I've been purposefully trying to flu up over the past few days with no such luck. I just want a few days off work. My immune system used to be so weak when I was in my teens I was always the first one to come down with man flu, but these days I can't catch anything! I haven't had a day off (genuinely) sick for over two years!

Echinchea capsules. You get them from Boots and similar places. Absolute wonder drug, better than any other cold remedy. Get it down you early tho as once it develops, your fucked!!!

Sorry but Echincea is nothing more than a placebo, its all in your head mate. There is no wonder cure for colds and flu, you just have to sit it out, drink plenty of fluids, eat sensibly and no wanking for 10 days. Next patient please!

enchinacea might cut your chances of getting the cold in the first place, but will do nothing if you already have the infection.it boosts the immune system apparantly.

Less of the man flu. My Mrs says all I have is a snuffle and a tickly cough. She's going to look pretty stupid when she realises it's  Zaire variant Ebola. I'll probably be dead by the time Fitton appoints the new man. But I still came work today.

So in answer to your question - take some Lemsip and let the cold run it's course. Better getting it out the way now than have it at Christmas.

Just tell her that most of PMS is psychological and it isn't that bad.
