My 84 y/o Mom just tested positive (with a home test). She lives with my sis and b-i-l so they will do what they can for her. Sis reached out to Mom's PCP and will ask about monoclonal antibodies. Sis will also reach out to Dr Mollie James to hopefully get the GOOD stuff (IVM, HCQ, etc).
Mom can be very stubborn but is a pure blood.
Your prayers would be welcome and very much appreciated. She seems fine, so I hope it is a mild case.
God Bless you all.
What symptoms does she have currently? The home test kits (if it's anything like ours in my country) are notoriously crap. Go by the symptoms, a friends whole family just tested positive with nobody feeling the slightest bit unwell?
Thank you. She now has a low-grade fever but it was higher at the beginning of the week, a bit of a cough (tickle in the back of the throat type), bowel issue, and tiredness. That combination of symptoms was the impetus for the test.
Does anyone ever think they have a cold anymore? People have colds treat it like it's a cold! If it gets progressively worse then seek medical help from a trusted Doctor!
Thanks. This could very well be but fevers usually don't accompany a cold.
Well the nasal iodine will stop dead anything in the nose, try and gargle some as well for the throat. Decent vit D and lots of vit C. I'm sure she will be fine, try not to let her worry as that can add stress to the immune system as well. It could just be a common influenza/cold of course, despite nobody saying, they must also be around this time of year right.
Obviously none of this is medical advice and I certainly am not a Dr.
God Bless and prayers for her.
Thank you.
