There isn't a cure for that yet, all you can do is wait.

Yup - unfortunately.

I find though if I can, I take nothing when I have a cold. Just eat and drink right and get as much sleep as I can. I've found it usually goes through your body faster that way and you recover earlier. The cold remedies just subdue the symptoms, and you're getting those symptoms because that's how your body needs to fight it.

I only take something to unstuff me (like Neo-Citron, Reactine, etc.) if I have a meeting or something important on that day that I really need to be "better" for.

Good luck - hope you're feeling better soon. I'm just getting over a cold myself! :rolleyes:

I know what cures it. Sitting there and bitching. That's what I do, and it seems to go away eventually :)

You cant. A cold is a virus, not a bacteria. BUT you can relieve the symptoms so pop some cold medicine and such.

:lol: Wanna cure the cold? Here's the truth to be told. You gotta hold in that sneeze and grab on to your Knees. Now blow out your nose like a fire house hose. Don't aim at your dog or that poor hound will sog, with what's blown towards his snoot, a load of green poot. Blow towards the roof, your nose full of poof,and alls well that ends well. Thank you. :lol:

I think for the most part all it takes is time, but try drinking lots of juice and some hot drinks like tea. Have you tried the NeoCitran drink. I think it's supposed to relieve symptoms. But, still the only thing that will really work is time. I hope you have a speedy recovery. Colds suck.
