Vitamins

You know what I am getting really fed up with?  People seeing that I am STILL poorly, that I am still coughing, sneezing, spluttering, and they tell me I should take vitamins and eat properly.

Here's the thing.  As a general rule, I DO eat properly.  I certain have my five-a-day in the ways of fruit and veg, and not to mention, on top of that I take Multivitamins & Minerals, AND a Vitamin B Supplement which has extra Vitamin C in it to boot.

I drink pure juice.  I eat fruit.  I eat veg.  To be honest, I hardly buy anything in the way of "snacking" food, junk or whatever.  One, I am losing weight and want to keep it that way.  Two, I don't want the kids to reach out and grab junk when they can grab a banana or something.  Three, to be honest, I can't afford to buy crisps, chocolate, biscuits or whatever...

Lastly, as my doc told me last time I was there with germs, he told me that part of having Chronic Fatigue/ME was being unwell in general.  From the ME Association web page:

Symptoms which suggest on-going abnormalities in immune system function include sore throats, enlarged glands, joint pains, headaches, problems with temperature control and intermittent flu-like feelings.

So it would seem that it's my lot in life ;)
