It is what has been known for generations as the common cold. It is caused by a virus, which no doctor can prescribe anything for.

What you can do to help your body fight the virus:

Drink plenty of clear liquids, - water is first choice. NO sodas or artificially sweetened drinks as they also make the body work harder. (sugar overdose is usually what causes the onset of illness) 100% fruit juices are good, broth made from hot water and bouillon. Tea - ginger, mullein, peppermint and lemon are good choices, sweetened with honey. Honey also helps your body's immune system.

Add 1 tsp apple cider vinegar to a glass of 100% apple juice a day.

Take 500 mg of Vit C 2 x a day. (or get some Emergen C and take that a couple packets a day at separate times)

Add Garlic to your day, a garlic spread is easy to make with 1 tablespoon butter and 1 clove garlic, crushed into the butter.

For the sore throat - Grapefruit Seed Extract liquid - 10 drops in 6 oz of water. Gargle, swallow. You can chase with a strongly flavored juice since it doesn't taste that great.

No refined sugars - desserts, sodas, etc., are out until you feel better. Not even if sweetened with artificial sweeteners - which are hard on the kidneys.

Chicken soup really does work well. It is best homemade with ginger, garlic, thyme and sage. They are all healing herbs.

Make sure you get plenty of rest.

flu

You most likely have the flu and there is no cure for it but you can treat the symptoms. There are multiple cold/flu pills that you can take. Any one of them will help tone down the symptoms so you can rest. Drink fluids. Just wait it out.

Sounds like a terrible Flu going around and if you really want to know ask your local pharmacist and ask if there have been alot of sick people in your area..Then ask what to take.
Good Luck

go to the doctor, sounds like the flu, it's going around.

You've got a cold. Take some painkillers, drink lots of water, go to bed for a while, don't panic.
