Have had good success with Laktoferrin from Allergy Research (bovine sourced

colostrum, please don't kill me Sunny!). Chocked full of IgA, IgG, and IgM.

My 8 y.o. has 1/3 of his class out with colds. He started to get ill, one

dose @ bedtime, right as rain in A.M. Meanwhile, other kids are out 4-5

days. It is especially good for " stomach flu. "

with stage IV lung cancer, I had no choice but to have the flu shot. Bev.

flu season

Has anyone on this list had their flu shots and what are your views on having

the vaccine vs. not being immunized for this strain of the flu which is

supposed to be extremely virulent?

I agree.

As someone above the median age, I have had good results with flu shots

over the last 5 years, compared to the 5 years before that when I

came down with vicious flu-s -- you know, the kind where first you're afraid

you're going to die,

and then,

you're afraid you're *not* going to die.

I understand that this year there is a particularly mean variant going

around.

Anyone with pulmonary complications, like Samterites, should take this

precaution.

I hope all you Samterites in the Northern Hemisphere have had your flu shot!

If not, go get one before it's too late....

Just got our computer back to where it will turn on internet access so I am way

behind in e-mails etc.

Well, this is the first time in YEARS I have experienced a flu virus. I have

been around so many people and never came down with it (in 1999 nursed five

girls and our son at our house at the boarding academy where we live, never got

it; every year I hug and encourage kids, find out they are sick and never got

it). This one is particularly contagious and hits quickly. Our son and a ton

of his school friends have had it~ said his throat hurt and he got sick

immediately (just like a flu virus~quick and nasty) with headache, cough, high

temp, sore throat (he said it hurts like a bitch~how true is this, I

discovered), crawling skin, aching body everywhere. I can't remember when our

son (17-1/2 years of age) last asked me to rub his back or took a bath to soak

(I take them all the time normally).

Anyway, last Saturday night the sore throat and cough hit, then the aches and

headache, for me no fever but crawling skin from the aching. I was telling

this is how we feel with FMS all the time, but that's not quite

accurate~we don't hurt quite this badly. This is day three and hopefully will

be less soon as I want to travel for Christmas and will be around a pregnant

niece and two babies. I have been popping extra Immune (which includes

goldenseal and echinacea) and Valtrex, 4 ibuprofen every 4-6 hours for the aches

(even took Vicodin the first night I hurt so badly). I never get flu shots~they

make me worse anyway.

Why this year? Who knows. We are still stressed in our family~my father-in-law

was just diagnosed with a rare blood vessel cancer that Stanford only sees two

cases a year. With chemo there is a 30% survival rate, and he already is

dealing with CFS/FMS, diabetes, clinical depression and panic anxiety, a hernia,

food allergies (that he ignores) and now this. My husband is very stressed and

trying to deal with the last of his imediate relatives being sick since 2001

when we've lost 8 family members to cancer, muscular dystrophy or heart disease.

I hope this virus bypasses all of you and your dear ones. Hope your holidays

are not too stressed and difficult for you. There is a lot of sadness and

depression this time of year, and our group has been experiencing it already

with the passing of ~I cried when I read of his death as I caught up with

the messages!!! I am so blessed to be loved and understood by my family and

husband (even though his family was always dysfunctional from so many ailments).

I remember in 2003 when I first went on my food allergy diet, I wanted to cry at

the Christmas dinner as there was nothing at the table I could eat at the time

and I was feeling mighty sorry for myself. While they all ate turkey, stuffing,

potatoes, jello salad and pumpkin pie, I ate rye krisp crackers with almond

butter (my rotation for the day). I can now eat a lot more even though still

careful. So I sympathize with those of you who are limited~no fun but better to

feel good and not indulge.
