Thanks Muddy, I will try it for the cough as soon as I can keep my blood sugars down. She gave me 3 days of special anti biotics, for the urinary infection, and after taking just one I am amazed how much they have improved the situation.
I could be on lemon and honey before the weekend.

Even better mixed into a tumbler of hot water with a slug of whiskey in it.

Re: How quickly do you notice when you get a cold?

Hope you feel better soon Twinks.

Chemo is a bloody nuisance!
I had it for 8 months. My immune system is now useless.
Now, when I get a cold, instead of it lasting 3-4 days, it will go on for 3-4 weeks. Like you, it comes on really quickly. Fine one minute and feeling like carp the next.

Just one of those things we have to put up with I suppose.
Take it easy gal.....

Hope you are better soon Twink my neighbour who is my age has been in bed for 3 days with a respiratory infection and she is never ill. I think there is something particularly nasty going round.

Re: How quickly do you notice when you get a cold?

Thanks for all the good wishes folks, and fender, your immune system will improve.... just give it some time. My main problem is the diabetes, because if your sugars are a bit high infections thrive on them... so I am fighting a double battle.

Don't play it down Nom. It's Summer Man Flu.
