Hi all

Just feeling sorry for myself as I have had a cold on and off for about 3 weeks now and its driving me mad. I get really stuffed up and head feels fuzzy for a day or two - then it disappears and I feel reasonably OK - then it comes back again. Bg doesn't seem to be affected too much so I'm pleased about that but what does everyone else do when they get colds.

To help the stuffy head I have been inhaling Olbas oil which helps a bit and making myself lemon and ginger tea which is lovely and warming - have also upped my Vitamin C and zinc supplements.

Any home remedies would be gratefully received.

A cold that goes on so long iosn't right
Have you seen your GP?
As to stuffy nose, try some menthol vapour
