Okay, I realize the only way to actually get rid of a pesky little cold virus is to rest, drink fluids, and wait it out. What I want to know are the best techniques, medications, herbal remedies, etc. for temporary relief of my symptoms.
My symptoms are a stuffed up/running nose, fatigue, and a minor sore throat. Tomorrow, I have a date! Not only that, but it is the first time I am spending the night at his place! I do not want to cancel, because that has already happened once before and I don’t want him to think I am making excuses!
So what I need is to get rid of my symptoms to have an enjoyable evening, and I would also like to know if there is a way to get rid of my congestion for the entire night so that I do not snore or breath through my mouth and drool, as I tend to do when I am sick. How embarrassing would that be?!
Please help! Let me know your quick fixes, no matter how obvious or bizarre they may be! If it works for you, I wanna know! Thanks!

OK! this is the best thing i’ve ever done but it won’t work in short term… this isn’t for your date tonight but for future reference… take multi-vitamins… every day… you can still catch a cold but believe me, the symptoms are sooooo minimal! also when you do have it bad.. take vitamin C tablets or echinehcea(sp?)

This is what i do. I take Dayquil all day, then when I am ready for bed i drink between 4-6 glasses of OJ, then finally take Nyquil before finally going to sleep.
