Long and short: Wife got it from a co-worker. On the first day she presented symptoms, ( slight fever, body aches) we started her on the I+Mask protocol with IVM prescription. Within a day, she felt noticeably better, just had a cough and stuffy/running nose, phlegm in the throat. She took the IVM for 5 days. One week out, she's essentially perfectly fine. Never lost smell or taste.
I was put on prophalactic IVM and had no symptoms. The Melatonin had an opposite effect on me, and once I started taking it before bed, I would toss and turn all night, wide awake. Fast forward to yesterday, I had a slight fever, lost smell and taste. Started immediately on IVM for 3 days straight. Didn't take the melatonin last night and slept much better. Feel better today. Temp is 98.2.
Just wanted a post out here of actual FACTS, about someone going through it. I have a stuffy nose, shit in my throat, and a bit of coughing here and there. Drinking plenty of water.
Will keep you all informed.
This basically covers what I've heard from people who have gotten sick.
The severity of the symptoms is on par with the flu, most people get next to nothing..... and the rest get mild symptoms to more shitty symptoms.
The common thread among everyone at work is that they were more tired than when they had any other virus and that as soon as the fever broke they were fine.
