I had a mild case of COVID. 3 days. My medical care provider made sure she prescribed medications to have on hand if we got it. A couple of those medications were not allowed in New Mexico so she had to order them from a Texas compounding pharmacy. Plus she recommended several herbs to dispel any “spike proteins”. She lost her job with the corporate medical company because she was spending too much patients.
When I was in Hagerstown we were pretty sure I had COVID. It went straight for my lungs and had me a little nervous for one night as my Ivermectin was missing and I knew I couldn't get more until I got home. The next morning I called my pharmacist and she said to take 50,,000K units a day for three days. I only took that much for one day but it went away fast. It was about as bad as a cold with lung congestion while it lasted. I normally take 5000K units a day of vitamin D. It was snowing there and I don't do as well in extremely cold weather and that may have amplified it to where it was even noticeable. it didn't keep me down.
I did not get Covid. I never wore a mask. I take Vitamin D once or twice per week at 1,000 or 2,000 IU. That said, I am outdoors a lot, sometimes 8 hrs per day, and do not wear sunscreen or a hat. I have been tested several times by physician and my D has never tested low.
Last time I had it checked, my level was 96 taking 5k + k2 the last 3 years. How much you need depends on your weight, and I weigh 115. Neither myself or my husband has had Covid. Or whatever that was. :)
When you get your Vitamin D level tested, the resulting number tells you if you have a deficiency or are sufficient. I get tested at Quest Diagnostics, and anyone else can also do that on their own, without a doctor's order. I buy the test at Ultalabtests.com. Here is what it says with my results: "Therapy is based on measurement of Total 25-OHD, with levels <20 ng/mL indicative of Vitamin D deficiency, while levels between 20 ng/mL and 30 ng/mL suggest insufficiency. Optimal levels are > or = 30 ng/mL." I've read, however, that 30 is not nearly sufficient. 50 or higher is optimal.
After following autism/vaccine link online for 20 years, I have personally resolved my own curiosity that most diseases are the result(s) of vitamin/mineral deficiencies.
African children would be far better off with Vitamin A than measles vaccinations.
I had until a couple years ago been taking 10K of Vit D as well as k2.... then I cut back to a little more than 5K plus K2.....ALSO, at the beginning of the 'demic, based on a couple of things I'd read about Quercetin and Zinc, started that.....every day without fail since Mar 2020.....no Covid....no illness at all, since then; knock on wood....I'll be 77 in a week; more knocking on wood lol
I messed up and tapped the wrong poll.😂 I never got the covid thing and I take 1000 units a day. I live in Arizona. Strangely, I got pretty sick the summer BEFORE the thing. Sicker than I'd ever been with coughing, shortness of breath etc. I finally went to urgent care and they figured I had walking pneumonia. I got over it. My husband jokes that I was "Patient Zero." I think it was all BS because the tests were bogus. People were testing left and right, so naturally they tested positive at some point. 😂
I'm enough of a hypochondriac that I'm always looking for symptoms and correlations, but I had to give up on this thing. We'll simply never know if there's a "virus" or not. It's a permanent secret.
The simplest conclusion is that the whole mess is stagecraft. The vast majority of modern "crises" are pure stagecraft, so that's the default hypothesis.
Most people are actually really shocked when I tell them that I don't test myself every time I get a runny nose (esp during spring). My question for them is "what would I do differently if I found out my snotty nose was Covid?" Of course, they say, "Call your doctor." Me: "I don't have a doctor, haven't been to an allopathic doc in over 7 years." I guess if I got really sick and was on my death bed, then I may do something differently. Once my daughter told someone, "She had covid, but she doesn't get tested." I was like, "Okay, I had it, or I didn't. I am fine now." I did have a fever for a couple of days.
Dr prescribed D3/K2, did get Covid then Dr said to double the amount D3/K2, take melatonin, zinc, take IVM(which worked w/in an hour to clear my lungs and was vacuuming in 2 hrs. Amazing drug, no wonder they didn't want people taking it.
Have a wonderful group of Doctors, they do NOT vaccinate anyone w/any vaccines! They are Lyme Literate MD's(LLMD) They're in the states and prescribed IVM before this Fascist state started shutting down that option. So had IVM on hand, prior to contracting C19. Did buy this from a compound pharmacy, don't think they had their hands tied like the Big Corp. Pharmacies.
I was taking 10,000 IU of D3 + K2/day, but recently cut back to 5000 as I don't really know if it makes a difference. I was taking 10,000 IU when I got covid (or whatever it is) and was sick, with a bad cough for 3 weeks. I got it the day after accompanying someone to the ER, wearing a mask. Don't know why. Previously, I had marched in a protest of at least 1000 people maskless and didn't get sick at all. I generally don't get sick, had the flu sometime in the 80's, take public transportation, handing out cough drops to people around me coughing, but haven't caught anything myself. Currently reading Bechamp or Pasteur so according to the book, there's nothing to catch.
Didn't take the 2nd poll since I can't say I ever caught the C word.
I came down with something unusual in December of 2019.
I believe that I picked up an influenza-like-thing in either in Florida, or in Nevada or Vancouver while in transit from Florida.
Whatever it was did not immediately manifest.
3 or 4 days after getting home, whatever it was came at me like a tornado with zero warning. Totally knocked me on my butt in mid-December. Felt like I was dying. (And exploding from all orifices.)
I threw everything I had in stock at it including massive doses of D on Day 1 and 2. I could keep nothing inside so am unsure whether the vitamins I ingested actually got absorbed.
