I’m 62 and am unvaccinated. 3 months ago I had a bout of DVT in my left leg. It swelled up and was very painful. I’ve been on Xarelto ever since, and am doing fine.

Captain Tom posted, “About two months ago I was brought down by a TIA caused by blood clots.(I am 86 years old)

Their solution in the hospital was to put me on a blood thinner called ELIQUIS (apixiban) 5mg twice a day. - Tom”

In late November/to about Christmas before any of us knew about anything about Covid, I had an aortic stent installed to prevent TIA’s and some interesting non stent issues.

Post stent, I was put on a baby aspirin a day, another newer blood thinner and the drug Tom was put on: a blood thinner called ELIQUIS (apixiban) 5mg twice a day. My wife’s joke was if she looked me, I bruised.

Before and during all of this I was probably one of the first Americans to get the Chicom virus. No one knew what I had, and we still don’t.

After the stenting, I woke up with blood in my urine and my right kidney felt like a pro boxer. I was put on an oral Cephalosporin and Ultra sounds showed no real problem except what appeared to be a bruised kidney. This was not an issue with the stent.

My symptoms mimicked what, we now know about the ChiCom flu from lost of taste and smell, headache, and body ache to go with my sore kidney. The urologist put me on Tadafil/Cialis.

I also received my new Cpap machine. So in a way, I incubated myself at night. The Cephalosporin worked on any secondary infections as well my urinary tract infection.

My apparent big bit of serendipity luck was the blood thinners working then and later when I was vaccinated 2x with the Pfizer vaccine.

Medical people I have discussed the above with, say that I was very lucky re the treatments I had, and I probably had a covid infection.

By Christmas, I was basically well. Apparently, one of our sons did get the Covid virus. He was/is in contact with dozens of people each day. We don’t know if I gave him the virus or it was job related.

My roommate/best friend for 61 years was missed by whatever tagged our son and me.

A grandson, who was 19 then was, sick/ill for 2-3 days between Christmas and New Years. He went back to college with no problems. His older sister and parents had zero covid symptoms or problems.

I guess Eliquis sales will go up dramatically.

That immunity melts away with fraud.

Short PFE, Pfizer.

This will and should hurt Pfizer financially, imo.

A mechanical pacemaker isn’t a co-morbidity; the heart disease requiring it use, would be.

Here’s my “list”...
1) Heart left ventricle (pumping at 55%),
2) Heart bundle blockage (5 stents),
3) Diabetes (Type 2, down from Type 1),
4) Hypertension (under control w/ Rx),
5) Weight (down from 265 to 165lbs),
6) COPD (under control w/ emergency inhaler),
7) Stage 2 Mild Kidney Disease (medication & diet controlled).

Holy cow! I could understand if you got the vaccine, or at least be cognizant of where you go.

I was very, very sick for 23 days in York Hospital’s Oncology Wing, with an inflamed pancreas (pseudo-cyst they thought was a pancreatic tumor) and stomach, so I was fed by IV in left and right neck vein portals — no food for 23 days, just 5 cups of ice chips per day.

I also had 4 antibiotic IVs in my two arms, for 23 days, and underwent 4 ERCP Endoscopy operations. I died 2x, and they brought me back. My body ate all my muscle, and then all the fat. I looked like a cadaver when I left.

I went into the hospital at size 38” waist, and the nurse got a piece of new rope to use as a belt, the day I was discharged. I had gone from size 38” waist to 31” waist. I’m at 165lbs and size 33” waist, still.

I’m still in God’s waiting room, but He hasn’t called me into His office, just yet.

Actually, I went from 265 to 134 lbs in 23 days (-131 lbs); I'm at 165 now, gradually re-building muscle mass and health.

Damn! Well I’m glad things are working out for you.

You could probably sell your urine and have it filtered into a chemical crystal compound...

If you got the jab; jabless people just don’t get blood clots normally.

Thank you; it’s nice to still be alive. There were a few days and weeks that I didn’t think I’d make it.

I used to gasp when I saw my Grandmas take 4-5 pills every morning, but I take 37, split into the morning and evening, daily. That’s a lot of pills and water! Heh.

“...sell your urine and have it filtered into a chemical crystal compound...”

What would that do?

I do all your supplements, some at different doses, except Solomon’s Seal 1,000mg, Camu Supreme 2,650mg, nicoderm, and aspirin. I add turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, cocoa powder in green tea. I’ve also take Actyl-carnatine, ginkgo, E, K2, Mg, Cal, NAC, Co10, taurine, and Hawthorne. By careful shopping the annual cost is under $400. I take no Rx’s.

I fast a few meals often and do a 5-day FMD (fasting mimicking diet) several times a year. Oh and I often skip supplements 1 or 2 days a week. I’ve read nothing on that being good or bad, but figure it help the body stabilize and get rid of excess imbalances, like fasting does. Plus, it reduces annual costs 20%.

Pre-Covid antivaxxers have been the vilest of leftists and those not left have been taken in by the antiWestern 60’s generation propagandists.

It was NOT the hippies, antiWesterners, or even leftists who fought for religious exemptions to vaccines in states. It was conservative Christians! We fought for this right because “freedom”, protection of our kids, of distrust of Government Medical Tyranny. This battle has been fought for decades now. Our kids are at stake. We will fight to the end. BTW…many of us are ex-military.
