What do you do to avoid all the sicknesses?

[Michelle89]

Do you do anything extra to keep from catching all the viruses and infections going around? I definitely do a lot of hand washing and have been disinfecting the house more.

Also, do you take anything you've had good luck with when you feel like you're coming down with something?

I'm currently on prednisone, imuran and humira. Looking for ideas to avoid all the nastiness

Hand sanitizer - at work and home.
Spotless clean home.
Unwell students who attend class are sent home. (I'm a teacher)
Work from home if I'm sick.
Stay away from sick people.
Eat healthy food.
Take a probiotic everyday.
Get plenty of sleep and rest.
Avoid stress.

Wear latex when washing dishes and in dru's office and public bathrooms. Y'all can call be bob whiley from the movie " what about Bob." But I'm not able to afford to get sick.

Funny! My family is starting to call me Monk (from a show we like). I do have gloves on hand left over from a household project. I kept them to wear in case my kids get sick....but I like your plan though! I also plan on getting some masks in case I get some sick kiddos, lol.

Since we are on immunosuppressants it really seems like common sense. You'll be surprised how many people don't wash theirhands after they get out of the bathroom then I'm touching the same doors as them? Gross!!!oo:

I am diligent in taking probiotics dailiy and up one or two when under more stress or around illness. Also am now starting to drink Kombucha. Always take my daily vitamins. I do not use any antibacterial soap or cleansers. Was told long ago by doc that too antiseptic can also cause you to be more sensitive to germs because of of creating a bubble world, so to speak. Keep stomach as healthy as possible and eat/drink well.
