much for me to do about it. How long does a cold last regularly?

1. Sorry you feel bad.

1 week

[Tetrachloride]

2. My recent illness was close to a week. In the past, 10-14 days

I keep away from children in closed in places.

Gargle with very diluted peroxide to help with post nasal drip.

Ibuprofen or something for fever and aches and pains.

Mint tea.

3. Might be allergies

A friend has the same symptoms and is taking Zyrtec.

4. Nope it's a cold.

Went to the doctor to find out. I was scared it was.....Covid .

5. My doctor says properly treated a cold will last seven days...

Untreated it could take a whole week.

9. Wow.

"Properly treated seven days, untreated a whole week."

64 years old and always have been taught 7 days in a "whole" week.

6. I hope it's not the flu, I was diagnosed with the flu ("Type A") and it's hanging on

And I got my flu shot - and still regularly wear a mask in public.

7. Doctor says it's a cold.

But I have to take medication to dampen my immune systems. It's worse than a regular Cold.

8. Stay hydrated. Chicken soup. Vitamin C and D. Take zinc. Rest. Most important,

stay hydrated.
Wish I could do more.

[Lady Freedom Returns]

10. I will.

Bad part is I think Sunny has caught it! Got to call his vet tomorrow.
