Been fighting a nasty cold for over a month now. Just when I get to feeling better, it comes and hits me again. Doctor gave me a prescription, didn't do any good, tried Robotussin, Mucinex, the usual, no relief. Friend showed up with some Carolina mountian medicine, key ingredient being corn, going to try it and see if it helps. Waiting for the horehound drops to dissolve, add a spoon of honey, some lemon and see what happens. I'll report with results.

That stuff will make a new man out of you. Use enough of it and even your closest friends won't know you!

Let us know how you are.

Gunny,

That sounds a lot like the Irish cure for what ails you. Except we used "Poteen" instead of Moonshine and added some crushed cloves and a little boiling milk.

Moonshine? Whats that?

Well it had an effect but not the desired one. Ended up back at the doctor's office. No, not because of the self medication. Got some antibiotics and I feel a lot better today than a couple of days ago.

Gunny,
I try to use as many homeopathic remedies as possible. One that does work very well for lots of things as it kills bacteria, viruses and fungus. It is Oil of Oregano. You can buy at a health food store. If you can, buy it in capsule form. If you cannot find it in capsule form buy it in small container that has an eye dropper. Then buy your own empty capsules and put about three drops in each capsule. Take 1-2 capsules in the AM, noon, and evening. If you have the fortitude you can put 1-2 drops under your tongue. It is very powerful and potent. Very warm-hot that way.
