My family recently relocated to Israel from the USA. Since arriving, my Daughter and I have continually been sick(a month and a half), we get better and are sick again in a few days. Viruses, colds, fevers and now conjunctivitis! My daughter is 9 months, breastfed and had never been sick until arriving. I, too, live a healthy lifestyle and am not sick often. My husband has not been sick but he was born and raised here. Could our bodies just be adjusting to the Countries different environment, bacteria etc.? The doctors here are the type that say we are sick because we dont wear socks! Please help!
Thanks for posting your query to Chat Doctor. It could be due to change in climate and environmental condition. As immune system of many of the individual is so sensitive to environmental changes and may suffer same type of illness. But you don't be worried as It is not a serious problem and body get acclimatized with time spontaneously. But I wanted to know that what kind of sickness you're suffering from, weather it is only replaced to environmental condition or there is feature of .infection also. As some time infection may get associated with altered immune response. So if so happen we need to give proper treatment of infection. So send me the detail of all sign and symptom of your family member so that I can suggest you correct medication .take care.
