How are you feeling I hope better. Well after a few of those hot toddy's I don't think you will care lol j/k . . . One of the reasons there is honey in it is because it is medicinal. Just make sure you use raw honey. Best kind.

[capt_noonie]

I don't know if its raw. But its in a bear bottle. Lol like that helps almost all of them are.

[DvlshAngel985]

The raw ones usually come in a glass jar and sometimes have pieces of honeycomb in them. I find them to be not as sweet as the bear kind.

[capt_noonie]

oh yeah I have seen those. Oh well, next time I guess. I am finishing up my second tottie and heating up some soup. Next is bed time. Wish me luck YTers.

Another good honey thing is if you have pollen allergies find honey made in your area so it is made with local pollen and by eating a spoonful a day you built up pollen tolorence so less sinus problems

Went to Dr today cuz my chest is so tight, my legs still hurt, I'm sore from coughing...turns out I'm magnesium, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12 and Potassium deficient...rx for vitamins, steroids, zpack and codeine/Tylenol cough syrup....however; he told me that if I have the Hot Toddy, no cough syrup.

My recommendation: run now and get Chloraseptic, use it. My ex swears by it and use to make me do it at the first sign of a sore throat...I didn't use it this time...I've learned my lesson...but he doesn't need to know....

I honestly truly pray that you don't get what I have and whats going around here with everyone....its awful...

btw: Hot Toddy's really, really, really, to help you to sleep and cures the throat issue....! I just can decide if I like it better with Brandy or BV...hmmmm

Did you get B12 pills or shots? I have issues with my B12 and since the body does not absorb B12 in pill form I have to get weekly B12 shots BLAH I hate needles!!

[chachi]

Tis the season to get sick definitely/ My daughter and I were both sick with terrible sinus infections for about two weeks going into christmas and I had to just go on i work in retail and it was crazy busy and stunk the big one. I hope your better soon

[Shelby&Seymour]

I will feel sorry for you.... and here is hoping that you feel better soon!!! I will drink the hot toddy, with bourbon, for ya!

Raw is usually better. We have a family down the street that sells it. . So we get fresh, raw, and local!

Many doctors treat local allergies with a bit of local honey! I don't have the allergies but just in case I only buy local honey.

Just seeing this thread and hope that you are feeling better by now and not getting sicker. Go to the doctor if it hangs on and you already haven't.

Capt'n, it aint no fun that's for sure! I'm going on day 5 with it and I missed work yesterday because of it. Sinus pressure so bad my teeth hurt...

[capt_noonie]

Ugh now on top of it all, I got my period too! so now not only do my joints ache, my head hurts, my throat sore, my hands tingling, now I have cramps to go along with it!

However the hot toddys did seem to help. Too bad I can't be drinking them all day.
