Thanks for the well wishes from all of you!
Mom decided at the last minute NOT to take the monoclonal antibodies, which caused a crisis there in the nursing home and with me and dad. She knows it could be the end, but she is old and in bad shape and tired of living and does not like being in the nursing home. Also, since she is asymptomatic, she is not feeling any distress. They did move her to a different area.
I checked again just now and her status is still the same, asymptomatic. I asked and they used the PCR test. As has been discussed on previous threads, does a positive PCR while being asymptomatic mean she has COVID? Time will tell. If she had taken the monoclonal antibodies and remained asymptomatic AND tested negative, would that mean the monoclonals did the job? This is an interesting firsthand case to watch. I think she pulls through, we'll see how it develops.....stay tuned!...and thanks again!

Per the above: NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme that is found in every cell in your body. It is required for the biological processes that are essential to sustaining life, from metabolism to DNA and cell repair, and is an essential fundamental mediator that supports overall brain health. NAD+ is needed to turn certain cells “on and off”. However, NAD+ levels decline as we age, depleting the brain of neurotransmitters. These lower levels of NAD+ are often accompanied by negative health consequences. Recent studies indicate that NAD+ deficiencies can trigger a number of metabolic and degenerative diseases, including obesity, Type II diabetes, CTE (chronic traumatic encephalopathy), Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s. The decline of the body’s natural levels of NAD+ is often associated with: Natural aging process Neurodegenerative Diseases Substance abuse Alcoholism Post-Traumatic Stress Anxiety Depression Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) Alzheimer's Parkinson's www.naddriptherapy.com/what-is-nad

I'd figure I'd post this here. I have to test every Tuesday for my job. Well I got a call today saying I was positive. I started to feel something in my throat Sunday evening. I thought that I may have had eaten something I was allergic to because of my diary allergy. So I took some benadryl. When I woke up Sunday I was burning up with the chills. I took some stuff my wife had for people with high blood pressure for the flu. I slept most of the day. I feel ok today but not 100%. I got the call from my work that said I can go back to work Monday. The lady also told me I had to wear a mask even if I was by myself. I told her I mostly work by myself and swing a sledgehammer. , she said I had to wear a mask while I was swinging a sledge by myself. I ask her who will be watching me because I'll pass out if I wear a mask swinging a sledge. I'm not listening to that.

Lots of good supplement info on other threads if you have not and want to go that route. I have increased my intake of fluids just waiting for this thing to hit as it is all around my area, no escape. The office being the office is such BS. Wear a mask in the outdoors by yourself? Do what you need to for the job.

Manage your lungs and congestion. Mag's litany of what to use is excellent but missing Guaifenesin (Mucinix). Don't let that shit settle on your lower lungs.

The Equate brand equivalent of Mucinex DM literally saved my sisters life when she got the Faucian-Wuhan Flu in early 2020. I believe it also helped me to recover faster too.

Don't let that shit settle on your lower lungs. It actually isn't something that I came up with on my own, but the treatment protocol I mentioned was developed by Doctor Zelenko and I'm just repeating the info. Treatment Protocol
I'm always open to new info and have to wonder if any of the other items in Dr. Zelenko's list would perform in a similar capacity as the Mucinix ?

Here's something else that needs to be done to keep the bronchial, chest and lung congestion under control, on top of taking Mucinix. I think it's better to lean over the bed for a greater downward position.
If the lung congestion gets out of control and that crap settles in the lower lungs, you're bordering on being a goner.
In other news, I have an 89-year old uncle who came down with COVID, two younger cousins who have it and may not survive (both are obese) and a couple other cousins who also have it.

Michael, best wishes to get well asap ! *Curious how the throat is feeling after a few days ? Magnus, Sunday morning was the only day I had a fever and chills. It went away after I took the stuff my wife gave me. The throat thing started Saturday night. As I mentioned, I thought it was because of my food allergy to diary. I couldn't for the life of me figure out what I ate but now I know it wasn't that. It only seemed like I couldn't get my throat cleared when I layed down to bed. It never hurt at all. Now it feels fine just seem to have a little flem. Honestly non of it felt that bad. Like I told my youngest, It actually felt good to sleep a little longer than usual. , had some nice dreams.
