I got it now, but my daughter has it worse. She refuses to blow her nose because she thinks it's gross. Well, now she has a stomach bug too. ...imagine that. I have a pretty strong immune system so it's not very bad with me. I have a slight dry cough every now and again and I'm congested. Other than that, I feel ok. My daughter is down for the count because she won't take care of herself.
Vitamin C, D, and B complex. After that, PLENTY of water.
John. You did time in the military, didn't you? I never heard a civilian call it "creeping crud".
