Reply to "Cold and Flu with J-Pouch"

NewPouchMikeMember

thanks for comments all.....

I'm operating presently on assumption that as epic suggested I just got two separate strains over short period of time or I never got the first one totally out of my system and then got it all over again.

I'm still planning on getting a flu shot this year but I guess I will need to wait a bit longer until I'm sure I'm totally over this current cold/flu......

So it doesn't sound like there is anything extraordinary going on for us as J-Pouchers..??.... I was surprised when I was on the immune system reducing drugs for so many years that I didn't get sick frequently??...

As mgmt noted I usually operate on the "not broke don't fix" approach with things and since I have been doing well generally for many months now I'm not really eager to end up in a doctor's office because of cold/flu.... but just wanted to check with all of you if there were other issues we should be aware of.... thanks !! -Mike
