Tested positive for Covid

I disagree completely........doctors have guidelines they must follow.....there is plenty of stuff out there that helps that "most" doctors refuse to recommend or use for treatment

Doctors obviously do have to adhere to current approved medication/protocols, though there is definitely some wiggle room once they are able to assess patient response. At the end of the day, it is their license on the line so it is what it is..

In routine care yes, but not in emergency care (ER) or critical care (ICU.) Just about anything goes, especially with a new illness and a crisis situation.

The notion of just about anything goes doesn’t hold up in a court of law. It just doesn’t work that way so it’s hard for me to believe you are seeing what you claim..

Licensing authorities are very, very lax right now. When you have a bunch of patients out back sitting in refridgerated trucks because the morgue was full that tends to happen.

But yeah you have to be able to defend what you did in a court of law. If the FDA says "DO NOT USE IVERMECTIN FOR COVID" and their job is to use the data available and make the best recommendations, when your patient dies of an ivermectin side effect you can't go to court and say "the FDA is a bunch of crooks, incompetent and bought out by big pharma. My prescription was right." The jury just won't buy it. You'd have to explain why it's not working in countries without an FDA and so on. Same goes for chloroquin, though I saw chloroquin given to over 200 patients on ventilators in NYC before the FDA said it didn't work. And it didn't work.

But, there are a ton of non-fda approved therapies being used on covid patients off label nation-wide and always has been even before covid. It has generally been accepted that when a patient is critical and on the verge of dying, you can use anything and the kitchen sink to help them... as long as it's reasonable and defendable.

And believe me, the doctors, staff, FDA and politicians wants these people to get better more than anyone else.

Yet the fact is Ivermectin is working great in many countries...without the FDA. So is hydroxychloroquin. What so many people fail to understand is at recommended dosages- these 2 drugs are safe even if the person taking them doesn't get benefits to help them fight Covid- I took both when I got Covid and felt better within 3 days- so has many of my friends and offshore companions.

"when your patient dies of an ivermectin side effect".....................really? Please enlighten me on people dying from doctor prescribed ivermectin. Even the media got caught in a huge lie- lying about people dying from taking ivermectin paste....it was all made up!

It's not. I watched 160 out of 200 people on ventilators die in NYC all on hydroxychloroquin. But please get an MD degree and explain to a jury how the whole medical community is wrong and you are right.

Are you saying, because you saw 160 intubated covid patients die while on hcq, that it doesn't work for anyone, in any scenario?

Just because I find it hard to believe doesn’t mean that I don’t believe you. It’s just not something I have seen or heard about occurring in mainstream hospitals. The FDA certainly is crooked, and they have done some very bad things as well as some good.

I don’t really have an opinion on Ivermectin. Between conspiracy theories, claims of fraudulent studies, and studies deemed insignificant, I don’t quite know what to think. I certainly do have an open mind to it though despite treating a few known cases that failed outpatient Ivermectin treatment. Likely more people than I am aware of as I don’t have much time to dig too deep into everyone’s admission H&P. Some people fail everything though regardless.

Problem with the chloroquins is it caused sometimes dangerous heart issues and it definately does not prevent death from covid or even reduce the amount of death ;)

We definitely had a few people go into V-tach way back in the day when we used Hydroxychloroquine. And that ended up being the event that pushed them over the edge and landed them on a ventilator. Those days didn’t last very long..

is remdesivir still used, and if so is it effective?

All drugs have potential side effects. Properly dosed, prescribed hydroxychloroquine is considered a safe medicine. I'm surprised you even bring up the rare heart related side effects. It's like calling ivermectin a horse medicine.

Sounds like many of the patients you see passing while on therapeutics are already too far down the road b that time. :confused:
 
thanosnap said:
Devils advocate here, even if hydroxychloroquine kills as few as only one in 10 million you still wouldn't want to use it if it doesn't do a damn thing for covid. Now if it's as benign as vitamin C fine, give them a gram it won't save them but it won't hurt either. Something that is causing cardiac events in a population that is super critically ill to begin with, should only be used if there really is a benefit.

