so I figured my immune system is pretty fucking shot from five or six weeks of a cold/horrible sore throat, and not to mention three rounds of antibiotics (one time I might have fucked up but I don't think I had enough pills, the second time I KNOW the doc fucked up because he shorted me a day on the pills, and I'm in the midst of the third round.)
So, if my system is shot, can someone outline for me what to focus on to get my immune system back on track? How long do I have to be "good" diet and vitamin wise before I can go back to eating regular stuff (which isn't all that horrible, but I do eat out a lot--and when I do I don't get the really crappy stuff. Mostly its sandwiches or grilled veggie pitas.)
I also figure that I'll need to wipe everything down and wash my sheets and what not, but I'm worried that even with all of that this bacteria (which is the general consensus, that it's a bacterial infection since all my symptoms went away after the second round of antibiotics only to come ROARING BACK -stupid doctor-) might get me again.
I know that the antibodies supposedly kill that type of strain but after being sick this long (and this week has been the WORST, and murphy's law dictates that I had to turn down more parties this past week than I've had even offered to me in the past two or three weeks combined) I'm scared of it coming back.
I'm scared that while logically I know I won't ALWAYS be sick, it feels like it and I need to get healthy.
