ok so we all have heard about the swine flu. but luckely for most u are not near the affected areas. me however, im 30 minutes away from mexican border, and towns surrounding mine have already begun to shut schools down. im pregnant and not sure what would happen if i got the flu.Tamiflu and Relenza are medications given to swine flu victims, but is it known to be safe to take these antivirals while expecing? what do i do if i get this damn swine flu? am i more sensitive because im pregnant? i had a flu a week ago. what can i do? what do i do?
echinacea tea is illegal in US. and not healthy while pregnant.
mexico city is not the only place swine flu is present. swine flu cases are being reported around all of mexico, including mexican and texas border. the media does not state truth. this is why i am worried, because like i said, i live less than 30 min. from border towns that have swine flu. i live by many mexican/us bridges that let ppl traveling to and from mexico in. mexican are constantly someing over to shop and eat in my town. my town is a hot spot for rich ppl from mexico city and monterrey mexico to come and spend money.
and another thing. im doing my internship for my massage therapy license. which means i am constantly touching ppl. diff. ppl of ages and ethnicities.
