i have a cold and i feel terrible?

Question: one minute i'm hot and the next i'm shivering. i have a 4 year old at school and a 15 month at home so i can't go to bed. I've taken paracetamol, eaten chicken soup and had a glass of brandy (which has left me feeling tipsy). any other practical advice??

Answers:
If you can get to the store try getting some zinc lozenges and take large doses of vitamin C. The C helps support/boost your immune system and zinc has been shown to help shorten the duration of a cold.

Other than that try a vaporizer and just keeping yourself as comfortable as possible. If you have or can get essential oils a few drops of lavendar and eucalyptus in a hot tub later will help you relax and help you breathe better.

Feel better!
