Re: [Everything doTERRA] Sore throat that won't go away

You poor woman, I hate it when one of those super strong bugs hit, and you are correct that emotionally it has made it worse.

So my recommendation:
Start using Balance at the beginning of the day and repeat throughout the day

The BOMB:
Capsule with 4drops each of Thyme, OnGuard, Frankincense and Wild Orange (stop the oregano for at least seven days), take every 3 hours while awake.

On the front of your chest and up your neck rub 3 drops each of Breathe and Rosemary

When you go to bed, take a capsule of 4 drops each Lemon, Peppermint and Lavender
Rub the bottom of your feet and back of neck with Serenity and Balance.

See how this works for you,
Pat

Hi, 

A few days ago, I woke up with a sore throat and so I started using OnGuard immediately. The next day, my throat was worse so I went to everythingessentials.me and started gargling with Oregano and Lemon. I must have done this 3-4 times and then I switched to gargling Lemon and OnGuard because I was still in a lot of pain and the Oregano would agitate my mouth. I probably did this 12-15 more times. (I should mention that my grandparents were in a car accident and my grandpa has been fighting for his life, so I think this sickness is elevated by stress - which I am using Serenity for). I also started rubbing lemon and Oregano on my neck and would put a hot compress on it as long as I could stand it (usually a couple minutes). I also applied meleleuca around my ears and frankincense every once in a while. 

This morning, my throat is even worse, I have gargled 3 times already (twice with OnGuard/lemon and once with Oregano/Lemon) and it the pain still hasn't subsided AT ALL and now I am talking in a really really really deep voice (which is cool, but not helpful... especially since I want to get better so I can go see my grandfather). Additionally, as it has for all three days, I have this soreness in/around my ears which doesn't seem to go away... this seems to get worse when I gargle Oregano.

Please let me know what I am doing wrong or what more I can do. I did take Night-Quil last night in addition to the oils just as an extra push to rid myself of this illness and to help me sleep as I hadn't slept well in a couple days and I did sleep most of the night.

I am out of ideas... this is my fourth day with this and everywhere I have been reading online says that it was over very quickly with them. Has anyone else had a similar experience? What did you do?
