I use antibacterial hand gel, many times a day - especially after lavatory visits.

I wipe the handles of shopping trolleys with antibacterial wipes as they are covered in germs and I am neutropenic

Raw garlic helps me keep infections at bay in winter 😁. Also high dose Vitamin C and Black seed oil. Although I do other cleanses / fasting / juicing / detoxing .....

However one needs to be under the supervision of an expert Naturopath to follow this route but It really works for me. I have had CLL for 13 years and for 12 years with the above regime did not get flu / coughs / colds ...

Then I decided to take a break for 1 year and ended up in hospital (May this year) with Staphylococcus A / Pneumonia / Anaemia/ Neutropenia / Thrombocytopenia

I am now back on my regime with non CLL ers around me coughing and sneezing!

Living a more or less normal life with Lymphocyte count close to 200 . Haemoglobin 9.5. Neutrophils 1.5.

..... and counting my blessings.

I have had a lot of urinary, eye and gum infections.

I use (non plastic) baby wipes after a No.2.

Wipe both eyes night and morning with a tissue run under the hot tap.

Brush teeth night and morning and use floss at night.

So far so good (ish) !

Sorry Nick, could not see box to add comment. I also ask folks in groups/social events if they have colds, coughs etc to stay a distance from me. For Christmas parties I email reminders to all though most know me and just need a gentle reminder.

have a good Christmas buddy
