I have crohns and colitis yes fun stuff
and i just got out of the hospital yesterday because i keep getting a
UTI. a nurse told me that he had been reading about recurring UTI's
and that they are thinking that the UTI's dont go away, they go into
hibernation, no matter how much antibiotics you take, and when your
immune system is low, it acts up
i have been battling UTIs for a year and a half now, and maybe what
the nurse read has some truth in it
so what im asking is, what are some good immune boosters that i can take?
I was thinking something with omega 3 in it like flaxseed or fish oil
can someone give me other ideas?
Thanks so much
