Its the type where you can't sleep at all because your nose is so stuffy, you are oversalivating big time, you are vomiting 1 to 3 times a day, and your entire body aches just sitting there.
I have gotten about an hour or so of sleep in the past three days, fever up to 102.7, my latest vomiting thing produced a nosebleed. I have an assignment due tomorrow but i haven't finished it yet because i've been sick. My parents refuse to get me Ivermectin despite being redpilled, and I'm taking a regimen of Codeine, DayQuil, NyQuil, nasal spray, salt water, ice chips, etc. Hardly any of it is really helpful.
For some reason I am coughing really really hard, much harder than anyone coughs. It hasn't physically bruised my throat yet, but I'm worried that it might. MY stepmom, who is a nurse, finally thought to look at my throat today, where my Uvula is about twice as large as normal. Despite taking all sorts of medications to help me fall asleep, my mind, like any anon's, is always running, and when I get sick its literally impossible to turn it down so i can sleep.
Anyone have other home remedies to feel better? Hot tea, even chicken noodle soup, is ineffective on the uvuala's swelling. I'm coughing so hard i can bring myself to gag in about 6 consecutive coughs. Certain vomiting with 7.
Make a solution of boiled (i.e. no chlorine) water, or filtered water if you have it, about 8 oz to 1 flat teaspoon of salt. Plain salt, not iodized, sea salt if you have it. To this 8 oz add .8 oz of 10% betadine: makes a 1% solution. Your stepmom should have learned how to make proportionate solutions in nursing school. Use a neti pot or bulb syringe and wash your nose with this twice a day, tip your head back so it drips down on the upper back of your throat, then gargle with it.
Ditch all the quils. Warm chicken soup is OK. Or warm chicken broth with tomato juice. Any juice you crave. Try Pepto-Bismol. It could help with both nausea and headache
