Hi Marlene,
Thanks for the suggestions. I had a stomach virus pryor to my latest sinus infection (of 3 weeks so far) and could certainly have tipped the balance of my immune system the wrong way. Also I take 1000 IU of Vitamine D daily but I think the current trend is toward megadosing. What do you take/recommend? Maybe I can get the hematologist to take a vitamine D level on Thursday. My wife is a nurse and stuffs my daily pill box with loads of vitamines but tends to shy away from going much above MDR levels.
Thanks,
Ron AKA flyguy
