I've never taken a flu shot. I've gotten the flu maybe a half dozen times in the past 20 years. I got the flu last year, though, and I'm in my sixties now, and it laid me out like never before. I'm seriously considering taking it now. I don't EVEN want to go through ANYTHING like my last bout with the flu. I'm not a nut about vaccines. I had every childhood disease that came down the pike except polio. I got THAT vaccine, but I got the measles, mumps, and chicken pox which my younger brothers who were vaccinated against them, never got. So I know vaccines work, though the flu vaccine seems to be hit or miss depending on what strains the filthy Chinese send our way. I just may start taking the flu vaccine, even if it only provides a small chnce for immunity against whatever bug pops up. [/quote] I think that would be a good idea as you get older. This anti vaccine thing is funny. No one has ever explained how they kill your immune system or give you toxic amounts of metals. lol you breath more each day than the shots. Oh yea i never want shingles and will get that one as i age. my grandparents went through that like 20 years ago and that looks so terrible [/quote] You are dumber than a box of rocks! No need explanations, I'm positive that you, inside yourself, you are agreeing totally with me! [/quote] How dumb is a box of rocks? I hope you understand that medicine has increased lifespan in the last 100 years. washing your hands is the biggest thing to keep yourself healthy. Most Vaccines have been around for years and have prevented horrible diseases. The flu vaccine is given by the millions each year. It may affect some persons different but the overall effect works and has decreased death by Pneumonia/Flu greatly http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumonia Prevention Prevention includes vaccination, environmental measures and appropriate treatment of other health problems.[11] It is believed that, if appropriate preventive measures were instituted globally, mortality among children could be reduced by 400,000; and, if proper treatment were universally available, childhood deaths could be decreased by another 600,000.[13] Please explain your side instead of the your dumb response. [/quote] You aren't going to convince these knuckleheads. I grew up in the fifties. I KNOW from experience what childhood diseases were all about, EVERY kid got the mumps, the measles, and the chicken-pox, and BELIEVE me they were NO FUN! The mumps was the WORST, with the glands under your ears all swollen, and the treatments back then were something out of the middle ages and just made matters worse. I remember burning up with fever from the measles, which I got TWICE. Two different strains I think. I still have a couple pock marks on my face from the chicken pox from scratching the scabs, like I was told NOT to. They itched like crazy! The reason you don't see EVERY kid getting these horrible diseases any more is VACCINATIONS. I'd like to take these nuts and inject every one of them AND their kids will ALL of these diseases, and maybe THAT would change their tune. Some idiots HAVE to learn the hard way. BTW for the guy thinking of getting the shingles vaccination, I never got one but my wife did. A year or two after she got the vaccination, she got shingles, and she was in excruciating pain. We looked it up and the vaccination for shingles is only about 50% effective, so don't think it is as effective as the vaccinations against childhood diseases. [/quote]

Now I catch every sickness that comes within a mile of me it seems.
Does anyone else have this issue?
I was never sick--u know--really sick with fever and all the great stuff that comes with a usual bug going around until after that shot.
I've read plenty. I know the shots kill your immune system. My own fault.
I don't take any medications whatsoever-don't even use Tylenol. I treat everything naturally and eat only organic, non-gmo foods. Etc. Etc.
I use essential oils to try and build my immunity and take a good supplemental vitamin.
I got sick over the summer and was basically on the couch for 4 weeks. I would like to try to build my immunity back up before this winter with the viruses we are facing this year.
I was just wondering if anyone else has faced this and somehow built their immunity back up?
