how to get rid of the flu?
 

I've had this for 5 days now and it's becoming a major annoyance as i'm falling behind in work. Any tips?

I'm on day 4 myself :(

Those Gel Pills

:thumbsup

Water + Sleep

i've had more sleep and water in the last 5 days than I normally get in a month lol :(

Those gell pills would prolly be Nyquil night time, or day time.

Personally, I take zinc and tons of water.
Followed by nyquil gel tabs, and swigs of nyquil liquid when I wake up. A day or two of this ussually leaves me fine or in working condition.

Bleach.

what would a thread on gfy be without one idiots reply, thanks buddy!

Go buy Vitamin C tablets and drink loads of hot tea with honey.

crack smoking is good as well

sleep more and drink a lot of water!

Drink lots of honey & lemon



:)

I take 500mg tablets of vitamin C whenever I get sick at all...

i've heard rumors about honey and lemon juice, will have to check into this. thanks.

You're welcome.

But seriously, plenty of vitamin C and zinc.

im on day 8 :(

hookers!!!

1. Sleep Sleep Sleep - let your body fight it out.

2. Drink lots and lots of WATER! Not gatoraid, not iced tea...WATER!

3. pepto for the puking

4. vitamin c before naps/bedtime (let your body fight it with a little help)

5. clean your house/apartment. take out every trash bag, dust everything, wipe door knobs down with lysol, etc etc. Otherwise, you're just gonna stay sick and/or get sick again really soon (and others in your house as well.)

(can ya tell i get the flu every year? :Graucho lol)

cocain

sleep it off - also nyquil - and gallons of OJ

only been drinking water and O.J., cleaned the apartment up today and washing all my sheets and clothes right now. I know this will help. I'll have to sanitize the office tomorrow since I tried forcing myself to work LOL

heres a better question, what's good food to eat when you have the flu? I find it very hard to eat anything at all and I feel not eating only makes it worse. chicken soup wasn't even working...

thanks for the tips :)

if this doesn't get any better i'll have to take the bleach, crack, and cocaine route. that should do the trick

blowing your bains out with a hand gun does the trick

it's crossed my mind more than once :1orglaugh

Nyquil, as much of it as it's possible to consume

5 days. go see a doctor already.

I HAVE HAD THE SHIT FOR 14 FUCKING DAYS - GET PENICILLIN OR SOMETHING!


Please excuse my language

I am having this shitty flu already over a week too, that's just so annoying, trying to sleep a lot and taking some medicine.....

but the weather is so shitty here.....:(


maybe I should take a vacation and go somewhere on the beach....:)

just drink a lot of fruit juice :)

I'm just got the flu today.

Feel terrible. I hope it doesn't last for too long... :(

plenty of rest
lots of water
clean glass each time
wash hands often
clean faucets, handles, ref. handles,
and remote ocntrol
fresh sheets
fresh air
emty trash often
tissues with lotion
hot bubble bath
vitamins
chicken soup
hot tea with peppermint


good luck...

I'm seeing lots of water responses, but not many food. Yes, liquids are essential but you also need to force yourself to eat. You need every bit of energy you can get right now so your body can fight the virus.

Try Jello, pudding, crackers, noodles, soup, bread, applesauce, mashed potatoes. Anything soft and easy to eat, once you find something that you're able to eat you need to keep eating it and adding more food to it.

Eat boy, eat!

A lot of water, vitamin C and Advil might just do the job. And rest!!

Stay in bed, avoid sugar, eat meat and vegetables. Wait one week. You should be fine. Try to get some penicilin the next time. It has always helped me for some reason.

lotsa juice and rest buddy.

thanks everyone, learned a few things in this thread.. yesterday was better but I had an ear infection and a really bad cough.

today I woke up feeling pretty good, just have this cough to deal with which I learned that expectorant cough syrup is the way to go, so i'll be picking that up tonight to try and clear this up before the weekend.

back to work :upsidedow
