Well staying in bed is good. Drinking lots of fluids. Getting in warm soft foods (soup, anyone?) usually helps me. Don't forget to take some naps. Sleep helps my body recover. If that doesn't help..."Hello, Nyquil!"

Make sure you gargle with very warm salt water at least times a day. Also, if you have a humidifier put that on 24/7 in your bedroom. It really does help to keep your sinus's moist and makes it easier to breath. Open the window a crack to get some fresh air and wash your hands a lot. Feel better soon!!

I'm similar I can't seem to kick things, I try and add either some orange juice (it's the only time I allow juice) or an orange, soup (but not cream based), spray the throat numbing stuff, gargel salt water (it is nasty but helps), if you are coughing lots of cough syrup that has an explerant in it and on that not I agree with the nyquill at night, try and sleep sitting up if you are having trouble breathing. Lastly lost of rest!!!

Feel better!

for your throat -- GOLDENSEAL. It's a liquid, you do like 15-30 drops in warm/hot water, drink, and it almost instantly works. You use it several times a day. It's incredible.
