[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2175232, member: 355878"] Oh yes - I remember recommending a menthol steam inhalation session to someone with those symptoms, and apparently the results were really spectacular. They were sitting at the kitchen table when it started, and their partner just made it to the downstairs loo before throwing up their dinner..... When I worked in the tax office I was told in no uncertain terms to come into work when I called on Monday morning to say I had the 'flu' - rather than risk disciplinary action, and it had started the previous Thursday, I went into the office, which was open plan, and very smoky with no ventilation. The following week the entire floor was deserted except for me, everyone was down with the 'flu' - some of the older clerks were very seriously ill and one of them didn't come back to work. I forget which 'flu' epidemic it was - it was the early 1970s. Although it might seem very virtuous going into work wven when you are ill - it can mean that you pass on the infection to all those you come into contact. [/QUOTE]
