Do you know/think if it would help with simple illnesses? Sorethroats, flu, stomach problems, etc. Or is it mostly effective for more complex illnesses? Cancer, etc? Wondering if I should try it with this horrendous strep throat. BTW, big notice on UC Health web page re Covid in big bold letters. IVERMECTIN SHOULD NEVER BE USED TO TREAT COVID 19!

I haven't received an official diagnosis - had MRI but no lesions. Classic MS symptoms. I'm not sure if I have MS or maybe subclinical Brown-Séquard syndrome-like thing going on from a potential injury. Or maybe I'm having mini-strokes. But MS matches the best based on patients I've talked to with all of these.
God help me I have Kaiser. They're useless. They're the Walmart Auto Center mechanics of doctors who I basically think are glorified mechanics anyway. They're not scientists.
Anyway.
Ivermectin is the only thing I've been doing differently these days.
Could just be time healing an injury.
Impossible to say for sure because I don't even know for sure what the fucking problem is.
Every appointment I make no matter what kinda specialist I see they pretty much just go "oh maybe it's (insert rando diagnosis here)" after asking 2 questions total and then either tell me "nothing we can do" ... or they run a test and it's inconclusive so they give up basically immediately and say "come back when it gets worse here's some rando pills you don't want".
The "diagnosis" they have me half the time is just a fancy science name for the symptoms I've having. Not an actual fucking diagnosis of a condition, syndrome, injury, anything. Just "aphasia" or "neuropathy" YEEEAAAHHH I KNOOOOWWWW WHHHHHYYY THOUGH YOU EXPENSIVE USELESS FUCKS AREN'T YOU EVEN CURIOUS?!?!?
Sorry drives me fucking bananas. I don't care that we they don't know. Whatever I don't know either. It makes me crazy they can't be bothered to spend more than even 5 minutes in any single attempt at figuring it out.
Seem to be getting better and better all the time though.
Slowly. But hey that just gives me confidence it's not a rocketship and crash improvement like I've had before with these symptoms where I improve rapidly only to eventually loose all of it and end up worse.
Like I feel legitimately more alive. It's ... well it's great!
I can walk better. Fewer migraines. Left eye vision less blurry and returning to normal (normal being same as right side). Significantly decreased numbness on my left side. Breathing deeper.
Only thing it doesn't help with is THESE GODDAMN HICCUPS. I pray you don't have this symptom. Jesus Christ have mercy.
I'm hesitant to say it's the ivermectin just because I'm very conservative about adopting hypothesees... but I'm sure as hell NOT going to test it by stopping it either. It's too cheap. And I haven't gotten a cold since. Usually get 'em pretty frequently unfortunately otherwise.
Plus I got a bunch of rare cancers and non smoking-related lung cancer in my family so it just makes extra sense to keep taking it.
Boy I sure can understand your frustration with doctors. It's like they hand out degrees like candy on Halloween. I went to a specialist once with my daughter and I interrupted to ask a question. After she answered she started her script again from the beginning. I was incredulous! We never went back. I had 5 kids and myself (hubby not on board) and I always enjoyed experimenting effective alternative remedies for absolutely everything. I was in my glory when the internet became available and I had resources at my fingertips rather than having to buy study resources.
After bouts of shingles and gout hubby is on board and religiously takes his vitamins I give him every day. His health is improving. He won't take IVM tho even though I took him off verapamil because it interfered with his ability to take NAC/lysine/IVM(if needed). Drug interactions are so important to know about. One of the best things we all started taking beside IVM was NAC.
In homeopathics you treat a symptom picture...not a disease by name. It is a modality that requires a lot of study and understanding but certainly has its' strength as a treatment. For instance my daughter was successfully treated for Lyme disease by a naturopath by using a nosode made from the spirochete that causes Lyme. Anyway never stop seeking answers to your issues.
You always know your own body better than anyone and in the meantime we can all toast to our current increased knowledge of ivermectin and a special toast to horses and vet supplies that allowed us to acquire it against the government's wishes! God bless you and may He increase your knowledge and awareness of your situation. He always revealed to me what I needed to know when I needed to know it and I am eternally grateful for that!
