I feel like shit.
When I woke up yesterday morning I felt kind of sick and my condition worsened significantly over the course of the day. When I went to bed last night, I fell asleep rather fast but woke up an hour later feeling terrible and just being able to nap for about 30-40 minutes until I wake up again and again...
Normally, I'd stay at home the next few days, drink a lot of tea and wait to get better. However, this is NOT an option this time! I have an exam in 8 hours, which I could theoretically push to the second exam date, but then I will have too many exams over the course of a few days.
On top of that, I know that I have studied enough for this exam so I can pass (I actually aimed for a good grade, but being sick I'd be just content to pass).

Here is the list of all my ailments. Help me cure as many as possible of them in 8 hours so I can write my exam in at least a semi-normal condition:

- strong back pain and weak pain in my limbs
- just about bearable headache
- my nose is sligthly stuffed
- high / very high fever! I don't have a thermometer, but it feels quite high. When I lie in bed I'm sweating like a pig. My body feels extremely hot while my room is not even really warm.
- An extreme tickle in my throat. I feel the urge to cough every other minute and I don't even have anything to cough out...


Here is also a list of the drugs I have at home. However, in about 2-3 hours the pharmacy right in front of my house will open, so I can get more stuff:

- paracetamol
- Ibuprofen 600
- Grippostad C (a pill with a mixture of: 200mg paracetamol, 150mg Vitamin C, 2,5mg chlorphenamine maleate)
- ACC Akut (600mg Acetylcysteine, Vitamin C)

Any advice is highly appreciated!


TL;DR:

I'm very sick (bad cold), but I have to write an exam in 8 hours. Tell me what to do/take in order to feel not completely terribly during my exam.

I don't really know much about medicine but I usually use this for back pain.

Sounds like a flu

The back pain could just be from sleeping position (even though muscle pain could be from the flu)

but i don't have any medical background

If it is the flu, there's no medicine that can cure you completely in such a short time period.

Just take an anti-congestant + some ibuprofen if you have a headache and try to do your best.

The Ibuprofen will lower your fever (Take this now and 30 mins before the exam). But You should buy a Termometer as soon as the pharmacy opens, and check it every hour.

Grippostad C will take care of the pain (Paracetamol) and the stuffed nose (Chlorphenamine, but be careful this can make you fall sleep.) Take this 1 hour before the exam.

Buy some Dextromethorphan for the cough. Take this 1 hour and take it again 20 mins before your exam.

You will get rid of the flu symptoms for at least 3 hours after you take all of this.

edit: Also I'm not a doctor you shouldn't take this as medical advise. If the fever keeps rising you should see a doctor ASAP.

how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?

Vitamin D and magnesium won't make him feel better in 8 hours.
He needs to be symptomless for the exam.

Isn't it possible to do the exam at another date when you are sick?

You should definatly see a doctor ASAP and stay in bed after that for 2-3 days.

It sounds like a flu, which isn't something to joke about. There is no way you will be fine the time you have to do the exam.
