Likwid Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 maybe its the placebo effect but i've used echinacea numerous times when I start to get sick and I either stop being sick or my time being sick is reduced to 2-3 days. I also take vitamins and stay hydrated and end up being okay. echinacea ftw!Just be careful with multivitamins. A lot of people double up on them when they get sick but the issue is that they contain a lot of fat soluble ingredients so it can make you very sick.When flu season rolls around I usually grab some Vitamin C and just take 3-5 times the amount every day. The great thing about water soluble vitamins like VitC is that your body will use what it needs then the rest goes out the normal way water leaves your body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat soluble vitamins are absorbed by the body and deposited into bone tissue usually where water soluble vitamins typical follow renal excretion.

ReconRat Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 I don't know. There is so much stuff going around in the schools in the Fall, it's hard to say what is what. This is the first I've heard of an 8-day malady. I have heard of a minor lower tract malady going around. And we're starting to get reports of people having been exposed to H1N1 through friends. One of the joys of working in a college or university.Immediate exposure risk for H1N1, within a family unit, is 1 in 10 for major contagion, and 1 in 20 for minor contagion. Major is 2 of 4 symptoms = fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose. Minor is fever with either cough or sore throat. Per CDC website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|SnOmAn| Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Socal I feel your pain. I got some stomach virus last Wednesday, felt a little better thursday. Then Thursday evening got sinus issues. Felt a little better then in the middle of the night last night, wok up with a crazy cramp feeling in my left side. I hate the doctors but I woke the wife up to take me to the ER at 3am. Come to find that I had kidney stones and one of them was passing. That sucked! All I know is the doc gave me something amazing at the ER in my IV. That was the only plus to my trip...lol. I finally passed the stupid thing this aftenoon. Wow, I don't wish that on anyone!

Wow, I don't wish that on anyone!you passed a stone today? ive never had babies the natural way but ive had stones before and that is pain i have to imagine is worse than childbirth. pain so horrible i think i passed out in shock, the only time ive picked up the fon for an ambulance. that they gave you meds in your iv is truely a blessing.. not trying to be dramatic but stones are not our friends. you havent had a good week, hopefully you have afew days to catch up/heal.

|SnOmAn| Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Yeah it sucked. My wife was telling me that the doc said it was worse then chidbirth. I couldn't sit, had to keep walking around. I had the hospital in town though, but I was in so much pain I didn't care, I just wanted it to go away. I'll more then likely be back at work in the AM. I guess it all depends on how tonight goes.
