Is there any tips/advice on how to make the common cold pass over?
I've got a sore throat, one sure sign that the cold is on it's way and more symptoms will appear.
My friends have had a cold so I know that I'm getting one.
I want the common cold to pass ASAP.

This question is regarding a friend....she was hosptalized because when she peed it burned and she had discharge and bumps on her vagina, she also could not sit down and had a fever because it was too painful. During her time in the hospital she was diagnosed with Herpes and E-coli in her blood stream. Her herpes result was positive. She has been taking Valtrex (I think that's the name of the drug)

She now has tested negative. My concern is that she is having unprotected sex with her current boyfriend and possibly giving him an std.

My question is: Is it possible to still have Herpes (and like Aids) be in remission so to say where it won't show up in ur blood stream? Is it possible, considering the symptoms she was having, that it could've been an allergic reaction to yeast infection cream (which she told me she was taking)? And is it possible for the person that infected her to test negative or for her to have been positive all along and not exhibit symptoms?

For two days, you would eat nothing. You would drink juice only. Then for a week you would drink only water with a few drops of lemon juice.

My father is 60 and today he fell unconscious for a couple of seconds on the bathroom floor after he was nauseated. He's eyes were wide open and when my mother panicked and screamed...he came back to consciousness.
This is the first time this has happened.
Sometimes he sweats around the chin area and he looks like he is not all there. His eye look blurry and he looks very unhappy (almost depressed).
Not known medical conditions except for frequent urination at night. He believes it could be prostate problems....possibly even prostate cancer.
He has been exceptionally physically strong all this life and until recently he jogged on the street almost daily.
He had a drinking problem 15 years ago but he has not had any alcohol since then. He doesn't smoke or do drugs. Like most men his age....he has a little bit of a belly brought by aging ....not by obesity.
He is very stubborn and refuses to go to the doctor for fear that his company will lay him off. Plse suggest medical condition
