Guest guest Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Hi everyone, All week I have had the flu. I have had every symptom imaginable. I have a terrible cough, persistant fever, fatigue, body aches, migraine head ache, vomiting, upper body rash that I always get when my immune system is challenged, and now I have a cold sore. It has been 6 days of this. But I am ESPECIALLY MISERABLE and ANGRY b/c I have spent a fortune at the FFC trying to boost my immune system. I am on so much stuff - both prescription and herbals. He has me on Armur thyroid b/c even though it was in range it was not optimal, cortisol for the same reason, this nasty tasting vitamin drink, an antiviral supplement, an immune system enhancer supplement, low dose naltrexone to boost immunity, HRT cream, Namenda, Nortriptyline, Flexeril for pain, a bone health supplement, Nutritional IVs, immunoglobulin injections, and many other things. ANd here I am sick as a dog! I was just about to start the Lyme treatment and have taken a week of Diflucan w/o an exacerbation in pain. I was supposed to start the Doxy too but since it can bring on flu like symtpoms I thought it would be best to get rid of the flu first. I am beginning to think an antibiotic may be needed and am tempted though to just take the doxy. Thanks for letting me vent. I am just very discouraged. Love, Sandi Don't get soaked.
