Well, it's just a virus in theory. It can happen anytime. The only time it's common in winter is cos the wind blows the "virus" around more. In summer though, the heat usually increases the chances of catching it, because is insulates the virus and makes it more potent. So if you get a cold in the summer it's usually a nasty one.

Edit: Sleep works, yes. Also try and drink sugary tea or green tea.

Omg that actually sounds quite fun.

[30stone]

I always get Hayfever. )= its horrible...

[Princess]

Hayfever is so much worse than a cold! Itchy eyes,stuff all stuck in them from sleep,burning throat,sneezing,blocked nose. Urghhhhh.

edit:I sounded so unsymphatheic in that post! Hope you feel better soon :hug:

[Ninastar]

I think i have it..... I dont know cause its only ever since i got contact lenses that i feel that way. Can contact lenses make your hay fever worse??? (I dont think its what I have now but yeh)

[Princess]

Well if hayfever already irritates your eyes,then contact lenses definitely wouldn't help.

[Ninastar]

oh right lol.

Right thanks everyone for your advice. I am going to go to sleep now cause I am really tired. I am about to take beniyln (sp sp sp??) which is the most digustuing medicine ever. Ewww it makes me want to be sick.

anyway thank youuu and nite nite!!! xxxxxxxx

[Ninastar]

Oh no. Its actually getting worse. I have been sick and I cant sleep now. I have an exam in the morning. What if i be sick in the exam. I am so scared seriously. What can I doo?? If i end up missing it what happens??? Please someone help I am so scared.
