Some practical ideas: before bed try tea (decaffeinated if sensitive) with honey and a shot of whiskey or brandy; warmed ginger ale with a little lemon and southern comfort; chicken noodle soup - some studies have shown it really DOES work.

Blueash is correct in all he said. This year's flu vaccine has missed what appears to be going around - its a H3 virus thats hitting everywhere. Avoid crowds and people who are ill, wash your hands frequently and keep your fingers crossed you are not exposed.
