Is OP okay? Zinc
, thiamine, vitamin c, lay on your stomach bro so your lungs can oxygenate your blood. Maintain a liquid diet and manage cough if you have one. Coughing will cause more trauma to your lungs. If you have fevers you can take Tylenol (acetaminophen) as directed on Bottle. Do not exceed daily amount because high doses of acetaminophen will cause liver damage. Just remember fevers will be expected as your body’s nature’s response to fight the virus, so don’t freak out. I had a pit with temps of 102-103 for 2 days. If you can have ice packs you can apply to neck, armpits, groin region.

Ask anything, maybe I can help

* the active Ingredient in cough syrup is dextromethorphan. It’s a cough suppressant. Many pt believe guaifenesin is a cough suppressant but it’s an expectorant. It’s therapeutic effects is to thin mucus/congestion.

Hope you have a very mild case and get back to normal quickly.

Nothing new here but the methylprednisone is interesting thats usually a steroid for a cold or cancer aside from the new stuff

Also Hydroxychloroquine is used for people with lupus and an immunosuppresive like cancer.

Also new is putting them on a statin which is used for like high cholesterol.


All and all. Nothing new with that bullchit. Just regular stuff that's prescribed to average people with other conditions.

I'd grab some pedialyte, or pedialyte plus some meal replacement packs for electrolytes because you're not gonna want to eat or drink chit. It's like the flu x10. My bestfriend said avoid anti-inflammatorys and take tylenol. vitamin the fuk up.

At worse if you feel like it. Go to the hospital or a local ER. Don't play with your life. He went because his head hurt wayyy to bad and the breathing was getting out of hand however hes a bit overweight.

holy fuk I can't imagine being so sick I couldn't even look at a screen. I'd legit go fuking crazy if I couldn't.

Even if the disease doesn't kill as many people as we initially feared, I think it still needs to be taken very very seriously considering how severe the effects can be. Fukkkkk that chit.
Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

You fully recovered now?

Gotta admit stories like dabbmw2002 does make me think maybe I should take it more seriously, I just look at the death stats (ages) and think I'll be fine, flu kills more people my age.

Still not gonna live in fear, for to live in fear is not to live at all.

China really fuked up the world.

Yes I’m pretty much at 100% right now

I knew I was going to be fine. What went through my head more was “wow if an old person or someone with pre existing conditions got the same level of sick I am right now, they might not make it”

For what it’s worth, my girlfriend was with me 24/7 right up until a few hours before the illness hit me hard. And for the entire two weeks I was sick all she experienced was a slight loss of smell/taste. Very strange disease

Then they closed again.

Don't try to be funny. Elderberry is legit one of the most potent natural things out there for boosting immune function. That, practiced with good hygiene, will keep you safe from COVID.

The reason I think it affected me worse was I read a article stating that people who get it and get a fever immediately recover better. I had almost a week of other symptom before the fever started. Basically, my immune system didn't react fast enough allowing the virus to new spread and multiply. My advice, live your life but if you feel off get tested immediately. This is just anecdotal but taking a Zpac coincided with my fever breaking.

This is controversial obviously but I do believe that the hydroxy chloroquine and the Zpac combination taken early enough helps to prevent the disease from spreading too far so your immune system can deal with it.
'Interesting insight, bro. I have read...."conspiracy sources", obviously, that state that COVID WAS made in a lab, and is basically a Frankenstein of the flu, malaria and a teensy, tiny bit of HIV(!). Anyway, the reason why HCQ works so well with COVID is because it is a malaria medicine and COVID is "part malaria".
