I’m just curious what works for others when he/she has a cold. Some people swear by what works for them. It doesn’t matter if it’s alternative medicine, homemade/ family remedy; it can be anything that has helped you. Would anyone like to share what has helped them?

It takes me about three hours to fall asleep, and I wake up spontaneously during the night. So I took half of a Unisom sleeping pill last night at about midnight, and I slept hard for twelve hours, right through my alarm. I still feel sleepy, like I could sleep for a whole day. That was the first time I’d ever used sleeping medication, so I’m wondering if this extreme effect will lessen if I continue to use it.
Also, I’d like to know if there’s a natural, healthy alternative to sleeping pills that won’t “knock me out” like this.
Thanks everyone!

I felt sick to my stomach Friday afternoon. I thought I hadn’t gotten enough sleep and had gotten to hot. Well my stomach got really bloated and the next day I had diarrhea everytime I turned around. I am having bad abdominal cramping around my belly button. I have IBS and it hurts me to take stuff like imodium so i am looking for some other alternatives without having to go to the doctor. There is a stomach bug going around so i don’t htink this is something serious. I just want to feel better.
