iegal 460 Posted June 8, 2011 Call your surgeon and see what he says. Stress is not going to make it better. Rest often so your body can fight this, drink a lot of Fluid and relax. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ybnormal 21 Posted June 9, 2011 wash wash wash your hands! I can't stress this enough...I'm almost OCD about it, for real. Everyone (husband AND all 3 kids) came down with that horrible swine flu that went around a couple years ago. I was taking care of everyone and running myself ragged. I even took 2 of my kids to the emergency room (trapped in a Mustang with two sickos ..UGH! lol) but I washed my hands anytime I had to hand them meds, food, went to the bathroom...ANYTHING. I never came down with it and the only thing I can figure is because I'm so freaky about washing my hands. Seriously, it prevents a lot! Renee` Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
