I take 1000Mg a day all the time. Plus all the C I get from juices etc, prolly about 2K a day.
Thanks dear, it's good advice. 🙂

Well, sorry about that, I guess it got the best of you.

At least the weather hasn't turned cold yet. Maybe you can call in sick to work tomorrow and lay out to get a tan?

Me? I seldom call in. I haven't done that ever at this job in 6+ years. If I can breathe, I go to work. 🙂 I only work 3-4 hours a day anyway, so it's like not working most of the time. 😕

Is getting drunk your answer for everything?
Wait, I know the answer to that, nevermind. 😛

1ltr tonic water. 1 ltr Orange juice. Mix & down both for breakfast. Once you've been to the toilet half a dozen times, you'll feel great.
OH, & STAY OFF THE COORS!

I disagree. According to some dutch site the adviced dayly amount of Vitamin C that you should consume is 70 mg a day (for males aged 19-50).
All that other 930 mg that you take gets filtered out by your kidneys and end up in your pee.

Taking vitamins is not a bad advice tho, you can possibly need some more when you are sick. But Id advie you to eat fruit in stead of supplements.

Also, the brain is a powerfull thing. Ignore the cold and it goes away (works for me anyway).

Good luck Ice
(look the "Cold" already left!;o )

Get out of the house. Go somewhere public like a shopping mall of subway car. Sneeze a lot. Spread the love. You'll be feeling better in no time.

Plenty of fluids. I mean plenty. Drink even if you're not thirsty. Getting even slightly dehydrated makes all your other symptoms feel worse.

btw, I mean non-alcoholic fluids.
