Have you been to the doctor dear? Also, I know when I have a bad cough or am really congested I love a hot shower. On the same "Vicks" note, I also use these delightful homemade shower tablets. They don't take very long to make and I'm always glad I have them when I'm feeling poorly. You just throw them into the shower and they melt while you're in there mixing the menthol in with the steam.

Ingredients
1 cup of cornstarch
5 table spoons of Vicks (Can use baby Vicks for a more gentle smell)
½ cup of Baking Soda
Add a teaspoon of water as your see fit. (I did 3)
Mold tray (ice cube, chocolate)
Instructions

To Make the Shower Tablets
Place corn starch in a bowl, add the Vicks and mix it around until well combined. (This will be strong smelling so maybe wear gloves if your sensitive or open a window.)
Now add the baking soda and mix well. (IF you find you need more moisture add a tsp at a time use care not to over do it though,or tablets won't form right.)
Put the mixture into your ice cube tray to other molding tray, and freeze it for a few hours.
Take out and pop out of the molds.
Store the homemade Vicks Shower Tablets in small airtight jars

Thanks meech - looks a bit too much like cooking for me though!!
No not been to docs - think its the sort of thing that just has to run its course. I'm dosing myself up with paracetamol etc but not feeling too bad in myself except for being tired all the time, good job I'm on holidays and can just nod off on the sofa when I feel like it. There' s a lot of it about at the moment - not had many really cold spells to kill off the bugs.

food for thought... why do people believe that aliens traveled to earth then crashed?!!
