Hey guys I posted the other day about my dad being extremely sick. We are still in the hospital and I’ve been able to be with his this entire time as he was testing negative. They have tested him FOUR times. Only tested for the flu once. Why are they testing so much? To get what they want?? Well today, they got what they wanted and it came back positive. Up until this point they have been treating him for bacterial infection and have said he’s improving. I asked if their new “treatment plan” included remdisivir and they said yes. I immediately told them absolutely not, we are declining treatment. They are giving steroids but I’m freaking out. If I leave this room, I am not allowed to come back now thought I’ve been allowed to come and go freely for 4 days.
HELP. I don’t know what to do. Do I take him out of here?? He’s still receiving antibiotics which have helped and he needs but I am NOT playing these Covid games. If a patient tests negative 3 times, (4 if you count the missing test) WHY ARE YOU STILL TESTING???? What do I do?? He needs oxygen and antibiotics.
Sidenote: Steroid given was decadron. Any info on this would be good too
I authored that post. I also did an earlier one about archiving, because after the treatment saved my life, the doctor who recommended it along with a bunch of testimonial videos from his grateful patients, got a cease and desist letter and the info was scrubbed off the internet. The resources listed on that page are the only ones I know about, when previously I had a few dozen to refer people to. The stuff works, and it's dirt cheap even compared to a serving of jello and a napkin from the hospital. I didn't have pneumonia, but I had very bad covid, and it brought me back.
I also have a cousin who took his wife to the hospital with covid and trouble breathing. She was there about 7 days without a visit allowed from her husband or kids. She made it out alive, even with remdesivir, but she didn't enjoy the experience at all, and witnessed a number of people in the same ward who left, but to the morgue instead of going back home. I don't know what to tell you other than his chances are probably better off at home. I know that if I expected to die, it'd be more pleasant at home than in an iso ward. Obviously your situation is unique, you know your dad better than anyone here, and you're there. Pray, and do all you can. I'll send my prayers your way, too.
Thank you for this. I’m calling his primary physician first thing tomorrow morning to have him review and potentially prescribe medication for home treatment. He’s been a good doc so far through all of “Covid” for his patient so I’m counting on him to come through for my dad.