Now if you really, really believe this drug works and the whole medical community is wrong, nobody is stopping you from suing every doctor and every hospital that is denying their patient from getting it and becoming as rich as Bill Gates. Go and sue in Europe too. These 160 who died on it were given it the day they were admitted and most of them the day they died.
Click to expand...
Again, the topic of therapeutics needs to be more accurately and openly discussed. Throwing terms like "severe cardiac side effects" and "horse medicine" only work to stifle conversation and serve as a benefit to no one. Could some of the people you saw die have been saved if they had access to and began a therapeutic regimen before falling ill to the point of hospitalization? I don't know. People would rather talk about the cardiac side effects, or the guy who drank the fish tank cleaner.

You do realize that we aren't vaccinating ourselves out of this one, right? Therapeutics are going to have to play a bigger role, moving forward, I think.

Oh it sure is! It’s hard to tell without having a control group in front of my face, but none of us have noticed any notable benefits in patient outcomes from the time it was implemented as compared to before. Of course that is also comparing Delta to pre-Delta.

We have been and are dealing with much more severe illnesses with Delta..
thanosnap said:
Well I don't want to give away who I am on a steroid board lol but I have worked at 2 of the top 10 hospitals in the country, made a real difference sometimes, and I've never heard someone say "I wish we could do this but those damn guidelines and protocols!" In fact ER docs and ICU docs are pretty much unimpeachable by anyone but a more senior ER doc or ICU doc and use meds off label pretty much every 15-20 minutes.

Now that I think about it, there was a time when bipap was considered too risky for the spread of covid to staff and through the hospital and I wished we could use it, but that didn't last long. Maybe a month. I never did see the arrhythmias with hydroxychloroquin but you kind of need to see the forest instead of the trees for that. And yeah remdesivir is used.
Click to expand...

We break guidelines and protocols as well to some degree. A great deal of the time, I think we try too hard and extend lives just because we can, or the the family isn’t ready to give up yet (so often). This has especially been true with COVID. Such numerous hours, efforts, and resources devoted to these patients. People really have no idea..

Yeah, that whole aerosolization of the virus with BIPAP, nebulizers, and even home CPAP units has slowly died down to some degree. There was also a time when COVID workers such as myself weren’t allowed in the cafeteria. It’s been a ridiculous road to say the least, now it’s just ridiculous in different ways.

Again- you don't seem to know what you are talking about- it works great when you are first diagnosed with Covid- once you are on a ventilator it is too late- I've seen hundreds of people recover great using Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroqin- doctors................you mean drug peddlers

Billions of doses and millions of people have used hydroxychloroquin for decades!!!!!! It is one of the safest drugs ever invented. Something like .00024% of people have heart issues when taking it- the whole oilfield uses it when you work in Africa and no one person i know ever had an issue with it- including myself- do a little research before you spout off nonsense like that!

Boy my thread is lively :)

update: Day 5, no more fever. Improving a lot. Just the usual runny nose, some headache, and lymph node lumpiness in throat. I do have bacterial conjunctivitis due to lowered immunity so that's a bummer. I got my vitamin C yesterday and took 10 grams throughout the day. I'll ramp it up to 15 grams today. My biggest concern is my wife and 3 year old daughter. I'm always worried that I might get them infected. Two days ago, my daughter came down with a stomach bug and my wife is also under the weather from round-the-clock care for both of us. They're doing better thankfully but you feel helpless knowing that there's not much you can do to help out your spouse especially when you have a young child.
 
thymoquinone.
carvacrol.

"Black Seed Oil" "Oregano Extract Oil".

Not just Covie, literally use it for anything aliment/sickness wise.

Sh*t...my daughter has stomach flu and my wife has 102 fever and all the problems I did. She's going to get herself tested. It's going to be a problem with both of us infected and taking care of a sick child. Goddamn...
 
monoclonal antibodies are the best choice. if you've been denied them, a different doctor might give them. ivermectin and other treatments usually are given along with it

otherwise maybe consider hydrotherapy during early covid on top of all the vitamins and stuff

Crap man. Prayers to everyone. That's my worst nightmare. I just tested positive today. So my wife has to take care of a 5 and 3 year old on top of a 9 week old baby. I pray none of them get it. We will also miss the Christmas programs. Actually kind of sad about that.

We all got it when my son was 10 weeks old. He did better than any of us, elevated temperature a couple days, achey, congested for a week. Ruined Easter with family but we all got through it together.

