A year ago I had a restaurant dinner with 11 other vaccinated people. We sanitized our hands before passing platters of various Chinese dishes. Of course no masks while eating. Ten days later my nose started running like a faucet. Real thin clear mucus, unlike any other runny nose. I took 1 or 2 grams of Vitamin C every 2 or 3 hours even during the night to slow the drip. The next morning I woke with no runny nose and felt fine. Total 12 to 14 grams of C in 24 hours. Normally I take between 4 and 7 grams a day of C for allergies.

My BA.1 running nose was similar. The usual attempts to shut it down with diphenhydramine were not really successful. This year's round of COVID has a repeat of the runny nose, post nasal drip. It resulted in lung congestion this time. Mucinex (Dextromethorphan, guiafenesin, phenylephrine HCl) helped slow the nasal dribble and cough.

My normal daily vitamin C is 1000 mg morning and evening. I add a 1,000 mg Chaga (mushroom) tablet at bedtime. The Chaga improves my sleeping SPO2% as measured by the Fitbit Charge4. On January 8th, my overnight states went to hell. Breathing rate hit 25 (normal 18), heart rate variability dropped to 8ms (normal 16), skin temperature +3.5F above baseline, SP02% 86 (normal 92 to 96). Nothing unusual in the rest heart rate stats. I had a strong positive COVID RAT that day as well. All stats back to normal now. Negative RAT.

Thanks for the report on vitamin C. I'll punch it up next time. I'm adding more NAC and bromelain right now to scrub any spike protein left over.
