I'm sick as shit, cousin tested positive for it even though those tests are sketchy,
Took ivermectin 2 nights in a row, 12mg, not noticing much of a difference, maybe even getting worse... any insights or advice?
Thanks.

Ivermectin needs a loading dose. If you take it every week to prevent or reduce infection, you start off with an extra dose. Since you did not start with ivermectin already in your body, it will take a little more time to become effective.
The sooner that you start taking it, the less time that it takes before you start feeling better. I would take the drugs a little longer after feeling better to avoid rebound. Also, multiple antivirals should be used. It will speed up the process, and eliminate the risk of creating an ivermectin resistant strain of covid. Fluvoxamine is nice because it also treats long covid. Personally, I have combined ivermectin, fluvoxamine, and nitazoxanide. There might be a risk with mixing those 3, but I would rather get the potential bioweapon out of my system sooner. How long you take these drugs depends on how many of them you combine. If you take all 3, then you should not need more than 5 days if you started taking them within the first 2 days of symptoms.
If you have had symptoms for more than 3 days before taking these, then you are technically outside of early treatment. So you should have these drugs before you need them.
Having a working immune system helps, so be sure that your vitamin levels are good. D was found to reduce severity of hospitalization, and C (but not too much) seems to help in general.
Because I was prepared, and had a tiny amount of ivermectin in my body from a dose 2.5 weeks before, and already had good vitamin levels (confirmed with labs), I took the drugs within 12 hours of the symptoms, and woke up without any symptoms the following morning.
The early treatment protocol that I recommend is here: https://covid19criticalcare.com/covid-19-protocols/i-care-early-covid-treatment/
When you have time, use your own doctor, or something like https://www.walkinlab.com/ or https://requestatest.com/ to check your vitamin levels, and anything else that might help you. I think that you want to get your 25-hydroxyvitamin D to 55-60 ng/mL. It takes months to get it that high (unless you take a few huge doses), and the less sun that you get, and further from the equator you are, the longer it will take to get up to that level. K2, or fermented foods like sauerkraut and natto, should be added with D3 to avoid sending calcium to the wrong place.
