I think it's important to learn from past mistakes so as not to repeat them in the future. That's why I said what I said previously about your immune system. Your immune system is your ticket to good health if you guard it and nurture it.

One other thing I would like to question is why you would take an antibiotic (as you stated above) for a cold. You must have asked for it because a good doctor should know better than to prescribe antibiotics for a cold. The only thing you likely accomplished was to kill off a lot of good bacteria in your digestive system.
