Plenty of rest, lots of hand washing, try to avoid places with lots of people

I feel really good if I don't get a flu shot. I take Oscillococcinum. It helps with colds and flu symptoms- knocks it right out naturally. I have a naturopathic doc. We took elderberry syrup last year when we got colds and a concoction that our doc. makes up.

I get the flu shot. I'm susceptible to pneumonia so my drs have always told me to get it every year. The one year I didn't get the shot, I got the flu. I got tamiflu so that it would be less likely to develop into pneumonia but the tamiflu made me sicker than the flu.
