Re: Hyper Immune Response

NikinoMember

Just wondering if any other jpoucher, Is prone to cough colds & has a bad immune response? Meaning, if I walk by someone that has the common cold or the flu, I seem to catch it …I currently have a severe cough with bodyaches, I just had a similar issue literally three weeks ago. I’m trying to balance the Jpouch & taking medication’s to help with the cough, it hurts. If you experience low immunity to viruses etc due to IBD or jpouch, what do you do to boost your immune response? I take supplements already. I commute to work via the commuter rail/ public transit three days a week so I’m constantly around people and I still can’t develop an immunity. Just curious if anyone has any suggestions. Thank you!

The simple solution if you cannot avoid crowded spaces and you have a weakened immune response is to wear a mask.

Also, get your vaccines, even if your response may not be full.
