A year after a mysterious infection which matched in onset, duration and symptoms, I’m still trying to get back to normal.

At present, I am trying high-dose Vitamin C (10 grams or more a day) plus B vitamins and magnesium too. So far after 5 days, I am getting a little better every day in terms of mental clarity and energy. There is an abundance of medical literature proving that once a threshold is reached, that Vitamin C can solve all sorts of health issues, having robust anti-viral, anti-biotic, anti inflammatory properies, in addition to being crucal for all sorts of physiological processes*. As well as being safe in outrageously high doses, bowel tolerance being the main “risk” if too much is taken all at once.

Confounding factors for me include a cracked/infected molar which was remove earlier this week. It has been an issue for 3 months, possibly longer but not to my knowledge. I cannot rule out that recent issues had some contribution from that tooth.

Medical establishment ignores Vitamin C

What is truly appalling is the total lack of interest in using intravenous Vitamin C (IVAA) for COVID patients, although a few brave doctors have shown it to be highly effective for treatment, this case being no accident. It’s just that the medical establishment has no interest in cheap effective treatments, preferring to label any such usage as quackery while failing to falsify it.

* Please don’t get fooled by “scientific” studies that allege to test Vitamin C by using the wrong dosage with the wrong protocols, thus failing to match any of the protocols for which it is claimed to work, then claiming it doesn’t work—a cesspool of intellectual fraud. The history of medical science is riddled with studies designed to fail, to protect financial interests, and vice versa.

[I’ve highlighted all the things that have been a problem for me]

The acute clinical manifestations of COVID-19 are well characterized1,2; however, its post-acute sequalae have not been comprehensively described. Here, we use the national healthcare databases of the US Department of Veterans Affairs to systematically and comprehensively identify 6-month incident sequalae including diagnoses, medication use, and laboratory abnormalities in 30-day survivors of COVID-19.

We show that beyond the first 30 days of illness, people with COVID-19 exhibit higher risk of death and health resource utilization. Our high dimensional approach identifies incident sequalae in the respiratory system and several others including nervous system and neurocognitive disorders, mental health disorders, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, malaise, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, and anemia.

We show increased incident use of several therapeutics including pain medications (opioids and non-opioids), antidepressants, anxiolytics, antihypertensives, and oral hypoglycemics and evidence of laboratory abnormalities in multiple organ systems. Analysis of an array of pre-specified outcomes reveals a risk gradient that increased across severity of the acute COVID-19 infection (non-hospitalized, hospitalized, admitted to intensive care).

The findings show that beyond the acute illness, substantial burden of health loss — spanning pulmonary and several extrapulmonary organ systems — is experienced by COVID-19 survivors. The results provide a roadmap to inform health system planning and development of multidisciplinary care strategies to reduce chronic health loss among COVID-19 survivors.

WIND: medical science will be baffled for years to come by such complex issues, which is why it is best to realize right away that doctors are not a solution, but are part of the problem. It’s up to you to heal yourself. I mean emphatically, because medical “science” has long ignored nutrition and what works and is addicted to prescription drugs. That crowd is never going to take off the blinders. There will not be any Long Haul COVID pill.

Heal yourself the only way that can work:

• Eat a nutrient-rich diet.
• Eliminate artificial ingredients of any kind, processed foods, sugars, etc.
• Therapeutic use of nutrients like Vitamin C, B vitamins, magnesium, Vitamin K2.
• Sleep and reducing stress.
