try flavored zinc lozenges, wipes out colds real quick! I find heating apple or cranberry juice with some lemon squeezed in it , and maybe some fresh ginger very comforting also.

Subject: YUCK.....A SUMMER COLD!

Hello List family,

I am suffering from a horrible summer cold. I have had it for 3 days. Having pd for 20 yrs and still not quite able to get a handle on colds or flus, I am finding myself frustrated with these yucky symptoms. Would somebody out there give suggestions of how they treat their colds? I would so appreciate it. I believe my greatest concern is keeping this stuff from going to my lungs. I was running a fever; but it broke yesterday. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Sandra Norris
