This is just a forewarning to anyone I talked to at the OSTA Meet in Lima last Friday... I have come down with COVID. Even after taking all of the shots, follow-ups and boosters.

As close as I can figure I may have caught it at Lima. Started feeling poorly Sunday evening and by Monday was running a 102 temp. Then Tues and Wednesday temp went to 102.8.
My temp is normally only 97.6, instead of the normal 98.6. I started drinking about 3 gallons of water a day, taking an extra 8,000mg of vit C, and increased vit D3 by 10,000 to 15,000 IU, and 1,000mg of Tylenol 4 or 5 times a day.

Still struggling to feel good temp seems to have leveled out at 99.1 to 99.8. The Dr. has started me on Paxlovid. So, hope it will help.

Just wanted to let everyone know and watching if you start feeling fever or congestion in chest.

Hope you get it under control. Be careful on that Tylenol dose. Anything beyond 4000mg per day can mess with the kidneys !

Hate to say it, but it’ll be worse for you every time you get it. Your immune system is compromised from the vax and boosters…and this info came straight from a Docs mouth to my wife. She buckled and I refused. Hope you get better.

Everyone's immune system is singular,..now saying that it' s not suggesting you are more prone accepting what you have realized! Did you have the covid affirmation?
If so ,have you done the vax previous, complemented with boosters?,.I realize I'm pushing something not so much acceptable here,.but there is,was questionable theory.

My thoughts,..how would one/could assume one has ( covid)? considering the affects of such mirrors so closely with what we have given over time as a fall cold?

Take care Actor. Catching anything early in it's progression should help reduce symptoms. Heal up, there's muskrat to be caught soon

Caught the big C twice, First time was a fairly stout case of flu symptoms, second time wasn't as bad as the rotten feelings I got after the jab. I felt worse after each jab, 3 and never again.
I have many Boones Farm, MD2020 hangovers far worse than the virus...

Theres a few people with the crud here and there at work. I think its important to stay active. Try to take long walks or whatever you can do. I laid around and I think it made it worse.

I had it bad and got Regeneron Infusion after the fact. I highly recommend it if your Doc says its available. I went from not being able to eat for days to stopping at Cracker Barrel on the way home from the shot.

When Biden got into office it became harder to get and was being pushed less than the vaccines they were pushing.

It helped everyone in the medical unit I was in and the nurses giving the shots swore up and down by it and promised me I'd feel better in a couple of hours. They were right.

I have a friend whos a Dr, He told me when I had covid early in 2020 to monitor my blood oxygen level with a oximeter (little clip you put on your finger). He said if your level falls below 90% its time to let get medical attention. Get well soon!!

Then why do people that get the shots get covid again, more than people that don't get the shots? Seems that's the way its been.

Midlander,

Maybe you should tell us your medical credentials.

Add 15-50 mg of zinc to your supplements. It make the vit D more absorbable by the body.
