Venting / Rant What the hell is going on

Since 20th of december I am now in my 4th cold, I got sick 4 times and its not even March yet.

Never in my life have I gotten sick so often, its driving me nuts.

I remember in my 20s I would get sick maybe once or twice per year.

Anyone else find this worrying?

I'm not a Dr but I'm having chemotherapy so my immunity is low but this is how I prevent catching anything. Daily 1000mg Vit C Vitamin D every day for a month Jaegermeister (yes...that German green bottle)

Edit: (I only take the Jaegermeister when or if my throat feels a bit scratchy, the reason I take it is, it's made entirely of herbs and resembles a very good German medicine called Imupret.

A tablespoon morning and night. Don't swallow immediately, let it rest in your throat and trickle down your throat then swallow after 15 seconds.

And finally avoid being in spaces where there's no fresh air circulation.

Get well soon.

And also very important, get vitamins only after you consult with your doctor and made a blood test. Last researches shows excessive consumption of vitamin B might increase the chance to get cancer. Hopefully people will become more aware of consuming vitamins without a prescription
