Start taking vitamin C!!! It's water soluble so you'll just pee out any your body doens't use, but I really think it helps. Take a couple of them every few hours. (if you get diarrhea it's too much, but I've never had a problem no matter how much I take, and it often fends off the cold.)

My husband came down with a bad cold yesterday, he's in misery today. Now I'm starting to sneeze.

Push fluids. And I do mean PUSH. Try to drink a quart an hour. You'll be in the bathroom a lot, but it really does help your body fight it better, thins mucous, keeps you hydrated etc.
