SITREP : on potential battle w/ covid
purpose : to help facilitate peace of mind w/ anons
Three days ago I was in close contact w a fren who already had covid once ( almost a nonevent for her) , took the J&J almost 6 months ago and during her most recent visit was not feeling well. Reminded her when she had the coof about 7 months ago. She was still welcomed in my home.
Two days ago , I traveled and had an 1.5 hour meeting w/ an unmasked individual and then visited an establishment that is frequented by veterans of overseas wars . None of them were masked as well. I was gifted with a cerveza by the acting CO and gave him a financial donation for the cause. He was triple vaxxed : ( but will not hold that against him. I was at that potential hot spot for approx 1.0 hours.
Yesterday I reported here that I woke up with a scratchy throat that would not go away, mild chills and mild muscle aches as well. Not 100% certain that I had developed the coof but did not throw caution to the wind. About 2.5 hours after getting up yesterday, I started self treatment. 500 mg of quercetin w/ 1400mg of vit C + 100 mg Zinc. I get plenty of vit D in my normal diet. Approx 30 mins after starting treatment scratchy throat was almost completely gone but mild chills and mild muscle aches persisted. No other supplements were taken that entire day until just before bed I switched things up and took 350mg EGCG + 100 mg Zinc. At that time scratch throat was still better than what I had awoke with, mild chills still persisted along with mild muscle aches.
When I woke up this morning, absolutely no scratchy throat, no chills and no muscle aches. I will close out self treatment this evening with one more round of the same treatment that I did yesterday.
I hope this info is a benefit to anons.
