    Hi double vaccinated and had covid 6 months later. Did the vaccines help, or did they cause me to be very sick (shortness of breath, tired and no energy) for about 3 weeks? Being part of the world’s biggest study, we will never know but maybe our great grand kids will. Wish I never got the vacs

    Hi, I am exploring with herbs taken in a loose-leaf tea form (Mullein and Marshmallow root).

    Have an appointment with a Chinese Medicine doctor (Wen Shu Teng from Alexandria Ontario look her up on Web) in Jan. 2023 who does acupuncture followed by deep massage plus herbs if needed. It can take as little as 3 weeks but as many as 12 weeks.

    As far as diet I have lost 40 lbs. following a healthy diet and could still lose another 10. Just started with Chinese bone broths slow cooked 24 to 30 hours. Exercise is very important even as little as 3 times a week and keep moving daily at your own pace I learned that at a pulmonary rehab twice weekly for 8 weeks.

    I was diagnosed in 2015 and was fine until March 2022 after having Covid for 3 weeks which triggered the IPF to progress. My respirologist discovered now I have bronchial asthma and put me on Symbicort will follow up with him next month. I am fine no oxygen but he suggests at some point to put me on Ofeu. NO thanks prefer to try all-natural approach.

    I am 66 who worked in the health care field as a medical clerk for 26 years and one thing I saw was each drug a patient took another drug was needed to deal with the side effects.

    Good luck young man – stay positive

    Hi Wesley

    You can count me in for the zoom meetings.  I am not too good at it but will give it a try.

    Thanks
