Full of cold

First week back at school and already the pesky children have given me a cold and a cough! Can anyone recommend anything that I can have to ease it? I’m on day 4 of using Menopur.

Thanks 🤗 x

Hi there, it’s typical isn’t it?! I’m pretty sure that you are ok taking any paracetamol based products. Hope you feel better soon 💕 xx

So typical! Have tried not taking anything all weekend as wasn’t sure and don’t want it to interfere with the meds but need something for my cough!! I will have a look in the cupboard for something with paracetamol in! Thanks xx

Ah bless! I hurt my ankle whilst taking stimms and the pharmacist said that I was ok to take paracetamol for the pain. I’ve also been advised that I can only use paracetamol during the 2ww. Go dose up! 💕 xx

I normally chop some ginger root, pour some hot water and add some lemon juice and turmeric. And lots of vitamin C. I’m obviously not sure if this would interfere in any way with Menopur. I hope you feel better soon x

There is significantly more vitamin c in a red pepper. Fun fact. Maybe make yourself some dipping sticks with hummus. Hope you feel soon. xxx

Apparently you should add some cold water to Ribena before the hot water to retain as much vitamin c as possible. Could be an old wives tale mind. 🤣 x

Whoops missed off the C....vitamin C!
