frick a covid. I know when it’s my time to go and this ain’t it. I will walk out of this bitch, that’s a guarantee.

The sooner you seek treatment the better the outcome. If anyone thinks Covid isn't real they are an idiot, but with that said, Covid isn't the absolute killer the media wants you to think it is.

serious question; did you try to treat yourself with ivermectin, d3, zinc, etc.?
if you are just sitting there without trying to give yourself a fighting chance thats not good. you should have gotten some ivermectin STAT when the diagnosis started.

That's true...I was lucky enough to almost magically kick it one day after coughing blood. Only lingering cough and "metallic/tastelessness" stuck with me for a week or so.

And I have ivermectin but was fine so didn’t think I needed it. That’s my regret, not taking it.

Didn’t take my ivermectin and that was fricking stupid. I allowed someone to talk me out of it and because it basically felt like the flu, I didn’t fight back. I did take a Z pack And I’ve been taking daily D3, melatonin, zinc for at least 3yrs.

i dont understand. there is literally no downside to taking it unless you were holding it for..someone else?
i am talking to you as someone who almost died from covid back in the spring because there's not a damn thing you can do after the diagnosis but sit at home and wait for your blood oxygen to drop so you can go die on a ventilator.
i spent a week dealing with red tape to get ivermectin and took it religiously and it took another week or so but i slowly came back to life.
i would have given anything to have had it on hand at the first sign.
you should look up teh preventative dosage based on body weight and give that to everyone in your home right now.
i had some left over and when my daughter contracted it i jumped in my car and drove to her apartment in another city and gave it to her immediately. she was in bad shape but recovered within 24 hours. all her roommates had it for at least another week.
i know..anecdotal but i'd rather do something than nothing.

I have no argument. I let someone talk me out of it and I wanted to save it for my daughter. I fricked up.

People ITT are acting like we just learned about COVID yesterday or something. Even including the old and infirm, the death rate was sub 1% before the vaccine and monoclonal antibodies. We’ve all seen this for almost two years. Why now act as if it’s so scary?

mine dropped into the 80s and i woke up with no feeling in my feet one morning. knowing my wife would force me to go to hospital i jumped in teh hottest bath known to mankind and took deep breaths and rubbed my feet until i was able to game it back to 90.
i cant imagine what 66 would feel like. you're lucky you are in such good shape.
Posted on 10/27/21 at 11:42 am to CAD703X
It scared me too, lol. Was just hard af to breathe. When I was in the 80s it really wasn’t a big deal. It very well may be because I am in good shape, I don’t know. 66 had me scared.
Now it’s in the low 90s until I physically do something, then it goes into the mid 80s, then back to the low 90s once I sit back down.

No offense, but you have a BMI of 28.2
overweight = 25-29.9
Obese = >30
The largest misinformation about this virus has been the definition of "health" and having zero "pre-existing conditions" or "co-morbidities". Being overweight/obese & contracting covid should be considered a pre-existing condition/co-morbidity
You don’t know his body composition- percentage of muscle compared to percentage of fat. Muscle is heavier than fat. That’s why weight and height without looking at muscle mass is not an accurate way to calculate BMI. There are professional bodybuilders who would be clinically obese by calculating BMI with weight and height only.

this is good. take some of the ivermectin. sounds like your body is on the mend but could use the help.

The hospital ain’t gonna give me that, lol.