My son entered my "sick room" on the 2nd day and spent less than 15 minutes with me. He'd come to check on me after mum called him in a panic. I warned him not to get close but he ignored my admonition and hugged me.
Felt 95% well on the 4th day of that initial 100% physical incapacitation which did indeed scare me. (A "novel virus " had not yet hit "mainstream news" at that time... 😉)
My exposed son became ill shortly after Christmas of 2019. (No one else in my family "got sick" during the holidays.)
His symptoms were nowhere near as severe, but he was 22 at the time. (No clinic. No test. No diagnosis.)
This undiagnosed, unlabelled thing attacked my body a full month prior to the first diagnosed case of "Covid" in North America. I was 61 at the time.
I caught some thing in 2021. Didn't "test". (Don't do doctors.) Symptoms were not severe and I recovered quickly using the same protocol.
The last thing came on in late 2022. It came, and it went completely undiagnosed. Undetected by B.C. Health Authorities. (I flew under my country's medical data gathering system 3 times between late 2019 and today. As I believe MANY of us did?)
Anyway, did the same as I'd previously done however during that last bout, 2 days into feeling unwell: I got my hands on ivermectin liquid for horses.
Supplemented with the vitamins an additional 4x #00 gel caps filled with liquid ivermectin. 2x.
24 hours later I felt perfectly fine so I discontinued everything.
FYI: I think I may ingest enough fresh food for my body to receive adequate vitamin nourishment? I do also spend time outdoors, during peak sun, in all seasons.
Pop supplements very sporadically, as I find it difficult to swallow any type of pills.
My Kitchen Sink "thing" wacker: D3 + K2, zinc, oil of oregano, magnesium, l-lysine & ascorbic acid and my own functioning immune system.
Have probably "acquired immunity" by now, but just speculation...
I stock a cache of other vitamins though, "just in case."
I take maybe 400 IU several times a week in the winter. I don't take huge amounts of any vitamins. I am also concerned with the formation of kidney stones and other kidney damage that can result from too much D. I am 73 and seldom get sick. I do take sublingual B12 several times a week and magnesium. I am short and my body tells me when to reject stuff.
I took the home tests several times for myself and son, they came out the same, negative for me and positive for son, and we both had same symptoms! I took him to the doctor and he tested positive at the doctor's office. We were both given PAXLOVID prescription which we did not take since we remained mild cases until it was over
I take vitamin D sporadically, and I try to remember to put mushrooms in the sun for a half hour before cooking them, since I recently learned they produce a lot of Vitamin D if you do that. I came down with a mild case of covid that lasted about 2 days in 2021, and I suspect I may have gotten it from a friend who was vaccinated and shedding. She came down with covid twice AFTER being vaccinated.
After I wash them, I turn them gill side up to set the plate or the strainer they’re resting on in the sun while I’m preparing whatever else will go with with them. Also, crushing the fresh garlic and letting it sit for 15 or 20 minutes before adding it to whatever makes a greater level of allicin which yields the main health benefits from garlic.
Thank you for all you’ve done to help keep people informed and connected.
I took 10K of D w/ K2 throughout the pandemic and developed vitamin D toxicity. The symptoms were heart palpitations, extreme cramping, high blood pressure, anxiety, eye twitching. It has taken over a year to feel normal again. I healed myself by taking magnesium, cod liver oil, CoQ10 and eating Natto almost every day (I make my own). I no longer believe in supplementing vitamin D - I get mine from sun exposure and eating naturally vitamin D rich foods (not fortified). I did not get sick at all during the pandemic and also remained unvaxxed. So maybe the D kept me from getting a respiratory illness but it sure f#$%ed up my health in other ways. Just saying.
wow---thanks for the input. I take magnesium with my vit D. The piece I listed said that people were given 5 to 50k with no side affects, but that may have been more of a short term thing.
I normally take 5K a day, but as I recall back in 2019 I was doing 10K a day. I got covid way early - October of 2019. I remember because my mom was dying and I couldn't go see her because the cough I had was so bad I was wetting my pants. I had never had a cough like that. It was the only real symptom, it took 3 weeks to get over it so I could go visit my mom and by then she was almost gone. Then I went to Mexico in Feb 2020 and there was only one ATM in town, the line was very long at all times of the day to get $$. I have never heard so many people hacking out lungs! I tried to tell people back then covid was already around in October of 2019 and the covidiats screamed that could not be! And of course, now we know it was. I stayed on 10K a day for 3 years and now have gone down to 5K since I am in the sun so much (now that the snow has melted and spring is here!)
On April 8, 2020, the SF Gate ran an article stating researchers had considered covid to be circulating in California in the Fall of 2019, and suspected that was the reason the incidence of covid in CA was relatively low. I emailed a link for that article to 3 people. Two days later when I went to revisit that article, I got a message that there was no article. They took it down, I believe because it conflicted with the political aim of vilifying China, and countered the ongoing media fearmongering.
My daughter and her boys (aged 8 and 12 at the time) got really ill in late Feb/early March so I was taking care of the 5 year old and driving the 11 year old back and forth to school Doing the shopping and cleaning, etc. After a few days of this, she was able to get up and start doing things, but I went home and crashed. I was super-tired and it seemed even more than would seem normal---I was afraid I was going to get sick, but I slept and woke up feeling fine. I think she had the flu-covid-thing but many we know had it over Xmas 2019, as well. It's weird that these illnesses are so fresh in our minds because they made us be that way.