His picture from Easter he’s all dressed up nice & in bunny ears with a basket in the back yard, and his face just looks like so over all of it

I'm sorry to hear that bro. Speedy recovery to you and hope your family all stay Covid free. I'm happy to say that my daughter got some medicine for her stomach bug and is back to her usual cheerful self and eating food. My wife is doing better now after taking extra-strength Tylenol but will still go tomorrow for a covid test. I guess it's maddening to quarantine at home when you have to share the space with loved ones and help out as well. I have a mask, visor, gloves, sleeping in the living room, eating from disposable plates, washing my hands hundreds of times and I'm still paranoid that I'll spread it to my wife and child. Also we don't have any extended family who can help. My wife's parents are close by but they are not vaccinated so we can't afford to risk getting them sick. Wish there was a Covid hotel I could quarantine myself in....lol!
 
Yeah the 5 of us got it over the summer, whole neighborhood came over. We treated it like chickenpox.

My wife gave it to me before either of us realized she was symptomatic, and the baby was breastfeeding, so it was a done deal for him. Even if he had been bottle fed, he had to be held & loved.

I'm doing great now thanks :) I just have bacterial conjunctivitis in both eyes so that's a bummer. My wife tested positive for Covid too but she's been doing well. Taking her multis, vitamin c, dayquil, night quil etc. She's a lot resilient than I am. I think it's because she's a Type O blood. I read somewhere that Type O blood people have stronger immune systems. Waiting on test results on my daughter. She's thankfully all better from the stomach flu but hesitant to eat at the moment because it reminds her of throwing up so she's slowly easing back into her food.

I am doing good. I had some light chest pain and wheezing this morning. The worst was my headache and I had a little fatigue but nothing I couldn't have worked through. I was blaming the taste on my sinus infection but that seems all cleared up now and I still can't taste. It's so weird. My wife made a casserole with Raising Canes Sauce that I love and I can't even enjoy it! Haha

My headache, wheezing and chest pain are all gone now. Currently is the best I have felt since last week. Antibodies hopefully working it's magic.

I took the dog out for two 15 minute walks before the crazy winds and rain started.
 
I want to wish everyone here full recoveries. Hopefully, all of your loved ones that were infected get through it quickly and safely. I had it last month. Just a two week cold with a good deal of fatigue. I feel very fortunate. Mostly because my wife, both kids, brother, sister and many other family members did not catch it from me. I saw everyone at a wedding not knowing I had anything wrong with me. The morning after the wedding I felt shitty. So I know I didn't get it at the wedding but I must have been pretty viral that night. For my money, the vaccine did it's job.
 
It's almost a week since I was diagnosed with covid and today I'm feeling especially lethargic. I can't seem to get the energy to even stand up. Feel like collapsing everytime.

not good. do some deep breathing exercises because you could be low oxygen. and then seek treatment. try to talk to a doctor (call them?) (emergency care?) before going to the hospital if you can because the hospitals might just give you remdesivir.

monoclonal antibodies can be given up to 10 days after showing symptoms usually. you might be in the cytokine storm phase though which you would need other treatments to control

I became very lethargic. I would consider getting an oximeter if you are worried about your oxygen levels/breathing feels very impacted, but basically unless you are struggling to breath there’s not much the hospital is going to do for you. It’s a crappy virus and you have to let it run.

Try to drink some salt & water. Chicken soup/broth and some orange juice are never bad combos for fluids, sodium, simple sugars, bit of vitamin c. You still need electrolytes even if you don’t feel like eating.

I got up to 18 grams but my stomach and bloat was really bad. Started to get diarrhea.
No, I ordered it today so I'll get the pulse oximeter tomorrow.

By the way, found out through my wife's testing that we have the Omnicron variant. I was reading that fatigue is a big symptom of the virus.

Woke up feeling much better than yesterday. I'm not as lethargic anymore. Wife and daughter are doing well too. Daughter had 102.5 fever last night but after taking Tylenol and getting much-needed rest, she's feeling fine today.

Keep pumping all the supplements and vitamin C. Glad to hear your doing better.
 
Might be worth looking into thiamine (there are many more articles/studies than I've posted below):

I dealt with that as well. In fact, I still kind of get the urge to cough occasionally (but I don't *have to* cough anymore). Do you feel winded going upstairs and such?
Click to expand...

Yeah I get winded after physical activity or talking too much. I think it could be hardened chest congestion. I stopped taking OTC decongestants two days ago thinking that my cold symptoms were all gone and that's when the breathing problems started. I'm still coughing up phlegm so I'm restarting taking decongestants.

