I'm sick.

In the head! And in my body. I feel as though I've had a permanent cold all Winter. Or a succession of colds all Winter. Is it just me? Or is this just normal for a parent of school age kids? Just fucking sick all the time from the nasty little incubators. What's up.
Damn sorry, I've been trying very hard to not go out with all the little vectors running loose. Housing one makes avoidance impossible.

When the nasty little incubator reaches six-seven, the chance of dodging the immunological bullet does not improve.
I've had a cold/flu/something all winter. I'm just waiting for ANC's evil improved strain to re-kill me.

Hey Neosapian... I feel for you brother.

I have Lyme disease that I contracted from a deer tick around 4 years ago. With my career being a full time seasonal outdoor guerilla grower, I pick ticks off of myself on a daily basis. I am positive I have had reoccurring infections from the deer ticks since the first one and honestly before that, since I have been at this way of life for over 16 years now.

I had the classical bullseye rash about a week after the bite. I did not get prompt medical treatment, mostly due to self-stupidity and just not caring enough to take myself to the doctor... I regret that, but that part was my own fault.

Now, I take lots of doxycline and I have at least 20 bottles of vitamins and minerals along with several different herbs I take everyday.

I'm always in pain, my muscles and joints always stiff, my mind is always dull and I never have energy. I now attend pain management, under a strict patient/doctor contract and currently prescribed to 140 Hydrocodone 10mgs per month. I always run out early as I am developing a tolerance. I am in withdrawal by the time I awaken every morning and its just a big crock of shit. Big pharma just sucked me right in and I fell for it... I am running a nice indoor grow right now with some very potent cuts being contenders. I plan on, once harvested to replace my pills with good strong herb. Its going to be extremely hard still because I have not missed one day taking my pain meds in the last 4 years. Although I never resort to the street to obtain extras when I run out every month and I don't abuse the medication, I am however physically and mentally dependent on opioids and I find myself running out of pills earlier each month that goes by. I stay sick, I stay in withdrawal, it sucks, its mentally and physically debilitating on top of having Lyme as well. If the Doctor would move me up to oxycodone, this would be a great temporary fix for a few months until my tolerance just climbs right back up that ladder again so really, the advantage of getting stronger meds, will quickly become a disadvantage and lead me quicker down the road I wish and would give anything to stop traveling.

I ordered some Kratom which I am already pretty familiar with. Been using it for a long time on during the last few days of the month I run out of meds... Although it helps 80%, there is still so much missing that kratom just can't fill those empty voids for me. I can smoke weed the first few days of each month, but that's it or else I risk failing my urine analysis during each months drug test at every visit to get my refills. I have found though, that by smoking marijuana along with taking my meds, I only need half my usual dose and cuts me down from 6 pills a day to 3.... Isn't that insane how strict the government is on weed?

So anyway my plan is once I harvest my grow, to combine the weed with the kratom and get one last script to also slowly help me ween off the pills. I would feel better in general if it weren't for the opioid dependency...

Sorry I got off track Jack... Just helps to be able to vent it, I guess.

But I want to recommend to you a product that has helped boost my immune system significantly and has kept me from getting the flu, strep, etc... From my children which I have a few, and they stay sick all through the winter. Its called "Monolaurin".. Made from coconuts. This shit is the bees knees for immunity support and I have not found anything comparable and that says a lot coming from a "Lymie".

There is really only one specific Monolaurin product that really works best for me and if you are interested let me know and I will send you a link.

Hope you feel better buddy!

Was that the longest sales pitch for Monofuckyoulaurin ever? Or a cry for help?

Either way pretty sure I have Lyme's too. Fucking botched biological warfare experiment.

hope you feel better neo..
i had been doing well all winter avoiding the many flu and colds making their rounds, but one day last week i woke up and had to run to the bathroom, and the passed few days i've still been having a few stomach issues, super bad cramps, like a sharp stabbing pain, and once i do finally go, i don't feel relieved in the least.. oh well, i am starting to feel a little better, seemed to have much less of the cramping yesterday and today, and haven't been making quite the same number of trips upstairs..

No man I'm for real on the Monolaurin. Just Google the substance and then look how effective it is in scientific and government controlled experiments. But the brand I was going to recommend was the third one I had tried that I actually "felt better" on. You could start with any brand, but if your interested just wanted to save you the head ache and what worked best for me.

You can also see by the reviews on Amazon that this specific one has 100% legit verified reviews.

Again... My best wishes for you to feel better bud. Just stopped by to share my experience along with yours and to wish you well. I like to help folks if I can.

If you think you might have Lyme, contact your Dr and ask specifically for a Lyme test and tell him/her that you have the symptoms.

If it was a sales pitch or marketing I would have done thrown the brand name down... That's why I offered to tell you if you were interested. Lol I don't have to throw the brand down, that's cool with me bro. Just go give "any" of them a shot and see which one will work best for you in the long haul.

I've dodged the Flu bullet this year too. I even do whatever shopping I need to do first thing in the AM before it's crowded. AND hand sanitizer in the car. If I have to take a leak when out, I look for bathrooms that have the maze instead of a door so the only thing I have to touch is my zipper and weiner.

I'm the same way. I never touch my face while out in public, and I pull my jacket sleeve over my hand, or make sure to grab 2-3 sanitary wipes while food shopping to wipe down my cart and to open doors and such. The first thing I do when I walk in the door is wash my hands. I haven't been sick in the last couple of years, and plan to continue this streak for as long as possible. Life is difficult enough with being bedridden...

Yeah, I forgot about the wipes. I even get irritated when the dispenser at Kroger is empty.
