Hate to hear that. Hope you get to feeling better.My feet, neuroma, and cough have decided that sleep is unnecessary for me, even though I am sick. (Feet are on fire. So is the neuroma, thanks to the cough not shutting up.)
Best thing for this assuming it is not banned from your home is whiskey or bourbon, rock candy an honey.
Take one bottle of bourbon an pour most of it in to a jar filled with rock candy. It can probably be made from regular sugar to but rock candy is tradition. This is for sipping on all day assuming you drink lots of water an are home on the couch.

Here is a jar I have that has never been opened an I have no idea the date on it. It says milk can be used too but warm sugar milk I dont see doing much. Only date on the jar says sense 1880.
Whats left over in the bourbon bottle is mixed with honey. I usually have to heat it in the microwave some to get it to mix. Usually about 1/4th honey when mixed. Traditionally here we take a shot or two at night an go strait to bed an sleep on your belly if you can or side if not. Never on your back.(not on your back is standard, nothing to do with the drink) A half a shot glass will get a kid threw the night, full shot glass will get a non drinking adult threw the nigh an 2 will an heavy drinker.

NyQuil is based off these two but uses chemicals to do it. Bourbon cuts the mucus in the throat clearing it. It also turns off the part of the nose that make it. Ever time you breath out from then on you system is exhaling bits of bourbon keeping the throat an nose clear. The bourbon also knocks you out an suppresses your nervous system making you hurt less an stopping the need to cough. The honey coats the throat protecting an soothing it.
Disclaimer to ANYONE reading this- Though I have medical training, this is not standard medical advice an should not be taken that way. This is a traditional cure that I happen to use. Use at your on risk when 21 an older after consulting your own doctor, your parents an maybe even the pope. Do not break any laws. Yada, Yada, Yada, cover my butt an all...
