Home remedies for the Flu
« on: November 10, 2009, 05:15:18 PM »
What are your home remedies for the FLU?  I've been bedridden here for the last three days with a nasty case of the FLU, chills, fever, body aches, water pouring out the backside. 

I don't particularly like seeing doctors here as they tend to over prescribe medication.  My home remedy is plenty of liquids, aspirin (not tylenol), vitamin C, and my trust laptop by my side.  I'd be interested in what other people's home remedies might be.

Whisky, by the bottle, works fine for me, apart from the headaches that is :)

Ha. Nice remedy. I very rarely get headaches.  What, DD?  No soapy massage?  ;)

Actually I haven't had flu or a cold for over 15 years, last thing I had wrong with me that wasn't self inflicted was a tooth ache about 12 years ago, I took 2 paracetamol for that.
