I just got over a sore mild sore throat that lasted about a week. I had no other symtoms besides a little flem a some coughing only when I laid down to go to bed. The funny thing about the sore thoat is that it was at its worse in the morning (but even then not to bad and seemed to go completly away in the afternoon and then repeated this for about a week. Is this a cold?

that's funny, that's exactly what i'm going through. i looked in a mirror and saw some bumps on the back of my throat, too. i can hardly talk, and because i'm a teacher, i could die of poverty if this persists! let me know if you have any news.

right now i'm just avoiding dairy, drinking lots of water, and taking an anti-viral herbal drink (which is pretty mild). i don't want to be on vacation here, but as i have to talk to give classes, i'm pretty much stuck at home--feverless, snot-less, flu-less, but voiceless.

Try echanacea ..You can buy at your local drugstore for about 5 bucks~
You take 3 pills a day..spaced out over the course of the day~and lots of water~

After the second or third day...You should feel some relief...I usually take it about a week and that does the trick~
Hope you guys feel better soon~
