Hi, guys. I've had a nagging cold and pretty bad sore throat (accompanied with nasal congestion/discharge) for a week now. Boaz has be on a "cold protocol," but this bug doesn't seem to be letting up at all. The worst part is the sore throat and cough, and feeling like I don't have anything to relieve it with (no cough drops, cough syrup obviously). I've tried gargling with salt water and goldenseal, but it doesn't seem to help that much. At this point, I'm afraid | might need to go to my regular doctor to at least get checked out for strep.
