Just got over a cold. A bad cold. It’s the first one I’ve had in well over a decade. I use hand sanitizers and wipes like they are going out of style so I don’t have any idea how I caught it. I carry bottles of 70% alcohol in my pockets; also in the car and even change gloves frequently to lessen the chances of contamination. I wash my hands many, many times a day and clean every shopping cart handle at least twice. Yes, I am a germ-o-phobe. So how did I get this virus? I’m not around lots of people very often. It might have been on a package that was brought to my shop .. maybe on the daily mail .. but viruses don’t last that long on those kinds of surfaces. More than likely somewhere while out and about … Who knows?
It bothered me for about seventeen days and then one morning it was just noticeably better. Sometimes it felt like bronchitis, then that cleared up and it felt like sinus infection. All of a sudden it’s back down in my chest, again. I gave this virus the name “The Crud” because that’s what it was .. always moving around. I kept working every day and treated it with hot tea and honey. Push fluids .. as long as you don’t dehydrate it’ll run it’s course and subside. Cold viruses just take time.

If it ever moves to the throat, gargling relentlessly with extremely salted water has always helped. Head way back, and a slow gargle so that it really gets down in there.

"It seems like there's times a body gets struck down so low, there ain't a power on earth that can ever bring him up again. Seems like something inside dies so he don't even want to get up again. But he does."

Sounds like you’re hitting that cold hard Hitman!

Your list of natural remedies is great, maybe add some echinacea?

Also, that slow gargling with very salty warm water is an outstanding suggestion, it works when nothing else seems to!

I use a commercial product called Wellness Formula. It kills a cold or flu in a few days.

I also do all the obvious things about getting lots of rest, taking my vitamins, good nutrition, and so on.
