I greatly appreciate your letting me know what you have for precautions in protecting yourself from hopefully getting sick at any time. I am going to copy them and just added them to the store list. I have never heard of Nozin so am hoping that any nasal solution will work.
May I ask if you had a Covid shot? My Hematologist in the city I moved from advised me that if I had one since I was anemic, that the shot would have trouble binding with the little iron that I had and would be very ineffective. I've heard mixed messages from several doctors regarding this issue.
I am very glad that you aren't taking any chances with your health in getting sick. That's important and we can never take our health lightly.
One other question--what kind of diet do you eat that provides the best nutritional benefits for autoimmune? Currently I am on a Renal Diet and hope that is good but know that I may have to make some changes.
Thank you for writing and letting me know. No wonder you miss live music. The isolation can get hard. Hopefully hobbies will help somewhat. I don't know if you have any, but hope that you do and other things also to bust up the isolation boredom that sometimes happens.
I look forward to more information and advice. Thank you immensely for your help.
I’ve had Covid shots every 6 months since the beginning. My rheum said I shouldn’t bc he was afraid of activating my haywire immune system. I’m anemic too but he didn’t say anything about that. My neuro (also have MG) said he felt I should/could give it a try. Autoimmune disease is so individual, my best advice is read peer reviewed studies, trust your docs, and trust your gut. My health is much worse but that’s not surprising w/o COVID, so I have no idea who was right but I figured the beast I know was preferred. I have not tested positive for COVID yet and I do have some antibodies per a blood test so, I’ll stick with the plan as long as the science doesn’t change.
Sadly, I’m not doing great with diet rn. I like to stay away from sugar & red meat. I have loads of food sensitivities & allergies so it’s tricky. I’ve done elimination diets but I’ve heard good things about AIP, just can’t seem to get the energy to do necessary prep. Of course, your nutritionist, dietician, & doc should help you with the right diet for you. I will say my favorite new product is “Just Egg”. It’s a vegan substitute that’s actually really good & allergy safe!
Yep. Hobbies help. Mobility makes them hurt but it’s ok. Short, creative stints & ergonomics are everything :).
