Guest guest Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 This post is from a woman in Texas and describes her flu symptoms explicitly. http://flutracker.rhizalabs.com/ " Well, I did not go to my doctor, and was not tested. So I cannot speak with clinical certainty, however I have had the flu more times in my life than I can count, and it always feels the same. I have no doubt that had I not increased the dosage of Colloidal Silver, that by the 2nd day each time I began feeling ill, that I would have been flat on my back in bed. Each time, the very first symptom was a profound light headed feeling, followed quickly by extreme mental sluggishness, queasy stomach, rising body temp, extreme lethargy, body aches, and chills. For me the flu has always " felt " the same. The difference with whatever this one is, is that I have never had this extreme mental sluggishness. Not to this extreme. I cannot emphasize enough how extreme it was. I had to concentrate with extreme effort to be able to form thoughts, speak them to my husband, and even perform simple tasks such as being able to remember where I was going when I stood up. I literally had to concentrate hard to remember if I was going to brush my teeth or put the dogs out. This brings me to something important that I want to say. If anyone should begin with symptoms such as I have experienced with the inability to concentrate, and live alone or are alone at the onset of symptoms, you must phone someone and let them know. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that had I lived alone, that I would have been unable to even make a phone call for help if I waited for more than a few hours. It was as if my brain was filled with cotton. Something else that I wanted to mention is that earlier I had read part of a post about patients in Japan, and I think something about their cells, and maybe fatty acids. I think there may have been mention that it was odd that there had been no fatalities. My notebook overheated and I was unable to read the full post. A few weeks ago I had read recommendations on some health supplement web site that included Omega 3 as possibly being helpful. What I read was only a short list of a few supplements that they believed would be of benefit. So perhaps the diet of the people in Japan has had somewhat of a protective effect. I am by no means a specialist in infectious diseases, I am just researching daily like the rest of ya'll. [sorry, I couldn't help it - I have spent all my life in the South, mostly in Dallas, and that's the Texan spelling ] The symptoms we come down with, are our bodies' immune response to invasion of disease, if I am expressing it correctly. I don't have a specific name for it, but I know that my husband and I have had a flu. I believe that the reason that our symptoms returned multiple times is because each time we felt better, I mistakenly immediately reduced our dosages of Colloidal Silver to a minimum level. I should have kept the therapeutic dosage for several more days. From my perspective, this strain we have experienced is extremely contagious. When I realized how serious the pandemic was capable of becoming, I began sterilizing door knobs, and light switches, put out antibacterial soaps at each sink, increased my hand-washing, and still it made it's way into our lives. If you think of it, there could have been the germs on the groceries. But you know we simply cannot go around spraying everything in sight with hydrogen peroxide, clorox or alcohol. It's just not feasible. There are members here who have far more knowledge and expertise than I. Which is why I read here twice a day Thank you to all who contribute " .
