If they try Ivermectin or Quinine they MUST use a continuous glucose monitor (like Dexcom).
In my experience at some point using those Antiparasitics will strongly decrease the need for insulin for a time even after taking the stuff.
Has happened to me 6 times.
I have had a few rounds as a T1D with these incredibly painful bumps on my skin. I found a larger than recommended dose of Zinc (I was taking 250mg two to four times per day before I realize how dangerous that can be) with Quinine for about a week to make sure that cold symptoms didn't return (always knocked out the cold/Covid in about 24 hours). My skin cleared up when I had those spots.
(I now include copper to help when taking consistent large dosages & their stomach may hate them with that much zinc.)
I just assumed I had a zinc deficiency & this helped it. I have also found that the healing goes much quicker if I launder all my bedding including pillows every single day.
If they don't plan to go anywhere Zinc Cream (baby butt ointment) has helped accelerate the healing process for these diabetic skin spots.
If they take more than 50mg of zinc daily, they should consider tossing some copper into the mix too.
It amazed me how the Quinine & Zinc started to clear things up after taking it for about a week, it took 2-3 of consistent use.
Quinine is an ionophore for zinc (think of it behaving like insulin does for sugar, allowing the cell to use the Zinc)
He needs to do his own research on large dosages of zinc, and how to balance that with copper potentially. I personally have not seen any of the side effects of zinc poisoning & that could be due to a deficiency OR that Quinine allowed the uptake by my cells to increase. As a T1D I figure it is like having too much sugar in my blood that can't get into my cells cause issues, possibly the same thing happens with larger quantities of zinc, though I really don't know.
I hope they figure it out. Having those sores all over the body sucks.
I did not take the clot shots, and these skin issues crop up more frequently now than they ever have in my life (once in my 20s & now about once per year since COVID became the popular scare tactic). Could be my body is using reserves of zinc more frequently now & it is depleted more frequently. 🤷