Your body can use approximately 500 Mg of Vitamin C every hour. May people take 1 gram every two hours. That which isn't used is urinated away. Many different protocols use high doses of Vitamin C for different purposes. Linus Pauling was one of the first to advocate high doses, along with the amino acid Proline (and many also use Green Team Extract). The secret to high Vitamin C dosage is to take them up to "bowel tolerance".
 
I got my pulse oximeter. Readings show between 93-94%.

Edit: Whoops!!! I'm sorry! I read the readings wrong. 93-94 was my PRbpm. My %SpOz is a steady 98.

I'd say those are perfectly normal symptoms. You need to be admitted to get remdesivir because it requires an IV. A person will always know without a pulseoximeter if they're having trouble breathing and can't get enough oxygen. There's such a thing as happy hypoxemics with covid but it's not really relevant unless you're a doctor making an admit decision. If you're going to crash you'd want to get to the ER before that happens is all. Most people don't get a cytokine storm. That's usually more relevant to people in ARDS on a ventilator. I'd worry more about your blood pressure if you're having orthostatic hypotension. Be sure to get enough fluids. Good news is in a couple days you won't be contagious anymore.

I hope your wrist will heal and that young alpha wanna be make cheating on you. He probably thinks you are so large and respectable so actually still thought it was amazing feat to beat you even with 2 hands...

Chivalry hmmm not sure what values they grow up with. Parents too much caught up in mobile phones and social media to have time give their children attention and instill

Ouch really sorry to hear that! I was training really well for a couple of years with dumbells slowly progressing in weights usingd my adjustable dumbells in my homegym. Then moving country didn´t have ny gym set up and this had a set of fixed dumbbells but it was hole between 10 and 14 kgs. Maybe if you are a large very strong giant 14kgs will be quite doable for shoulders dumbbell press.
I anyhow went from ten to fourteen kilos and the I even trained in a dumbellpress machine that didnt have my dumbbell press quite as straight. I mean with dumbbells I was having good form never hurting myself. But here in seemingly safe gym out training and also drinking some quite strong 400mg caffeine DMHA PWO..... and pop there goes my shoulder. Now 7 years later I barely feel but it took a real long time expecially small tendons in shoulder are known for that.

Seriously, I've worked in covid units from NYC to Texas and in between. There's a lot of opportunity for critical care workers right now. Believe me, nobody's holding anything back. Everything is being thrown at them from very expensive inhaled nitric oxide, ECMO, mucomyst, alfa dornase which is usually used for cystic fibrosis, to rare inhaled antibiotics, exotic ventilator techniques, proning, anti-inflammatory steroids, blood thinners, even meds the president touted that didn't work... you name it and it's been tried. I'm hoping this new Pfizer med works out.

But as for the povidone iodine. Even at half a percent concentration it'll kill the virus on contact. It won't stop the infection but I think it helps, at least theoretically, with reducing virus load. Thing is if you don't dilute it enough it'll damage your mucous membranes... nothing serious, but virus invades damaged tissue and probably does more harm than good. You can google about it.

How many do yous actually even trying high doses of vitamin C?
 
Been taking almost 20g of vitamin c lately basically a table spoon couple of times a day. Add bicarbonate with it as well as the alkaline influence on the body is supposed to help against many diseases. It bases the acidic influence of the vitamin C

Been taking 1000mgs of lysine daily for a few years now. I swear by it. Took it to prevent canker sores. Canker, not cold sores. LOL. I've also rarely been sick since starting this regimen. That being said I had covid last month but I think being vaxxed and taking lysine prevented me from getting seriously ill. Also, I finally got a canker sore during covid. Crazy stuff. I also know someone whose doctor told her to take it when she got shingles. She said doing so kind of headed it off at the pass and that hers never got very painful and disappeared very quickly. Both of my teenage kids take lysine and it appears to have been doing the job for them as well.
 
Christ, I just can't seem to get any break. Last night I had a terrible stomach ache that lasted throughout the night. It was a continuous stomach cramp in the lower ab region. Couldn't get a wink of sleep the whole night. I woke up in the morning and although the cramp is gone, I feel like trapped air/gas in the lower ab region which is tender to the touch and feels like a sharp stabbing pain. I went to urgent care and they told me to wait for 6 hours for my turn. So much for urgent...

No, it feels like an inflammation of my intestines or something. It started last night after I went to the bathroom. I've been having lose stools for the past few days but I thought it was due to the vitamin C.
