Summary: The commenter shares a personal anecdote claiming that Ivermectin (IVM) and Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) were effective in treating their COVID-19 infection. They argue that the CDC provided misinformation by discouraging the use of these drugs and support the use of repurposed medications for COVID-19 treatment.
In June 2022, my husband and I had an out-of-state couple visit but didn't feel well, so we tested them in the driveway, and both were COVID positive. Because we had recently obtained Ivermectin (IVM) & Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) prescriptions, we let them stay for a few days. A couple of days after they departed, I began feeling ill, so we tested each other...I was positive and husband negative. I immediately began taking IVM & HCQ, and I tried seeing my MultiCare doctor but she wasn't available. Husband drove me to a local MultiCare hospital that verified I had COVID, so I asked to receive a mono-clonal antibody infusion. MultiCare informed me that they stopped providing infusions just one week earlier and that I should take a new drug called Paxlovid; they also recommended I receive Remdesivir. Neither of those were an option for me, so MultiCare found another hospital chain that still had mono-clonal antibody infusions where I finally received them. My condition began improving within a couple of days. Then, my husband began feeling delirious and ran a fever of 104. He then tested positive, so he immediately took IVM & HCQ and drove to the same hospital to receive a mono-clonal antibody infusion. After 24 hours, he felt much better, and after 48 hours he felt fine with no fever...only slight fatigue. My condition remained the same on day 3, 4, and 5. We both continued taking our IVM & HCQ prescriptions. He had no more issues except slight fatigue. On day 7, I began experiencing extreme heat in my upper chest, began coughing repeatedly, and all of my upper sinus cavities were under tremendous pressure. The hospital suggested I be admitted and take Paxlovid & Remdesivir. Instead, my husband phoned an ENT in Houston, Texas who claimed to have treated 3,000+ COVID patients with IVM & HCQ, and not one of those were admitted to a hospital, and they all recovered. I knew she had recently been banned from a Houston hospital for prescribing IVM to her patients. The ENT and my husband texted for several hours, and after learning of my initial symptoms, the IVM & HCQ dosage, and mono-clonal antibody treatment, and the rapid decline on day 7, the ENT said my IVM dosage was far too low, and my declining condition on day 7 was a normal outcome from her COVID patients who had too low of an IVM dose. The ENT said to quadruple my IVM dosage for three days and then reduce to double dosage. After only one hour of taking the increased dose, my symptoms DRASTICALLY improved, but I didn't have enough IVM tablets remaining to continue the new treatment plan. The ENT was not allowed to prescribe IVM from Texas to Washington State, so she directed me to a 24/7 phone consultation service where I obtained a prescription for IVM through a Washington State compound pharmacy. After 2.5 days of running out of IVM while waiting for new shipment, my upper chest extreme heat, all sinus cavities under pressure, and relentless coughing returned. Two days later, the new prescriptions arrived, and again after only one hour of taking the quadruple IVM dose, my symptoms began improving substantially. After several more hours, my chest began to feel normal, and my sinus pressure was relieved; my cough however, was still there...only slightly less. After seven days taking the new prescription, I felt much better except for some coughing and fatigue. There is no explanation except that the IVM, HCQ, and mono-clonal antibody infusion improved my condition, then running out of IVM causing a serious medical condition almost immediately, then taking IVM again and erasing the serious condition is undeniable proof that IVM was a leading cause for my recovery. I have lost total confidence in the CDC's ability to recommend sound advice. During my nightmare COVID experience, the CDC's website continued spewing misinformation regarding IVM & HCQ claiming that IVM was "horse" medicine. Yes, there is a horse IVM med, a canine IVM med, and yes, there is a human IVM med. The people who took IVM horse meds followed by 911 calls did so because they could not obtain the human version through the medical community, and they did not know the vet versions were different from human versions. CDC's website recommended COVID people just to go home and take Tylenol, and wait until 1 of 8 very serious symptoms occurred, and then proceed to a hospital where they could begin very dangerous Remdesivir treatments (because CDC proclaimed there was NO other treatment available). COVID shots were EUA-approved only because there wasn't a drug cure available, which was a total lie to push the COVID shots. EUA would never have been approved if CDC would have researched qualified doctors who had tremendous success prescribing IVM & HCQ & mono-clonal antibody infusions. My doctor said she would prescribe IVM to me only for parasites. Repurposing drugs has been a very common practice for years! IVM was FDA approved in 1987. Repurposing IVM to also treat COVID became a life-saver!
