kind I caught last year. That sucker just burned the hell out of my sinuses and nasil passages that triggered CH's. I did call my clinic and they claim they now have a shot that works if if given within 24 hours from the first symptoms of this virus. Hell, I don't have Nortons installed with big flashing red signs that I contacted this virus and it really didn't brother me until three days went by. They said this shot, whatever it was will not work.
It took three long miserable months for my body to fight that virus, I heard that was typical. Wouldn't have been that bad if it wasn't for getting 3-6 CH's per day. I avoided all meds, in particular the prednisone, my favorite as that shuts down the auto immune system. The O2 worked well, but felt like a prisoner to be near my O2 supply.
Would be nice if the medical industry could come up with some anti-virus pill, the Nortons CD disk is a bit large to swollow.
Heck, you can pick up a P-166 almost anywhere for ten bucks, just load windows and a net browser and if you get a virus, reformat and reload these two programs. My local schools and universities are contantly selling these 4 year old boxes. My main computer remains off line, they can't get a virus. Lots of people out there trying to ruin things, too bad they can't be gathered and shot.
