Flying safer
I recently traveled to Eastern Europe and back, as well as flights and trains within the area. My HCT stayed high enough during the time, over one month, that I exceeded my usual interval of 3 wks to a month between TX's. While in the air and in crowded places, I wore a personal ionizer. About the size of a D-cell battery, it emits ions which supposedly are sterilizing and keep harmful germs away from your immediate breathing space. I don't know for sure that it works, but I didn't get sick. One web site to find the product is http://searchlightdental.com/personal_air_purifier.html. I paid $129 for mine, so the price there is a bargain.
