Jimmy 2 Times Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 You can fight it Fish! It ran through my home last December and kicked me in the teeth. It started with flu-like symptoms for a few days and transitioned into an agonizing migraine and fever that lasted 8 days. It was nonstop and brutal. I couldn't think, look at a screen, or even sleep since laying down was painful. I basically stood with my head against the window for as long as I could. After I couldn't take it anymore I went to the urgent care where, after waiting three hours to get in, they informed me I had Covid Pneumonia. Then they said there's nothing they can do for me and sent me home. No meds, iv, nothing! lol I was off work for 4 weeks total. But don't worry! You're going to be just fine! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had friends and family that basically had no symptoms. Still, my Dad was a pretty vibrant dude. The day he probably got it we were in the park playing with my son. I guess it is kind of a sore spot for me when people act like it is a joke or some kind of hoax. Hopefully @Warfish skates through it easily. Know what you mean and this post hit home. Sorry for your loss. I lost my dad to it a little over a year ago. Still scarred and feel the same way you do about the sore spot. He was vibrant, no comorbitities, and I had to watch him go through the whole ordeal through an iPhone while hospitalized. Very devastating. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alworth Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Get well Fish and please, as urged by others above. quickly get to Paxlovid and/or alternative medicine therapies (your choice) as soon as humanly possible. I got it in January at the age of 72 and was worried for its duration because I had missed the short window in which any therapies are effective.

Ivermectin has been used on humans for decades now. Look at the glowing words about it from the NIH's very own website.

We all had it but not too bad. my wife and dad got the IV treatment which helped my dad, not sure it did much for my wife. we were all vaccinated and boosted at the time as well.

Ivermectin is a anti parasitic that's been prescribed billions of times that's safer than Asprin who cares if it works or not......the only conspiracy is people pretending it's rat poison and that there's no other treatment's besides an experimental leaky vax..... cha ching. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
