Chaps and chapettes,
I've been feeling pretty second hand today, achey back, rough throat, general fatigue - textbook signs of a cold I reckon. So I've cancelled my planned revelry just in case. However, Tuesday and Thursday next week I've got some pretty hefty professional exams and don't want to be sick for them (studying all weekend).
Any suggestions for fighting back before it starts? Dram of brandy/whiskey/port? Hot showers? Lots of sleep? Lots of liquid? Caffeine? What do you lot do at the first sign? I'd rather avoid cold and flu meds as they just stop the symptoms.
Technically not a medical thread
Cheers!
