“I read here on FR that in order for Ivermectin to be effective, it needed to be taken very early in the process before severe symptoms.”
I supposed it’s different for different people. For me I started it about 8 days into Covid.
9/19/21 In the afternoon I knew there was a problem. I walked into the grocery store feeling normal to get Gatorade for Hubby. By the time I checked out I could hardly stand up. A guy near me in the aisle actually caught me when I was wobbly.
9/21/21 Tested positive.
9/21-27 Temp. of 103°. No appetite. NO energy. Cough. Hallucinations and weird dreams. (The cats were worried; they surrounded me on the bed 24/7.) Sister thought I might die just from talking to me. She had ordered ivermectin from India early on, and brought me pills.
9/27/21 Took ivermectin at 6 a.m. Felt noticeable relief about 6 hours later. Felt better 18 hours later; fever was down. 24 hours later I felt GOOD, in that I was up doing my regular activities.
Just in case someone says it would’ve been the same without ivermectin...
Hubby got sick on 9/15, and tested positive on 9/17. He refused ivermectin when I started it — believed it’s just for horses. He was in terrible shape until a whole week after I was feeling good.
We tested our oxygen a few times daily. Fortunately, the results never got to a dangerous level.
So ... maybe anecdotal, but that’s how it was in our house.
