I neglected to get a flu shot this year like my girlfriend suggested and now ive been horribly sick for almost two weeks now. I cant keep down solid foods, and when I went to the doctor they said that no antibiotics would help as its a virus and it has to run its course...Anyone have any tips to help raise my immune system? Remedies your mother used or anything...im getting desperate now to get out of this blanket and chair...worse yet college starts next Monday and my first class of the day is "weight training" so not only will i be sick as a dog, ill be weak as hell as well...

Drink lots of water and piss the germs away. When people are sick they actually tend to let themselves get a little dehydrated, and you need more water than usual, not less.

I like to use South Park's cure for SARS, the white man's cure they called it. What you do is drink 7-up (or sprite, or sierra mist, etc.), eat campbells chicken noodle soup, and rest a LOT. Also drink a lot of water and try to get some Vitamin C. If you can keep it all down, that is. If not just try sipping on gatorade. A small sip ever 20-30 minutes works, it keeps you hydrated and you're not putting a bunch of stuff into your system right away.

All good suggestions......I would also add a nighttime THERAFlu to the suggestions. That stuff does wonders for me.

Fluids, fluids, fluids.
Keep calories coming in, broth or crackers if you have to.
Vitamins will help, and fluids.

I've never actually had one though, but apparently they work wonders... Hope you feel better! They work wonders because you sleep for about 18 f***in hours after one......seriously. I had one and slept thru an entire day and woke up......no idea what Goddamn day it was........ But really, here's a real tip......don't get a flu shot. They suck and they're not needed. Firstly, the only even begin to work if someone managed to guess which strain of flu we get this time. Secondly, I don't remember my last flu shot, probably 15 years ago or more and my grand total of flus in that time.........drum roll.......zero. Lastly, unless you're a child or elderly, you don't need one....... Also, blow your nose, cough, puke and shit and piss as much as you can....these are all ways your body deals with the virus. |
