Do I have a cold? How long is it supposed to last?!


Question: Do I have a cold? How long is it supposed to last?
So I can't tell if I have a cold or the flu. I have an EXTREMELY sore throat, cough, phlegm, stuffy/runny nose, and a fever (though i don't know what temperature i'm at) I've had it since Friday (Feb. 18). I've been taking Nyquil at night, buckleys for the first day, and benelyn from saturday to now, I've also been taking about 2 long hot baths a day and putting on vix twice a day.

What do i have and how much longer will this last? I'm tired of drinking juice and not eating.

if its lasted that long than i sugest seeing a doctor for a better referral but my guess is that its the flu.

A few things that have really helped me out with the same problem are: gargaling salt water for soar throat, Vitamin C tablets, Fish oil (as wierd as that sounds) and SPICY FOOD

hope that helps!!!
