HappyGrace Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I'm the one who started the original Oscillo thread (that got shut down). Anyway, the Oscillo worked well for dd but I really have no idea if what she had was the flu. I am assuming it was because it hit hard and fast, body aches, HIGH fever, etc. (Also worked for me but I got it after her so I knew what was coming if I didn't take it, so I got it in me even earlier-first sign of body aches/fever). I bought more now to have on hand, but I'm wondering-does it work for colds, etc too? The above was the first time we've ever tried it, and with her I was 93% sure that what she had was flu, so I gave her the Oscillo. But that was maybe 12 hours into it where I could see that she was VERY sick, so it was probably flu. I'd like to catch it earlier next time, but then how would you know if it's flu? What if you just start getting a fever and give them Oscillo and it's just a cold-does it still work on colds and more mild things than flu? Asking because it worked better on me, who got the Oscillo in me earlier, so I 'd like to do that next time with anyone as soon as they start a fever, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitilin Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Yes, it'll help with the first onset of cold symptoms too. (How did the other tread get shut down?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "It's for realz!!" vs "That stuff is crap" thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyGrace Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Thanks-that will be great! For cold symptoms do you keep dosing every 6 hours? People started debating whether or not homeopathics really work and things went downhill quickly. (I will leave it at that.) And hopefully, it won't start up again here!

Jean in Newcastle Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I give it for all viruses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raceNzanesmom Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I give it as well as extra C, D3, etc at the first sign of not feeling well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitilin Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Aha. Gotcha. Yes, if it's helping, keep dosing. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyGrace Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Thanks! I'm glad to know this because I didn't want to give it for less than flu and "waste" it (since it's kind of $$) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth in OH Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I bought my Oscillo just in case the flu appears in our home, but for colds I've used zinc successfully for years. It's much cheaper. My preferred form is the Zicam cheek spray, and I start using it at the first sign of sniffles and sneezes. As others have said about Oscillo, I use it for all viruses--I figure that it can't hurt, and any immune boosting should be beneficial, right?
