I need a remedy!

Apr 29, 2009 11:50

I'm SICK, again! This sucks, especially since I got into the Tufts Adventures in Veterinary Medicine program and it's next week.

This is serious, people. I NEED to get better by this weekend. I've been taking Zicam (both the nose gel stuff and the liquid but I just ran out of the liquid) and drinking OJ and taking some vitamin C.

health, vet

I always take straight up Zinc tablets. And get loooooots of sleep. I hope you feel better soon!

I know, I stayed up way too late last night. I really have to make up for it tonight and tomorrow! Which sucks because I have to study for a test on Friday, but I really just have to try to get to bed early.

Zinc tablets, eh? I should probably run out today and get some of those.

Keep doing what you're doing with Zicam and Vitamin C and rest rest rest!!

Sleep cures practically everything.

Wow, that's awesome about the Vet thing. Go you!!!!

I would definitely say that vitamins, rest, and lots of fluids can help. And if nothing helps the cold go away, I like to medicate with Sudafed and Tylenol. At least if you're taking Sudafed you won't be sniffling all over the place (until it wears off, that is).

If it doesn't go away I'll need to do SOMETHING! I may have to run out and get Sudafed. I sound ridiculous (scratchy throat) and I'm all stuffed up and keep blowing my nose. They'll totally know I'm sick and might not let me play with the animals! Poo.

just kidding. SLEEEEEEEP is the magical cure for colds. plus lots of fluids, vitamins, and hand-washing.

I was joking with Tiff that maybe I have swine flu. Come to think of it, I WAS just in Mexico a week ago. Wait, no I wasn't. Yay!

I just bough some stress formula vitamins that have zinc in them. I hope they help! And I'm going to TRY to get more sleep. It's hard though since I have a test on Friday. In fact, why the hell am I checking my email??

I'll try! I want to play with the animals! :)
