Rest, rest, rest       01/06/05 02:30 AM Edit Reply Quote atomic rose Reged: 06/01/04 Posts: 7013 Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!) I know it sounds lame, but the good old-fashioned stay in bed and rest, drink lots of fluids, and eat chicken soup is totally what works for me. I also sometimes (when I can afford it!) take echinacea - you can find it at most health food stores and places like GNC, it's just an herb that boosts the immune system naturally. And I swear it really works. Just don't take it if you have hayfever (seasonal allergies), it'll make the sneezing worse. I never, EVER take antibiotics. I personally think that if you use antibiotics too much, you completely weaken your immune system anyway. I don't even take them when I have an infection - my body fights it off on its own. You're just as well not being able to take them! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
