When I get sick it feels like I get everything. And it can take me up to a month to recover. Scientists can send people into space, but can't cure a cold or flu?
I gave up on cough syrup because I can't keep it down. Throat lozenges upset my stomach. Often I stop eating for about 3 weeks. And don't drink for about 5 days. And don't sleep for about a month. It's like boot camp

I'm the same way and my doctor told me that cough syrup was a waste of money unless it was Musenex since it actually breaks up that junk in your chest. Dont get me started on what or why they cant cure certain things.
Its a money maker. Go to the drugstore and spend $50 on assorted pills and tissues every time I'm sick.
