awww poor Typh. Do you take suppliments? I used to get sick when someone sneezed a mile away. Now I take a multivitamin, a calcium +D, vitamin C and when I really feel run down I take a B complex. Then when I do feel something come on, I take Airborne 4 times a day for 2 days. Usually never hits.

Not usually. I have a real problem taking pills. And if it's something to add to a drink and I don't like it, my gag reflex will kick in and I'll have a hard time getting it down.

I do need to just suck it up and take some, it's just hard when my throat closes at the thought of swallowing a pill.

*sigh* Stupid childhood trauma.

Get yourself some nice injectable vitamins...

My immune system is non exsistant as well, on occasion I will shoot myself with vitamin c or b12, it seems to work better that way, otherwise I just deal with it...I HATE Airborne....GAG!

you can get chewable vitamin C!

And Airborne now comes in lots of flavors. The Lemon Lime is pretty good!

I've never tried airborne stuff.

Hmmm... Why haven't I tried the chewable VC? I'll have to look them up.

Lacey, the injectables, do they have any special training involved? Where do you even get those, anyway? I've never even heard of them.

If you are going to drink Airborne...here's the trick from a fellow-gagger...Mix it up, hold your nose & drink it down as fast as you can. If you can't taste it...it goes down pretty good. Follow it with a good water chaser! Always works when I get ready to fly somewhere...recycled air is the worst for getting sick...at least for me.
