Ivermectin

Yesterday my older (by about six years; I am 72) half-sister Phyllis visited a health food store that my younger brother identified to her as being the source where his friend Greg managed to acquire some ivermectin awhile back. 

Supposedly the product "flies off the shelves" anytime the store gets any, so my brother didn't expect that our half-sister would have any success.

During the latter afternoon yesterday, she phoned him to say that she was going to pay us a visit (we live in the Whalley area of Surrey, whereas she lives in Langley, well outside the city of the same name). 

Well, he was soon to head off for the afternoon and the earliest evening, but he let her know that I would be here.

And eventually, come she did. What was wholly unexpected was that she had bought and brought me a small bottle of ivermectin, along with some written instructions from one of the proprietors of the store. He wants me to phone him after I follow his instructions for three days ─ since I commenced his protocol last evening, my third day will end late Saturday morning.

I was directed to take the ivermectin twice a day, so I have selected 10:00 p.m. and 10:00 a.m. I am also taking two drops of oil of oregano every two hours that I am awake.

Obviously I have no intention of identifying the name nor location of this store. But I will say that the ivermectin seems to me to be someone's recipe of the substance. It is a liquid, and the small bottle or vial comes in a little brown box that is only marked with a rather fanciful capital letter "R" near the top of all (I think) four sides.

There is no insert with the bottle, and its small label looks to me like one someone produced themselves. It reveals surprisingly little, but does offer the instructions to use half as much as the store's proprietor had written out that I am to be using.

I will be having my third dose this evening, and thus far am unable to notice anything different at all. If there is anything harmful about taking this doubled dose, it is certainly not obvious to me.

My half-sister does not know that I also spend just over 15 minutes each morning inhaling nebulized hydrogen peroxide ─ thus, I have no idea if this is a therapy that the proprietor of the store is aware of. 

And although I am not presently using any, I have some Miracle Mineral Supplement (MMS) here on hand. Don't Google that, by the way ─ use a browser like Yandex that won't censor the results and fetch you only those that are highly negative.

Of course, I take some traditional nutritional supplements that are purportedly of value in my recovery from the COVID pneumonia (long-haul COVID) that I fell victim to last month.

So we shall see if the ivermectin is able to fast-track my specific recovery ─ I hate to be in this for the so-called "long haul"!
