Please pray for my Dad
🧘Mental/Physical Health 🏋🏼♂️
Just found out my sister took him to the hospital.
-
His name is David
-
He has Edema, shortness of breath and a low oxygen saturation.
-
He is unvaxxed.
-
He is a heavy smoker.
-
He just traveled to see his parents.
-
I am assuming its either pneumonia or heart failure.
- Edit 1: He is getting a CAT scan right now.
- Edit 2. found a mass inside his lungs. He is admitted
- Edit 3. It's stage 4 lung cancer.
Congestive heart failure, give him some Lasix, watch the salt intake, he will be fine. It is very common and not related to vaccines. Praying for a full recovery
I disagree with the idea of giving Lasix and low salt. But thank you for your care and intensions to help heal him.
Lasix is one of the worse things you could give to someone, salt does not damage the heart nor does it increase blood pressure. These are ideas created by the pharmaceutical companies.
A high-salt, beef only diet without any medication would be a better approach for issues of blood pressure, blood sugar, cancer or metabolic syndrome.
Usually needs more potassium.

Seconded
K and nattokinase unless already on statins
Lasix causes many more problems than it helps. Personal experience.
LASIK is important at the start. The check out Linus Pauling. Artery cleaning.
Retained fluid raises your blood pressure.
Low potassium:sodium ratio retains fluid. Eating too much salt fucks the ratio, makes you retain fluids, gives you high blood pressure.
Lasix is a quick fix and does reduce fluids and does lower you blood pressure BUT it depletes your electrolytes and can give you legs cramps from hell where you can't even walk. It's best to fix the electrolyte balance --- usually involves more potassium.
You don't reatin fluid on a meat based diet. You do on a high fiber diet.
high sodium = retain fluid
Depends on the person/age
When I was a kid I could eat salty snacks all day long --- no problem.
