Poor you, sounds like you might have picked up your daughters bug. You can get similar symptoms after stopping the cigs, not sure if they're as intense as yours sound though.

I've been lucky enough not to have had a cold (or bird flu ) since I started vaping full time. Although I had a few days when I had a really sore throat and thought I was going to succumb.
Vaping was really rough on my throat from both the nicotine and flavouring, felt as though I was inhaling razorblades! I found that watering my usual juice down in my tank with a plain, no nic 50/50 PG/VG mix helped a lot. Hubby is just getting over a cold (only had it for a week this time!) and I diluted his too, he found it helped. I doubt you've got any supplies so I'd be more than happy to send you some if you'd like to give it a try? Just PM me

Aww bless you - what a sweet thought. Actually my supplies are a bottle of menthol at 6mg nicotine (70/30 PG/VG) which is ok and not too harsh on the old throat. I'm not really using the kit though. Mostly too busy with RIDICULOUSLY loud sneezes (poor cat runs a mile), boxes of tissues and general moaning how ill I feel. My daughter has already said that she got through it without so much as a whimper, and she was the lead in her school play this week, so could I please 'grow up and get on with it'. That's me told then

It may be your idea of hell but I am a Big believer in garlic, put it in and on everything savoury you eat.
Also onions, boil up a great big pan of them add gravy or even garlic and scoff the lot.
For the sweeter meals and drinks, honey, on bread , crackers, cereal, in yoghurt in your tea/ coffee .
Honey/ Garlic and Onions better than any medicine

Big believer in garlic,goes in all my cooking ...yes i cook lol but being half greek and proud of it suppose i would love the stuff

[charliebrown]

Lol.......kids, don't you just love 'em

I have to admit though, I'm not terribly sympathetic when hubby's ill, I know he'll happily milk it given the chance, bless him

[wolfvape]

I'm a massive believer in garlic and chilli. In fact tonight's plat du jour is spaghetti with heaps of both to blitz the bug from the inside. Good thing there is no-one to kiss at the moment...!! And I do think that honey and lemon in hot water is better than anything you can buy in a pharmacy.

Get well soon wolfvape

[wolfvape]

Thanks aliscampbell. Day two of roughness therefore I must be better tomorrow!

[Gully]

I hope you are feeling better soon wolfvape. Mrs Gully has gone down with this bug, it sure gets around.

[wolfvape]

Gully Well, whoever decided this was a sharing bug has a lot to answer for! Hope Mrs Gully feels better soon.

[Deleted]

I had it for a week wolfvape

Other remedies are honey, lemon and ginger tea (grate the ginger, get the lemon juice, add hot water, steep)

Really I'd bop your daughter with a wooden spoon....teenagers LOL

[Chrissie]

Hope you are soon feeling better wolfvape

[charon]

wolfvape do hope you recover soon.

BTW, are you just feeling rotten or actually being sick (specifically in th AM)

[wolfvape]

Thanks again all. Still feeling crap, temperature lower though. Quiet day on the sofa for me.

[Clivia]

get well soon - and don't forget the whiskey and the honey
