For those who haven’t yet read the uplifting sequel to my mom’s medical mystery saga, I wanted to make sure you saw the special shoutout I gave to the C&C Army for your prayers solicited by TriTorch. What followed was a seemingly miraculous series of synchronicities that may just have saved her life:
“This truly felt like a Christmas miracle, and perhaps it was, thanks in part to hundreds if not thousands of people around the world having joined in prayer to support my mom, with special gratitude to TriTorch for the following poignant prayer request at the Coffee & COVID (C&C) community.”
Heartfelt thanks also go to Pierre Kory for catching my mom’s misdiagnosis, saving her from a potentially injurious (or worse) course of cipro, and Mike Yeadon for weighing in with his compassionate expertise.
Pierre Kory’s courage, perseverance, & determination in the face of a compromised medical establishment is exemplary. He gave up so much to stand on his medical convictions & assist people. His mind assimilated & retained EVERYTHING he learned in Medical school, internship, fellowship, and practice & used it to challenge the govt sanctioned narrative. It has been a privilege to follow & support Pierre for over 4 years thru his work c Dr Marek at EVMS, FLCCC, & now in his practice. May God bless Margaret Alice, Dr. Kory, & all of those who sacrificed during this dark period of medicine.
I was horrified at the serious side affects of Cipro as I had taken it many years ago for a UTI that the Urologist could not clear up off and on for 2 1/2 years,and I had an extremely bad reaction to it, causing me to purchase a Physician’s Desk Reference book on the current drugs produced and prescribed. A lot of which was over my head, but I could read the side affects and what to look for. Most of my physicians did even have one! I was shocked at what I had put in my body and no one mentioning what it could have done to my body with all my autoimmune issues. Thank goodness for our C&C family and their love, sharing and willingness and ability to help us when we don’t know. Thank you and I love you all!
My wife takes it upon herself to warn everyone she knows to never ever ever ever ever ever go to a doctor who wants to prescribe Cipro. Her ligaments are Cipro-injured.
So sorry to hear of your wife’s injuries. Such a crime!
2 years before we were introduced to Coffee and Covid we have gone only to our neighbor who’s our primary care physician who knows where we stand on RXs. We use a chiropractor who also uses natural supplements, acupuncture, etc and we take nothing prescribed other than my husband’s diabetic meds. But we researched all those and ask for the less damaging ones. And all those are the lowest dosage. I’ll be praying for your wife.
Not all carbs, but just in the form of low carb veggies. Down to my last 1/2 of a BP pill from max triple therapy. A1c and insulin levels are normal. Spouse's migraines (the reason for the trial that has now become a lifestyle) now exceedingly rare. Keto works!
It's sad to me to see the legions of folks taking Ozempic when all they'd have to do to lose weight, feel better and live longer, healthier lives is eliminate sugar and most carbs. Not as hard as you'd think, but it does take a commitment to get through the first few weeks.
While I am well aware that it causes some horrible side effects, that terrible drug saved my brother in law's life! He's now been on it for seven years! Both times doctors took him off of it, he had life threatening infections pop up! While it is a terrible drug for many, it's a life saver for him. No other antibiotic responded to his infection. He's had a Whipple procedure and any infection can be deadly. His doctors still try to talk him out of continuing to take it when he sees a new one, but he's beyond any convincing. So, we pray for his continued ability to take it.
It's true. The benefits sometimes outweigh the risks (mainly tendon). The main problem IMHO, is that it is so effective that docs handed it out like candy for infections that either needed no antibiotics, or a less broad spectrum one.
Great news, as read this thread I could not help but think that this sounded a lot like what my brother in law is going through. The part that usually only thin elderly women are diagnosed with Lady Windermere has me second guessing. He has had an ongoing cough for quite some time now. He has seen a specialist about his lungs who told him he had congestive heart failure. He then went to his cardiologist who said that was not the case. They are perplexed at his condition. Perplexed is a common condition among doctors here in Canada.He is eighty years old, vaxxed to the max but up until a year ago very healthy and active. Any thoughts about my suspicions as he could very well be immune compromised.
