Being sick, it's the pits

Of course when I am trying to get fit and look good for a wedding I am in, I have to get sick.  What are the odds...Normally I would keep working out but this cold is kicking my butt, I don't remember the last time I was this sick.  I've been trying to take cold medicine but that doesn't really do much for it.  I've been trying to rest and sleep as much as possible, but it's now day 5 and I am worse then ever...this SUCKS! If anyone has any home remedies or ideas to help me fight this cold please let me know.  I am so tired of being sick and the wedding is a week and a half away.
