Great minds think alike. A fellow Freeper just emailed me about vitamin C.
Thanks, folks, for the prayers and suggestions.
I buy it from Amazon. Liquid type form in a packet. Tastes incredibly bad. I Have to put it at the back of my throat.
Not all Liposomal C is the same so you have to research it.
Might not do any good for you but at the first signs for the rest of your family they should use it.
Also used Vitamin A , zinc , turmeric, thieves oil, zicam, and diluted hydrogen peroxide in my ears and a shot of whiskey with New Zealand Manuka Honey
I was sneezing, headache, horrible runny nose..worst I have ever had...and I knocked it out.
Vitamin D, also.
We humans as a species tend to slack off on C and D in the wintertime.
Vitamin C, because it's in fresh fruits & vegetables, vitamin D because it's in sunshine and non-usual dietary sources for Americans.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is naturally present in very few foods, added to others, and available as a dietary supplement...
[fat soluble: eat with fat to increase absorption]
Very few foods in nature contain vitamin D. The flesh of fatty fish (such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel) and fish liver oils are among the best sources [1,11]. Small amounts of vitamin D are found in beef liver, cheese, and egg yolks. Vitamin D in these foods is primarily in the form of vitamin D3 and its metabolite 25(OH)D3 [12]. Some mushrooms provide vitamin D2 in variable amounts [13,14]. Mushrooms with enhanced levels of vitamin D2 from being exposed to ultraviolet light under controlled conditions are also available.
Fortified foods provide most of the vitamin D in the American diet [1,14]. For example, almost all of the U.S. milk supply is voluntarily fortified with 100 IU/cup [1]. (In Canada, milk is fortified by law with 35–40 IU/100 mL, as is margarine at ≥530 IU/100 g.) In the 1930s, a milk fortification program was implemented in the United States to combat rickets, then a major public health problem [1]. Other dairy products made from milk, such as cheese and ice cream, are generally not fortified. Ready-to-eat breakfast cereals often contain added vitamin D, as do some brands of orange juice, yogurt, margarine and other food products. Plant milk alternatives (such as beverages made from soy, almond, or oats) are often fortified with vitamin D to the amount found in fortified cow’s milk (about 100 IU/cup); the Nutrition Facts label will list the actual amount.
Sardines are good, also, and don't contain much if any mercury, since the fish are very small.
I thought mine was greater than it is, so I've taken steps to increase it past the RDA.
No suggestions but all the best and prayers up for you.
