Sick Again!
Kendra, sorry to hear you feel so bad! A couple of years ago I started with pneumonia and kept getting sick month after month. By June I felt that I must have an autoimmune disorder. I called my PCP, who is generally very conservative, and he said I should go to a health store and buy elderberry supplement. Apparently it boosts your immune system after lot's of illness. At any rate he said it couldn't hurt me and I wasn't testing positive for Mono. So I tried it and felt better. I don't know whether it was the elderberry, but I would do it again if the same situation presented itself..
I hope you feel better soon!

Hey it's worth a try. May be I should call my PCP and mention it to her and see what she says. All the blood work I had done last month was all normal except for elevated liver enzymes. Which my surgeon did blood work on me three weeks ago to check my liver. I haven't heard back from them, so I'm assuming it was fine.
Thanks,
Kendra
