Sick (again)

I can never seem to fight off sickness myself, either need antibiotics or steroids or I just continue to get worse. I try to remind myself that I'm on an immunosuppressant and have a medical condition that suppresses my immune system, but I always feel so down and defeated by going to the doctors. And I often worry that it isn't good to be on antibiotics multiple months in a row. I already take vitamin d as prescribed, and I take vitamin B-Complex, C, AND zinc daily and am still getting sick. I'm not sure there's much else I can do. It makes me feel so isolated sometimes, and I feel like I can't go anywhere or do things without getting sick. I missed out on a family reunion a few weeks ago because there was a lot of sickness going around and I STILL got sick a few weeks later. I'm just so frustrated and feel like there's no winning in this situation. :/

Antibiotics don't help if you have a virus. I get frequent viral respiratory infections from being on Kesimpta. When I was on Rituximab I used to get yeast infections in my armpits. I had to use antifungal creams.
