I had a really awful cough 2wks ago and I got some menthol crystals from the chemist put a few in a bowl of hot water and sat with a towel over my head for 10mins it certainly calmed the cough down for a few hours I had to get up in the middle of the night to do it again as it was so bad.. I feel for you.

Horrid virus this, my DS has been awful, she has been drinking honey and lemon with a bit of ginger in hot water with a couple of paracetamol. Hope it soon eases for you.

It's horrid I know. I do hope that there is someone there to get to a chemist and get something for you to ease you symptoms. Take it easy.

It started Tuesday I coughed so much I'm in pain now every time I cough around my ribs. I feel washed out due to little sleep and the sickness. Generally I try to fight on but this time I've just sunk on the sofa. Wondering which is the best way forward to aid recovery.
