Well so much for social isolation. Had tree trimmer friend in a bucket truck here Friday to help beat back the jungle. Despite outdoors and social distances, he apparently gave me Covid. Monday I started with a headache that progressed thru the day to full body ache. Afternoon covid test shows positive. Out comes the preps.
[NOT medical advice! This is what I did for my personal self.]
Vitamin D 5000(morning) + another 5000 IU now
Selenium (morning) + another now
Quercetin (morning) + another now
Zinc 50mg (morning) + another now
Quinine extract = two droppers full
Ivermectin 24mg now, will do 12mg daily for 5 days

Tylenol and Ibuprofen together for the aches
This was the worst night of my life. Body aches like the flu… times ten! Drinking water all night. Bloated, Vomit mucus. Low temp fever, only 99, but the chills and sweats every ten minutes. Fever finally broke @ 0230 and I took a shower at 0330. Now posting in the wee hours I feel almost normal… like a dishrag all rung out, but no pain.
Five days of isolation at the ranch to look forward to. No problem.
At this point I will say Thank God for Ivermectin. Knocking the virus down early is key to better recovery, and the Ivermectin and protocol broke my fever in 12 hours. I cannot imagine enduring that pain for another day… or however long.. if one does not have a good immune system. I have inflamed nasal drip now, and post nasal drip in the throat with a mild cough. Like a bad cold.
And on the bright side, I now have built natural immunity. No shot needed and works much better.
