Sore throats
by AppleJacs, Jun 14, 2007 12:00AM
Hi, I am usually not sick.
I have spent many years watching everyone around me catch the flu and it never touches me. If I did get a head cold I'd have sniffels for 24 hours and then I was fine.
Since Christmas I have been sick once a month, and each time it has started with a sore throat. I was wondering, if I have Hashi's is this the cause? And why?
thankyou

no definite increase in infections with hashi that I am aware of -- there may be some limited data, but nothing significant
