My wife has come down with the H1N1 flu , the doc says she has passed a corner and thinks she will be all right now, but it was a bit scarey for a while there because she was having trouble breathing for a bit there. She says that now She just feels like crap with a splitting headache. She said it would be a good diet cause you can't eat either.

Thanks
 
Have her get some Vitamin D and do an overdose for a few days. Do some research.

Sorry to hear that Roger, prayers here.
 
Yeah Ron She is a Care aid and is taking all sorts of stuff for it. I am showering twice a day and washing my hands two or three times trying to stay ahead of it.
 
Yep...had 4 kids home 2 weeks ago here with H1N1 (we think). Test kits for our area got frozen during air-transit, so doc couldn't be 100% sure...all the symptoms were typical so doc said NO SCHOOL for the kids.

It is a tough one, but much worse for kids than adults. Sounds like she's already turning it around and gonna come through OK.

Thoughts & prayers...send her our best wishes.

EDIT: hand sanitizer in the pump bottle is a great defense for this crud going around...use it often.

Prayers are flying your way. Run out & get some echinacea from the pharmacy or health store. It may knock it down a little faster. It has worked for me anyway.
 
Stay strong brother............

Prayer for mrs. GnuBee!!!!!!!!
 
Prayes from the sunny state to Roger. The wife is a lso a health care worke and had her own bout with h1m1 and it took awhaile but her amunion system is wacked out with some atheritish. I hopw your wife keeps it to her self anf not give it to you and getts better real soon. I know it maybe too late but have you tried Tamaflu yet.
 
Sounds like she's gettin past the worst part but I'm sendin y'all some prayers anyway.....Get plenty of rest and let the body fight it off...
 
My prayers for a speedy recovery, and keep her drinking plenty of fluids.
 
For all the lawyers, I am not establishing a physician patient relationship.

If she's several days into this the Echinaciae and D3 will only help minimally at this point.

There are some case reports of severely ill folks with this who received IV vitamin C (they were in to bad of shape for oral) with impressive results.

Get some vitamin C tablets or lozenges and have her use them frequently like every 1-2 hours while awake, from 500 -1000mg. You will know shes getting too much if she starts to get belly cramps or diarrhea, and then just back off. DO NOT use fruit juice as your source of Vitamin C.

They're are some recommendations out there with Echinaciae at the beginning, but you want to try to find some with the root (rhizome) in it because it is more potent. The other recommendation is vitamin D3 50,000 units per day for 3 days only. if you persist at this dose level, it will cause other problems.

Hope this helps, and prayers sent.
 
Roger hope she recovers quickly I'll say a prayer
 
Prayers and best wishes from Oklahoma. Its good that she appears to be on the mend. Stay strong and God bless.
