AAARRGGGHH I woke up with a sore throat today now too! Sometimes a sore throat never develops into anything for me, but sometimes it turns into a nightmare.....crap.

Funny HP, I was reading this thread and see that you have an egg phobia too...LOL. I HATE the thought of raw eggs PERIOD!

Well I think my remedy today is gonna be: chop my head off starting at the throat! Not only does my throat hurt like a mother but I have a serious "time of the month headache". Great combo.

Ok here is another remedy that I made up on my own and it seemed to work

Put into a pot....

2 cloves of crushed garlic
1 root of crushed ginger (JAMAICAN GINGER IS STRONGEST IN FLAVOR)
4 lemon slices+ the juice of 1/2 lemon
1 lime
sweeten with honey

Drink it down while hot helps with soar throat

echinacea and vitamin C..if u feel ur throat itching, take two echinacea in the morning, pop vitamin C chewables every couple hrs, then take two more echinacea at night...works like a charm for me for yrs now.
