This can be a sign of primary immunodeficiency: http://jmfworld.com/library/educational-materials/10-warning...

Regardless, you still should get checked out by an immunologist. Often, it is treatable with immunoglobulin.

While I do not have primary immunodeficiency, I have 2 rare immune mediated neurological diseases affecting my peripheral nervous system, and I am on subcutaneous immunoglobulin as a treatment. I infuse it twice per week.

I have not had a respiratory infection since being on subcutaneous immunoglobulin, and it's been about 5 years since I started this therapy.

I also feel your pain. I cannot work in an office environment due to health reasons, but some reasons are not due to immunological issues.
