Why do i get frequent viral infections ?, blood test and urine test came back good. i get 1-2 colds a month and had gastroenteritis in march

Infectious Dis. eval: Although your life style may be related to your frequent colds, for example, being with young children who are sick or being a teacher and being exposed to children who should have remained at home because they have colds, I would advise an infectious disease specialist. The latter can give you a much more extensive evaluation of your immune status profile. Blood test not enough.
