Sick Again.....Again.....

[JediJohnnie]

So, I'm very far behind in posting this month. But for the past week I've had this nasty flu. I haven't eaten more than a couple pieces of toast a day for all that time. Recurring fever and all that. It's been about a week, so I'm hoping this is nearing the end.

I hope you are over this soon too.  Was sick myself yesterday and today.  Think because this weather changes hot to cold, hot to cold in Florida.  Drink plenty of fluids.  Stay hydrated.

If you can't keep food or liquids down, you might consider going to the hospital or urgent care so they can give you fluids via IV. Dehydration is nothing to mess around with. And if you haven't gotten better after a week like you say, there might be something more serious wrong with you that you might need the medical attention anyway.

The best way to ward off getting sick is have a strong immune system.I put this up in the past i will gladly do it again.

There is a company thats been around over 25 yrs and has an A+ BBB rating called Purity Products.They have a product you can get a month supply called Fiber-biotics.They are a tasty wafer you can chew that will put good bacteria in your gut that will help your immune system.I also recommend you get their organic juice cleanse in flavor you like.I have the dark chocolate and if u like chocolate milk u will like this.You can mix it with anything but i prefer 2% milk or skim.

I have been with this company for over 15 yrs and their policy is evidence.For as much as they have done for me and to help others i feel to let others know about them is worth doing.ITS free advice that just might go a long way.

If my memory serves me correct i had mentioned them in the past with a few FC members speaking positive about them.

They have it all and instead of running to Drs and taking anti-biotics this might serve you well.

They have a website.Again i stress Fiber-bioticsfor the immune system and check out their other stuff u might find useful.

Let me add of course exercise,eating right,sleeping well,no bad habits etc help too.

Those looking to lose weight might find some helpful products too.

My wife had 2 back surgerys in the past yr.They just came out with a product specifically for back problems that i think i will try for her.I have no info on it yet.But again i recommend Fiber-biotics.Ive been taking them for yrs and i think they have helped me beyond a doubt not getting colds etc.

Sorry, you have been sick. I hope you get to feeling better soon. I use to not be a vitamin person but having to deal with a lot of sicknesses myself I've learned how it can bring your immune system down. I'm a big fan of vitamin c to help with all these weather changes, getting colds and the flu. I'm also a fan of soup for the flu/colds or a broth even if you can only stand a little at the time. I've learned it really does help build my strength back up. They have so many soup recipes online now it's unreal you may want to try one. Using fresh ingredients is a big plus with taste too for me. I have seen where fresh or even in a can both have helped build my strength back up faster. Good luck to you and hope you are feeling much better soon.

Bless your heart!  I hope you are feeling better real soon!  I have been fortunate and have avoided the flu.  I'm starting to have allergy problems now since things are starting to bud out.

I hope you feel better soon.  Did you get a flu shot?  Hitch...I remember you posting that before.  As soon as I’m done posting I’m going to order it.  Thanks for the heads up!

[ghunter]

Feel better real soon.

Hi Nancy,I dont trust shots or vaccinations.

Let us all know if u order anything from Purity how u make out.I know there are times we need a Dr,but i feel prevention could be helpful before it gets to that.

People always say that but the change in temp outside cannot make you sick.  You have to get the germs.  The issue at least where I live is people go to work sick. Mostly because they do not have a choice. Then people will be close to death and they will go to Walmart.  And most people are rude buttheads and cough all over the place and never offer to cover their mouth.

That's so true.  People do to go work sick, there are times when they have no choice.  Then there are people would cough or sneeze almost in your face.  Last week I was at the grocery store and my cashier was hacking and her eyes were watering.  She said she had allergies which I doubt.  Anyway I was planning on paying cash which would have had her give me change until I saw her nose running and she calmly wiped it with her hand.  Needless to say I changed my mind and used a debit card instead.  How gross!

[pectacon]

I understand people have to go to work sick sometimes because they can't afford not to, but a lot of people could be more courteous when sick. Wash your hands and try not to sneeze directly at me!

[debidoo]

Awwwwww  so sorry to hear that - the flu is so bad.  I have a friend that was coming over to help me do some stuff in my house two weeks ago and he cancelled because he thought he had the flu and i have a lot of health issues and as such I am presuming not a super great immune system.  I hope you are on the mend and quickly now so you feel better and can eat more than toast.   

[madeara]

I am sorry you are sick.  I hope you feel better soon.

I am sick all the time too but that is nothing new. I have tried so many different things but nothing really seems too work. I am not sure what too do.
