I Had The Swine Flu
 

I can tell you it was not fun. About 2 weeks ago I got sick, fever-chills, cough and then got better. About 4 days after that I went down a lot worse and basically had about 5 days straight of a 101ish fever that didn't break and sweating through absolutely everything. Probably changed clothes 3 to 4 times a day and twice at night. Forget sheets, I slept on towels and wrapped my pillows in towels. I will say to anyone thinking about getting the vaccine that they should consider it. It sucked. Feeling better now, but they put me on antibiotics to make sure I didn't get a secondary infection while my immune system was down. Finally able to get back to work.

Glad you're feeling better bro.

No they should not consider getting the vaccine. Glad you're ok though.

I agree, the RN's and MD's at my school are highly against it. At this point more negatives then positives.

Look I just said to consider it, I have no need to get it now and I'm not telling people to get the vaccine, but if you are pregnant woman you should consider mainly b/c of early child birth if you get the flu.

Mind you I doubt there are many pregnant women trolling the site.

Made in China. At your own risk.

Nasal is made in good old U.S.A. If you must.

I've cut down on pork consumption

I know when it comes out and I have a hankerin for some:

mercury, one of the most potent toxins known;

aluminum, another potent neurotoxin (like mercury) that has a synergistic effect with mercury to cause more damage that either alone;

squalene, safe when ingested, powerfully dangerous when injected. can wreck the immune system and set off all sorts of inflammatory reactions;

ammonium sulfate, GI, nerve, liver and respiratory poison;

beta-propiolactone, a known carcinogen;

latex, good fun for those allergic to it;

MSG. Yes, that's right, monosodium glutamate. This stuff causes your neurons to fire at about 1000x it's normal rate, which usually ends up in that neuron dying;

formaldehyde, the stuff they use to embalm things with. causes damage to multiple systems through the body;

polysorbate 80, another known carcinogen;

tri (n) butylphosphate, kidney and neuro toxic;

glutaraldehyde, known to cause birth defects!

phenol/phenoxyethanol (2-PE), commonly used as an antifreeze and known to cripple the immune systems primary response mechanism.

I'll be first in line!

BTW, the CDC's actual projected death rate from this is less than 2 in 100,000 that become infected, making it one of the least dangerous flu bugs in modern times.

Sorry to hear about this Randall. Thats scary stuff. You must have a lot of laundry to catch up on.

You talked me into it.

As long as the shot is free .... count me in.

I got H1N1 TODAY. We had to get them, it is mandated to be able to work in the hospital. Im feeling ok, everything seems normal. It was free.

Many people of the Asian persuasion wear protective masks on the busses and trains here. I decided tonight it is probably a cultural thing but maybe not so bad of an idea these days. I really cannot afford to get sick.

My plan to rid the world of another Savantore has worked!

Yeah, interesting video.

Of course, that one in a million stat they say is a lie.

What happened to her is almost certainly mercury poisoning.

Doctors speak out AGAINST vaccines
 

After watching the news Sunday morning on tv (big mistake), and seeing sheep...errr people lining up for HOURS to get themselves and their children vaccinated, I felt compelled to share this video. Needless to say, this side of the story was NOT in the news reports:

Awesome.

Every time I watch from 1:36 to 1:41 I laugh my ass off.

I know, I know, I will have front row seats at the 50 yard line when I die and go to hell.

Sorry man...I feel for you if you don't get your kids vaccinated.

You feel for him if he doesn't get his kids poisoned?

drink sam adams..it has all the things you need..

I'm sorry..I don't sign up for the Moon landing in Arizona, 9/11 conspiracy/Flu shot poisoning theories...There were 150 out of 900 kids sick in my daughter's school...She is getting a flu shot and if others want to chant and pray around their sick kids, then good luck to them. I respective your alternative med stuff, but a flu shot isn't "poison"

You mean except for the known neurotoxins and carcinogenic chemicals they put in it?

Cause yeah, otherwise, you are right.

Wrong.

But, the priests in white robes tell us it's good for us!

dont know if this is true but it cant hurt and you dont have to poison yourself.



The
following advice, given by Dr. Oz, makes a lot of sense and is important
for all to know:


The only portals of
entry are the nostrils and mouth/throat. In a global epidemic of this
nature, it's almost impossible to avoid coming into contact with H1N1 in
spite of all precautions. Contact with H1N1 is not so much of a problem
as proliferation is.


While
you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1 infection, in
order to prevent proliferation, aggravation of symptoms and development
of secondary infections, some very simple steps, not fully highlighted
in most official communications, can be practiced (instead of focusing
on how to stock N95 or Tamiflu):


1.
Frequent hand-washing (well highlighted in all official communications).


2.
"Hands-off-the-face" approach. Resist all temptations to touch any part
of face (unless you want to eat or bathe.)


3. *Gargle twice
a day with warm salt water (use Listerine or Hydrogen Peroxide if you
don't trust salt). *H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in
the throat/ nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic
symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In a way, gargling
with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu
has on an infected one. Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and
powerful preventative method.


4.
Similar to 3 above, *clean your nostrils at least once every day with
warm salt water, or hydrogen peroxide. *Not everybody may be good at
Jala Neti or Sutra Neti (very good Yoga asanas to clean nasal cavities),
but *blowing the nose softly once a day and swabbing both nostrils with
cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down
viral population.*



5.
*Boost your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C (Amla
and other citrus fruits). *If you have to supplement with Vitamin C
tablets, make sure that it also has Zinc to boost absorption.


6.
*Drink as much of warm liquids (tea, coffee, etc) as you can. *Drinking
warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse
direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the
stomach where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any
harm.

I've gotten the regular flu a couple of times in the past and recovered in a few days each time.

It's never occurred to me to get a vaccination for this, as I know even if I get the flu I'll recover. Only through reading different forums and reading about people panicking and getting the vaccination has the idea even crossed my mind that there is even a vaccination. But still, I don't believe I'll ever get the vaccination.

I don't know what "swine" flu is like though, so maybe the circumstances are different, but I feel fairly safe not taking any type of flu vaccination.

There are more doctors here than trainers. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Anybody watch V last night? Or remember the earlier version that they said was from the 80s but I could swear was from the 90s? Or know who Thomas Pynchon is?

Drugs Drugs Drugs, enough already

this is really the only alternative.
