Disclaimer: This should not replace any medical advice you get from a professional you trust, just my experience taking care of someone who got covid pneumonia.

My relative got covid pneumonia and was recommended to sleep upright by a doctor found on FLCCC. If possible have a "zero-gravity" chair or recliner to try to get some sleep that way. 

Also to do something called the prone position (as explained by a doctor here: https://youtu.be/z2VaS-exhlg) where you get on your knees, bend down, place your hands in a way that you can rest your forehead on them which allows your back to form a 45 degree angle and get things moving inside your lungs. It is important that all parts of your lungs (alveoli) get oxygen. I think part of the reason why your wife got some temporary relief using the albuterol inhaler because it helped those parts of the lungs get some oxygen but then the lung secretions resettle and blocks the alveoli again.

Do you have an oxygen saturation meter? also known as an oximeter. If not, buy or borrow one so you can monitor. Everyone is different so you might have to do more research on what the minimum oxygen saturation percentage is for your wife. If it goes below that often/consistently you may have to go to the hospital.

Also, look into cistus tea. Diet is important, bone broth and things like that. Lots of tea, licorice root, cinnamon, lemon ginger. 

Sean, your dear wife is in our prayers. May she and baby come safely through this.

St Gerard Majella, intercede for them. 
St Domenic of Silos, pray for them.

It looks like in your case your wife ended with the same treatment as my friend: Ivermectin, Z-pack and Prednisone, the ivermectin by itself did not do it.

One of the things not widely known is that Ivermectin works with zinc.  You need to add zinc into the mix.

Praying for all 

Hope she is improving

Hello FC-

Yes, she is much better than she was: Blood oxygen normal; air passage about 99%; coughs more productive; no chest pain (except when coughing); fever gone.

Very strange how quickly she improves and declines, but it feels like she is out of the woods now.

Heartfelt thanks to you and all who prayed; we’ll be returning the favor.

Hello Sean,
Just read your wife's story.  My heart went out to you.  I'm so pleased she is feeling better, Sean. Just said a prayer to Blessed Mother for you and your wife.
