I’m a microbiologist and I tested positive today. 14 days ago, our coworker tested positive so we self monitor and I tested negative.
A week later I felt body sore and tired but I have been overworked so much and I stripped my horse’s stall so I thought it was that. I did have a bit of sputum come up last week but I tested it and it was normal flora. I also felt feverish and agitated but I self monitored and my temp was normal. Did have a bit of anorexia but I still ate, just not as much and I was thirsty. I felt fine Monday.
Wednesday I lost my sense of smell. I didn’t notice it until Saturday. I can taste but no smell. I put a bottle of Wild Turkey 101 up to my nose and breathe deeply. Nothing. Even the fumes from the liquor were not there.
I can’t smell the air, my horse, coffee, alfalfa hay, my man, my cat, stinky laundry, detergent, soap. Nothing at all. It’s so weird.
I can taste but not garlic. That’s really weird. My coworker lost her smell/taste but she said that it will return.
Now I get 10 days off and I have PTO saved up so I’m going to post anything that turns up and to answer questions.
Update: I put Castro oil in my nose with a qtip and I can smell cloves!!! Idk of the oil is working or if my smell is just coming back. I’m taking the vitamins that was recommended too.
Fingers crossed for you, fren. Wife is an ER doc working in central Florida (home is in TN). They're getting swamped. They moved her to the ICU, and today they hit capacity. This was her text to me this afternoon:
She's scheduled to work in S. Texas later this week. When she worked Aug-Oct at the same hospital in FL in the ICU, all but one patient died of Covid... it took all of the 3+ weeks of being on vents before the succumbed.
They did during one of the early waves but found no benefit when patients were already so gravely ill and on the vent.
That's apparently one advantage Ivermectin / Doxycycline / Zinc has over HCQ/AZT/Zinc: It's effectiveness from prophylactic (you won't even catch it in the first place if you're on it) to early stage quick recovery (within a day or 2 supposedly!) to even those with already advanced symptoms (but not so much - once the viral replication hits overdrive, your body just gets absolutely caned, from what I gather..)
Therefore, if ALL these chronically unwell people were aware of and had access to Ivermectin treatment before they even had any symptoms, NONE of them would likely have even needed to attend the hospital, let alone be intubated and really be in the shit.
This may be the biggest criminal conspiracy of our age and we have a chance to right the ship before it sinks with us all onboard. Spread the word and anyone with personal experience of these treatments PLEASE SHARE your experiences far and wide...
Shadilay, Pedes!
