Im unsure about everything thats going on as most of you probably are. And the reason I'm posting this here, is to be frank the pdw is full of good people but can have the tendency to come off dickish. Im pretty certain me and a roomate have long covid. He talked to his aunt, (trump supporter) and she asked him to please go out and get the vax. I'm honestly terrified. Symptoms have lasted months. We have been sitting here talking about it, weighing the pros and cons. Before I get one or really really consider it, im going to dig for info. Anyone here please help me out honestly with a decision. My main reason for considering it now is the fact that, the government doesn't want us to live. They want a population they can control, so its an easy win for them. My 2nd reason being, Trump said he recommends it. I need help. This is a decision that can't be undone. Please spare me the dickhead remarks. Thanks.
I have been taking zinc, quercetin, vit d, vit c. I jusg cant shake this. It has been a few months. And my buddy has had it way worse. He gets real serious brain fog, chest pains, blurred vision, diarrhea, palpitations, feeling of frog in his throat, cough, severe anxiety ect. Hes been to the hospital like me and they have seriously done nothing for us. Blood work chest xrays thousands of dollars in doctor bills between us yet no true diagnosis.
This is terrible, fren. And I'm not a doctor, but a couple of things -- I have heard that zinc has to have some copper with it. Just a little, it functions better that way. Solaray is a brand that makes a version with copper. And make sure your Vitamin D is D 3 WITH K 2.
I'm not sure if those tweaks will make a big difference, but maybe they will. And I think I've heard that ivermectin can help with the long haul? Not sure but I thought so, so maybe see if you can get some of that. Try to find a Functional Medicine Doctor in your area. They are fully qualified MDs, but have a better understanding of the body and it's mechanisms than most doctors. They also make use of supplements when they can, rather than pharmaceutical drugs.
If nothing else, go with a call to America's Frontline Doctors or even the FLCCC doctors (Frontline Covid Critical Care.) They ought to be able to fix you up. Best wishes to you and I'll say a prayer for you right now.
Zinc and copper compete for absorption, so too much zinc can lead to copper deficiency, which causes other health problems.
Thanks for explaining that. Do you know what other health problems it causes, by any chance and also, what dose of zinc would be considered appropriate? Thanks.
Copper is used to build your body’s connective tissue and hair.

There is also credible evidence that copper deficiency plus excess manganese leads to prion disease.

Yikes! Thanks. The question always is, how much is too much or not enough. Very interesting. I didn't know about the prion disease issue. I have heard that not enough copper can actually cause schizophrenia, which is also fascinating and tragic. Thanks for the info, fren.
Thank you honestly. Im ready for anything. Just want to feel normal again.
When was the last time you went outside for a walk on a sunny day? Staying indoors will make everything worse.
How about having your home tested for mold or have duct work cleaned. My son has bad allergies and I ended up removing 3 year old carpet and putting in laminate floors throughout the house. He hasn't had any allergy issues since (4+ years now)
