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..

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.
