When you have SVI(Systemic Viral Illness), you want to gulp on all the Vitamin C capsules you can find on your cupboard, drink lots of Orange Juice, and get to sleep hoping that by the time you wake up you will fully recover. But that isnt the case unfortunately. Sometimes being sick is a good opportunity to asses yourself. You may have not been able to handle a lot of stress lately that could have triggered to suppress your immune system. I remember this Doctor from St. Lukes Medical Center lecturing his patient that 99% of all diseases are stress related and induced. In relation to that, I also remember a colleague of mine also from St. Lukes lecturing the same patient about the top 10 reasons why to avoid stress. It was meant as a joke but the patient, doctor, and me laughed so hard. A laugh is not really a cure or remedy but it can make you feel better and lessen your stress. It is such a simple thought but sometimes people forget even the simple things.
