Agree to an extent. I had covid March 2021. Lost taste and smell. Not vaccinated. Smell and taste changed to horrid distortion September 2021. I have long covid. It is real and I would not wish this on my worst enemy.

My husband, son and I Had it Nov ‘21 (we were and will remain unjabbed). Came through ok (we used IVM, etc.) and X-rays confirmed it never got to our lungs. However, my husband and I lost taste and smell. Both returned, but we are still experiencing “Covid nose”, smelling garbage or smoke that isn’t there. I have also developed GI issues that started immediately after Covid that haven’t subsided. It’s not psychosomatic. It sucks. I don’t appreciate it being dismissed by people who have no experience with it. Denying it exists doesn’t help anyone get better. Covid is a bio weapon that is proven to linger in our tissues for months. Why should it surprise anyone that it has lasting effects?

We’ve been on the Nutraceutical protocol for the last 2 years, it’s not a cure, but immune boosting help, C, D, K2, Magnesium, NAC, Zinc, Quercetin, Melatonin. We both got Omi on February, I’m 59, but hardly was affected, just loss of smell for 3 weeks. My wife had it worse, but still on the mend after 3 days of fever and malaise. She had brain fog, and loss of smell and taste for about 6 weeks. We credit the supplements for limiting the illness and effects.

I may have had minor GI issues as well. My doctor recommended life extension probiotic florassist gi with phage. Can’t say whether it helped but sure it couldn’t hurt.

Have you tried grapefruit seed extract. Brings people back from the dead with diverticulitis, giardia, etc. And daily use keeps your gut totally happy.

Have not but will look into it. I was also considering IV-C and perhaps Ivermectin bi-weekly. In addition to the headaches/discomfort, I have some periodic ringing in my ears. ??? What fresh hell is this? :) with all due respect to the bad cat, this is not your momma’s cold..

This parosmia crap is for the birds.

No, but that’s a good suggestion, thanks! I’m working with a functional med practitioner and have been using probiotics and other supplements.

I had Covid last Oct. Got severe diarrhea with it. That continued to this early April. Had blood work, stool samples that found nothing. I took probiotics, drank kefir, ate Activia yogurt with probiotics, tried the BRAT diet and fasted on just broth for several days. Nothing seemed to help. Early April took a trip for a week and took Imodium every morning, since I was going to be out and about every day and didn’t want to be chained to having to find a restroom constantly. When I got home I stopped the Imodium and low and behold, I was back to normal.

Gastroenterologist said they know very little on how Covid works on the intestinal tract. Not comforting at all. Hope you can find something that works. It may be that it just takes time.

Wow! That’s so interesting that the Imodium seemed to fix things for you! I’m so glad that you feel back to normal! 🙂

My main issues are GERD and burping…sometimes like 100 times a day! It’s the weirdest thing I’ve ever experienced, and I hope it ends soon. I’m going to try some of the things people have suggested here and pray something does the trick!

We have young friends our son’s age (late twenties) who had bad, untreated Covid last March. It triggered severe Crohn’s in her and GERD in him (he just had a scope that only confirmed severe GERD, thankfully nothing more serious). They’re young parents and watching them suffer breaks my heart.

Yep, there are so many gastro issues associated with this virus. Gastroenterologist said she went to a week long seminar with Drs. from all specialities and they all came away with the take that they know very little about what is happening to people or why related to Covid. I said I don’t think it’s only about Covid but the jab also. Not sure she wanted to hear that but she did own up to the fact the medical community dropped the ball in this mess. I asked her if she and other Drs.understand that so many of us no longer have faith in her profession and she said yes. That is a big problem for us and the patients when they no longer trust us. I told her perhaps Drs. should stop listening to the CDC. They are not your friend! I think she got wide-eyed on that comment.😳🤣

Hope you can get to the bottom of your issues and heal.

I totally agree with you on the jab issues as well as the lost trust. I’m glad you told her your perspective. If more patients do that, it might help make an actual change!

Absolutely, Donald, probiotics are a must. We believe in fermented food. Me: kim chi and tsukemono. Him: unpasteurized beer.

One of the men who delivers office supplies to my husband's work place commented that his sense of smell was completely altered after receiving the vax (so I think both natural infection and the vax can be blamed for this particular symptom) and he says the same as you - he wouldn't wish it on his worst enemy. He's lost weight, can't stand to eat certain foods. Drives him crazy. And then I hear about those poor souls suffering with tinnitus!!

Because the SPIKE PROTEIN is common to both. Watch Robert Malone on Joe Rogan, he talks about this. That is the bioengineered part.

Dr. Malone and Joe Rogan are my peeps, Michele. I am with you!

My sister in law developed very strong tinnitus. Of course everyone is jabbed except me and my wife. Obviously I am not taking the effort to point out that tinnitus is due to the vaccine.

Tinnitus sucks.

It does, but at least I got to see some really great bands.

Have a family friend that lost 80% of his hearing in his right ear from the shots. I don’t recall which shot triggered it.

My friend also has had tinnitus since the jab (over a year).

Sorry to hear. I know of others who weren't vaccinated that have these issues. What makes this even worse is that your symptoms will be included with the "vaccine" side effects to hide those side effects. As you know, you'll have to be careful in accepting any pharma treatments which could be worse than your symptoms, as the supposed treatments are sure to come.

What about IVMCTN treatment for long haul Covid?

I'm not a doctor. Just a careful consumer.

Sorry to hear that and hope you will find relief soon. That sounds miserable.

Thank you so much. It fluctuates daily but coffee smells and tastes like a dead skunk mixed with rotten potatoes. Hasn’t been fun!

Expand full comment

OMG, oh you poor thing! My heart does go out to you. Coffee is life. May you be healed!

Gagging on your behalf. :(

My brother was vaxxed early on but no boosters (and only because he was caring for his terminally-ill wife at the time). He's had Covid 2x now. He lost his sense of taste and smell after the first bout. A few months later he mentioned that everything tasted like fennel. I like fennel, but sure wouldn't want that to be the only thing I could taste.
