How long will it take me to feel better?

i got sick yesterday and its weird because i was having a conversation about how i hadnt gotten sick in aout a year and i guess i jinxed it. :( anyways i started to feel kinda sick late last night and woke up tonight with a sore throat, unable to talk. its weird because usually when you get sick you dont feel like eating, food and water tastes funny, and your smelling is weird so i dont know what this could be because i still eat and it tastes the same. i started to feel worse today it turned into a runny nose, all my bones hurt, headache, and just now im getting a fever. i have started eating soups, esparagus, and other things you would eat when sick. i am also taking vitamin C 500mg 4 times a day as the container advises and was wondering how long should it take for me to feel better since i got plans for friday. :( any vegeterian home remedies i can use to help me feel better? thanks!
