Hello - I hope that the x-rays go ok. DO they think you have pneumonia? I have found that zinc nasal spray (OTC at any pharmacy) works wonders at the beginning of a cold or other upper respiratory infection. In terms of improving your immune system in general (I am a med student so let me tell you what I have learned) you should treat your depression because that in itself is a major cause of immune suppression (treatment does have side effects though). Exercise is very important as is eating a balanced diet - with a lot of vitamin C (oranges etc.). Sleep is very very important as well. Finally, drink TONS of water (TONS!)...your body can't repair itself when it is dehydrated or hydrated for a healthy person...you should drink way over the 64 oz recommended amount. I hope that helps!
