Thank you all for your prayers. My mom’s fever broke about 5 days after starting IVM along with her vitamins. Unfortunately, my dad also caught it, but he started IVM early, and has a low fever currently. They’re both extremely tired, and sleep most of the day and night. Thankfully, they have neighbors nearby who have been helping to cook meals for them, even tho their appetites are basically nonexistent. Again, thank you for the prayers and well-wishes…if you wouldn’t mind to continue to lift them up in prayer, it would mean the world to my family and I.

I couldn't not sleep. Hit the floor walking trying to stay awake. I was awake 2-3 hours a day for 10 days. It was another week before I could stay awake for more than 8 hours.
That said, I slept in a reclined position to help with drainage & decide if a Zpack is worth it (just might be). Antibiotics destroyed my gut when I saw a NP who gave them to me 4 times per year for nasal infections.
I ended up having to sleep on my side with my back against the wall rotating every 2-3 hours. My oxygen got down to 84. Only after the Z-pack did my breathing improve.
