Poor dear, try lots of liquids, salty soup (chicken or otherwise) is good for the throat & the congestion. I like OJ , just a little til you see how your stomach handles it. Crackers for the tummy, hot showers for the body aches and do try to stay home for your rest & not to give it to others. I hope you feel good enough for T-day tomorrow.

It's easier to prevent than to fix.
Ginger Tea can help, elderberry extract can help
Since you are only 13, I don't want to tell you what can really help and get rid of it in 1 day.
You should ask your mom or grandma, they might know of some family secrets to help you.
Otherwise, I guess you will have the flu for the 4 day weekend.

Why go to the doctors ?
You body will get rid of the virus on its own. Relax on the couch, watch some TV, Drink healthy liquids, Eat fruits & Vestibles.
Rest, Rest, Rest.... Let your body save All it's energy for fighting the Virus.
There is a war taking place in your body. Your Body versus the Virus.

Lots of fluids like water and juice. Do not drink it cold though or else it will make you cough more, slightly chilled is fine. Dose up on your vitamin C and get lots of rest. Not to be gross but anytime you cough does mucous or flem come up? If it does spit it out, that'll help.

As long as you have NO medical conditions that Thera-Flu works really well (the off brands are good too)
Tell an adult

Take some cold medicine and get lots of rest. If you feel like eating, eat some toast w peanut butter.
