Summary

Uses Oscillococcinum, a homeopathic remedy, at the first signs of flu symptoms, alongside Hyland's Calms Forte for sleep and decades of ongoing Grape Seed Extract use. Illness duration and severity are not detailed, and this account concerns flu-avoidance rather than a specific chronic-illness recovery. At 79 years old, reports going roughly 8 years without signs of flu and not having had a flu vaccine in about 30 years. Keeps Oscillococcinum on hand as ongoing preventive maintenance.
