This worked for me recently. I was coming down with something and it started making me feel wheezy. I made some ginger tea - simmered sliced fresh ginger in water for 10 mins, added lemon juice and honey to taste. Made my breathing so much easier. The ginger also helps the nausea I get from draining sinuses.

Also, I added about 1/2 oz of whiskey to this tea at night and slept wonderfully.

Adding a whole clove or two of garlic is a good addition as well. If you like strong garlic, slice or mash it. You can also add rosemary or dried lavender, both are good when you're not feeling well.
