So my wife developed all the covid symptoms (fever, chills, bodyaches, and the worst headache she says she ever had).
Took ivermectin at 9:30PM.
Woke up 80% better, and now (about noon) 90% normal.
Wow.
Well, now a sudden and startling turn for the worse:
After a day of improvement after the first dose of ivermectin, my wife rapidly worsened throughout the day yesterday, until by 2:30am, I was awakened by her intermittently gasping for breath, and in obvious pain and discomfort, chest pain, and said it felt like her airway was only at 50% open.
Not wanting to lose my wife, but also not wanting to put her on a ventilator except as a last resort when all other options have failed (as I mentioned, the hospital I would have to take her to just made national news for trying to pull the plug on a ventilated covid patient, against the family’s directives, and the patient was also criminally malnourished), I decided to call her OBGYN at around 4-5am, and he actually picked up the phone!
He’s just about to retire, and although he’s Protestant, and eventually succuмbed to pressure to get Vaxed, he knows we’re very much against it, are trads, and he’s delivered 4 of our 7 children (God willing, he’ll deliver our 8th in June; my wife is currently pregnant). He once got in trouble for refusing to wear a mask in the maternity ward, and the witch nurses called the cops on him, and had him escorted off the property. He also said as very happy to recommend my wife taking ivermectin we had received from another doctor. The point being that he has a good amount of natural goodness and common sense.
Knowing we wanted to avoid the ER at all costs, he wrote my wife this prescription:
20mg prednisone (2pills/day with food for 7 days);
Albuterol inhaler (2 puffs, 2x/day);
Azithromycin (aka “Z-pak”): 2 pills on day 2, then 1 pill/day for days 2-5.
He did not insist on her coming in for appointment. Again, I can’t tell you how thankful we are that he picked up his phone in the very early morning. Had he not done so, I may have had to make a terrible decision, call a priest, then off to ER.
Well, none of the pharmacies here are open until 8am, and those were tough and worrisome hours, watching my wife struggle until I could go get the meds. But I finally did, and got back home. The Albuterol inhaler had immediate effect, but only temporary. Not opening the airway completely, but more than it was. Remains to be seen how the prednisone and Z-pak do, but we're hopeful.
She also has all the symptoms of pneumonia, and apparently there is something called covid-pneumonia, and I’m just a layman guessing here, but maybe that’s why the effectiveness of the ivermectin faded (i.e., it worked against the covid, but not against the pneumonia?).
Anyway, we’re hoping the inhaler will carry her through until the prednisone/Z-pak kick in, and meanwhile we are going in for an appointment with this good doctor in a few hours).
If any of you could offer prayers for her, I would never forget it. She is a much better woman than a bum like me deserved.
