My husband and I have covid. We’ve been taking the paste and I do believe it’s kept us from getting worse especially when it comes to the respiratory part of the illness. My husband has been on disability for 15 years due to encephalitis from a mosquito. He has mainly suffered fatigue and bad headaches during that time. He’s been sick with covid for over a week now and I’m reading it can get worse in week two for some people. I always figured if he got it, it would be a rough one getting over it. Well, here’s the thing. Last night he started getting mildly confused and some of his words were off...not a lot, but it reminded me of 15 years ago, except back then he had 105 degree temp and I rushed him to the hospital. He has not suffered from a fever with covid but he really doesn’t get them anymore since his bout 15 years ago. I don’t trust hospitals and he can’t get an MRI anyway due to some lead in his neck from a disc surgery. He takes a lot of CBD daily for inflammation and THC for pain already. I’m wondering if anyone out there has gotten through the confusion part of the virus without going to the hospital? I know they won’t let me stay with him as I tested positive yesterday. Hospitals around here all do the ventilator/remdesivir protocol. He’s sleeping now and appeared to sleep well all night. We called frontline doctors two days ago and are awaiting a script. This is a new development though. Please pray for wisdom and guidance and healing. I believe we have better meds than the hospital will administer but I’m also not a doctor. I don’t want to make a mistake that will cost him either his life or his mental capacity. Please don’t judge me for not taking him last night. This is a real war and the hospitals are an enemy to most of us. I need to know some real guidance and prayer. I know he’s a unique case. Thanks in advance.

How long have you had covid symptoms? Think back to the very first symptom. 7-8 days is all the longer the live virus is really in your system. After that it's your bodies immune system going nuts. Look up cytokine storm.
7-8 days is when the respiratory phase starts and things can go south fast.
On day 8-9 my pulse ox started to drop. I called my family dr and explained I had covid, and was on day 9 (confirmed by my diary). He called me in a tapered dose of prednisone. The mood swings were terrible but by the 3rd day my o2 stats started coming back up.
Note, you do not want to be taking steroids if you still have an active infection. (typically earlier than day 8).
Follow the protocol from FLCCC ( https://covid19criticalcare.com/covid-19-protocols/math-plus-protocol/ )
NAC if you can get some can also help rid the body of toxins and settle the cytokine storm.
*I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice. This is just my own experiences from having covid and recovery. I've also done a ton of reading on it.
**Don't hold your breath on Frontline Docs. They never got back to me while I was sick. I ended up with a refund. They were just too busy. Look into push health. Explain your situation and symptoms and they will pair you with a Dr.
