It’s about time my body caught up with my crazy and hectic lifestyle. I won’t discuss the specifics of that to save my breath. Needless to say, though, I am SICK.

I have a sore throat, I’m extremely exhausted (though I’ll suck it up when I’m around people because no one likes a downer), I’m on and off congested and can’t breathe, and as to not get so graphical with my could-be illness, let’s just say I’m sick and feel like crap.

However, unless I’m absolutely dying, I will come to work. That’s right. I’m one of those that gets everyone else in the office sick. Misery loves company, right? I’d like to believe I’m just dedicated though. I have my own goals and if I allow myself to lounge around at home in my PJs, you can bet I’m not going to be productive. Anyways, looking for a quick fix, I turned to Theraflu.

Theraflu works wonders.
I drank the Theraflu tea as soon as I got home from work. About an hour later, I felt a whole lot better.

Pros: It’s a quick fix. It doesn’t cure everything but it makes you feel a whole lot better. It comes in many different flavors (I tried the lemon one) and many different varieties from capsules to teas. I went for the tea because it seemed the least medicinal. I hate taking medicine! Also, it didn’t make me drowsy, bloated, or any of those other nasty things other medicines make you feel after taking it.

Cons: OMG, it tastes so nasty. The tea does NOT go down easy. It tastes like you’re drinking a whole cup of medicine and it leaves an after taste in your mouth! EWWW! Maybe it works because you have to drink three cups of water to every cup of tea you drink. That’s a lot of liquid that would for sure flush out whatever it is you have. Maybe the capsules would have been a better way to go… or maybe the lemon flavor was just not tasty at all.

Does Theraflu work? Well, I’m at work, and not at home sleeping and I feel decent enough to be writing a post about it’s seeming-to-be success. I’ll post if I take a turn the other way. But for now, I give it my thumbs up.