Yes, what the hell was that????
Do you mean you've never had your Vitamin D tested?
What does "level 96" mean? I am on learning curve

thanks Pepper!
You're very welcome. I bet your level is even higher than mine after taking 10k for all those years!
maybe....maybe I should get a test?
Thank you PepperJackson!
My doctor recently ordered labs including VitD since I have osteopenia
After following autism/vaccine link online for 20 years, I have personally resolved my own curiosity that most diseases are the result(s) of vitamin/mineral deficiencies.
African children would be far better off with Vitamin A than measles vaccinations.

agree. I should give an option: "It was all bullshit."
Good idea.

Most flus fly by me for years and I get a sniffle and wipe my nose and the end.
Fever and coughing are what prompted our home tests, otherwise like you I would blow my nose and move on.
I'm with you. I generally have said, "I don't know. I probably had it. If you say so."
"If you say so" is a great line.
Thanks.

Me, neither
That's wise.

thanks for the mushroom tip---I am really into shrooms (not the happy kind) and this makes sense.

I did finally get the Covid thing in November, but it was very mild and the only symptom I had was no sense of smell.
I took 10K of D w/ K2 throughout the pandemic and developed vitamin D toxicity. The symptoms were heart palpitations, extreme cramping, high blood pressure, anxiety, eye twitching. It has taken over a year to feel normal again. I healed myself by taking magnesium, cod liver oil, CoQ10 and eating Natto almost every day (I make my own).

What has VitK naturally?
Natto! Also soft cheeses like Brie.
Good news, I found D3 + K2 (Spring Valley brand) at Walmart that is soy-free!
Much appreciation for all your healthy tips, Amanita :o)
Oh, I avoid all soy bean products (due to the phytoestrogens). I'll try to find some organic soft cheese (I usually avoid dairy products too).
Thank you anyways ;^)
I've been reading that there is VitK in broccoli, kale, spinach, which I love.
Is there a good place to buy VitK supplement online? Can't find it at my supermarket
I avoid soy, as well.
