    I have had fewer infections since I gave up working in a college where I was constantly surrounded by a large number of students and I am now leading a stress free life.

    Yes I had to give up full time work often in smokey homes and with long hours. I now have less infections and less stressful days but it is hard on the family finances, all a balancing act when you have health problems I think.