Vaccine-induced interstitial lung disease: a rare reaction to COVID-19 vaccine: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34510014/. Not so rare. Perplexed? Perhaps not. Men can get LW disease though too; MAC is an atypical infection.
I hope this helps you discover the cause of your brother-in-law’s symptoms! Although Lady Windermere syndrome primarily affects women, there are instances of men with it as well. See the paper and abstract below:
Abstract: A 72-year-old man presented with chronic coughing due to an infection with Mycobacterium avium complex: Lady Windermere syndrome.
——
Has he gotten a CT scan? Is there a tree-in-bud pattern? What about a bronchoscopy? MAI is very slow-growing, so it can take up to eight weeks to get the respiratory culture results.
Even if he doesn’t have Lady Windermere syndrome specifically, he may have a related condition from mycobacteria (MAI, MAC, NTM, TB, etc.). The good news is chlorine dioxide looks like a promising treatment for all of them (as well as countless other conditions). That is the Ecuador protocol Pierre offered to request for my mom. They are currently testing it on antibiotic-resistant TB.
Pierre just launched a new series on chlorine dioxide, so definitely follow his Stack for more details on this seemingly miraculous cure:
@Margaret Anna Alice. Thank you for sharing your story. I have a very similar profile as your mom. So this was very enlightening to me. I'm learning my P.a infection is like a cofactor. It grows out of control if one of my other infections flares. I found high doses of goldenseal and strong thyme tea throughout the day helps but does not cure. Both have natural antibacterial and antiviral properties. Will continue to follow your mom's journey. (P.s.I've read hashimotos could be viral. EBV. Could lupus be viral? I wish more research would be done on the effects of these herpetic viruses that may be reactivated in our bodies. Could bacteria also be cofactor to a viral infection? So we treat the bacteria but not the virus. )
I am sorry you are suffering similar symptoms, DDM, but I am thrilled this information may help you resolve your condition! And yes, you are exactly right about the P.a infection likely being a cofactor.
Thank you for the recommendations re: goldenseal and thyme tea.
I definitely recommend checking out chlorine dioxide as that is the protocol Pierre recommends. He just launched a new series on this that is well-worth following:
MAA, thank you as always for a great ride up. I request, any chance you can do a quick TLDR? I got lost in the weeds of whether IV vitamin C protocol is likely to help the chronic cough, or any nebulizer including hydrogen peroxide or silver? Was there only one treatment place a plane flight away that Pierre noted?
“yes, it would appear that your mom has some sort of non-tuberculous microbacteria, it could be MAI or it could be a cousin of MAI, but either way now that she is persistently symptomatic in merits treatment. The problem is that there is an old adage about MAI: ‘it becomes a disease of medicines’ because they are poorly tolerated. I personally would pursue a chlorine dioxide protocol, likely via nebulizer with or without oral administration as well. there is a trial going on in Ecuador for drug resistant TB using chlorine dioxide, I will try to find their protocol if you guys are interested.”
So next step is to get the Ecuador protocol and get started on that.
Thank you so much. As we both know, and Doctors like Pierre, there are many undiscovered or suspected treatments that are inexpensive and ignored or scoffed at. Not wacky fanciful stuff, but highly plausible mechanisms.
Don't forget, people die in hospital all the time of sepsis who need not be dying. If your mother becomes septic for any reason, it's high dose intravenous vitamin C, Thiamine which is B1, and corticosteroid.
See Dr. Paul Marik's work for reference. Blessings.
So wonderful to read, Margaret Anna Alice! What an answer to prayer! You reply is overflowing with extremely helpful information! I'm saving it to share! Praise God from Whom all blessings flow! I am grateful!

Dr Kory is a medical hero!
Yes, there is a lot of insightful diagnostic info in your recent stack that many can relate to.

I know someone who eliminated all sugar and all carbohydrates from the diet, and was then able to eliminate all medications.
*Decades of Diabetes was cured.!

Exactly!
He should look into DMSO. A Midwestern Doctor has written extensively on it.
Thank you, Dave. I'm glad you found it valuable!

Seeing an awful lot of this in my immediate family at the moment. Constant upper respiratory tract infections, one after the other. And all vaxxed.
If they are not immune compromised, then I’m a monkey’s uncle.

So good to see you post, Margaret Anna Alice. I was thinking about you just yesterday.
Aww, thank you, Robin 💓

I got lost in the weeds of whether IV vitamin C protocol is likely to help the chronic cough, or any nebulizer including hydrogen peroxide or silver?
