Just a note on your vitamin and various pill regiment.
You should avoid antacids for the most part. Acid reflux is usually caused by not having enough acid in the stomach... I know, it’s backwards. Basically, because there’s not enough acid in your stomach, the food doesn’t breakdown properly which causes many issues. The low stomach acid also prohibits absorption of vitamins from food and pills/capsules, etc...
You can try apple cider vinegar for various benefits, but it can definitely help with acid reflux issues. Get braggs with the mother (it’s a brand and type).
Mix a table spoon with a glass or more of water. Drink it through a straw (to avoid getting it on your teeth too much). If you can’t stand the flavour (it’s vinegary and fermented apple tasting), add a squeeze of lemon.
Search for more information before you start, but do consider it.
You can also try pickle juice (and the pickles) to help balance your pH. Refrigerated Claussen pickles have a wonderful brine. I drink about 1/4 c. or less a day. I also use apple cider vinegar but sometimes I get tired of it so I use up my pickle juice. Also blend some George's Aloe Vera with the ACV for stomach issues...very healing. Also papaya tablets for acid reflux is very good...taste like candy. Lemon water is excellent for gastric issues. I put a drop or two of lemon oil under my tongue and then drink water. Switch to high quality virgin coconut oil for all oils. MCT are very healing. Also, no sugar...stevia is a great substitute. Most vegetarians are pretty healthy so that is a plus. It sounds like you went through hell...hope you are able to completely heal. God bless your family.
Also find a foot reflexology chart and find the spots on the bottom of your feet that are sore and massage. It is a WONDERFUL non-invasive healing technique that works wonders.
It has been suggested that pepcid may actually help protect one against catching the CCP flu. Possibly helpful I believe is how it was worded in the study I saw. Sorry, was awhile back and don't have a link.
Thanks. that's very useful info. I have certainly heard how good for you cider vinegar can be, but I didn't know it works for reflux.
In this case the antacids were for my burning esophagus and throat due to the constant reflux connected with the disease. I don't normally have any gastric issues.
Low stomach acid (hydrochloric acid) is often caused by lack of salt (sodium chloride).
As you don't eat meat, you could be lacking magnesium, K2 and B vitamins. Really, you should get your blood checked rather than guessing. But bear in mind that the "normal minimum" tends to be lower than you actually need for a healthy immune system so aim for the highest levels.
None of your symptoms seem to be related to Covid. My symptoms were fever, myalgia (muscle aches), joint aches, headache, slightly runny nose, lack of energy, loss of taste for a week and a slight cough for two weeks. I did not have any noticeable breathing problems, however, and I had no loss of appetite (but had to add chilli powder to everything because of loss of taste!)
The symptoms of SARS-2 coronavirus are very variable, I think they depend on how ACE2 receptors are distributed in an individual. Lots of people have GI issues and lots of people have breathing difficulties.
I had quite a few of the many listed possible symptoms (I know this is an NHS list)
I supplement magnesium (separate tablet) , and K2 and B vitamins in my multivitamins. I know they may be less bioavailable, but I don't think I am at all deficient these days, although, maybe I used to be before I started paying attention.
Next time this happens, (and I hope it doesn't), I'd suggest taking Ivermectin. I did after I got spiked by a recently injected friend and got better instantly. My symptoms weren't nearly as bad as yours, but I clearly had an immune response to an injected person.
