I have never posted on here, so i hope you guys get this!! I dont know weather or not you guys have healed yet but here is what i do. Right when i feel my throat getting sore i get some Grapefruit seed extract, it acts as a great anti-bacteria i put 10-15 drops in a cup with water or orange juice before i go to bed and i gargal it for about 2 minutes then swallow i go to bed and 90% of the time when i wake up the sore throat is gone!!! If not then i put 15 drops in a quart of water and drink about 3 of them throughout the day and normally by the end of the day my sore throat is gone. You can also take Oreagano oil concentrate a few drops under tongue works great along with garlic pills. Stay away from milks while your sick though and no Zannix while take grapefruit seed extract. I hope it helps
