Ivermectin May Help Post-COVID and Vaccine-Induced Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Expert
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), also known as myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME), may leave sufferers feeling tired even after they sleep. It can also cause problems with memory and concentration.
CFS cases have increased in number during the last year. COVID-19 pandemic and some doctors are using novel methods to treat the condition—including ivermectin, which was called a “wonder drug” to ensure human health and safety before the pandemic.
Nearly 80 percent of the CFS Reports Post-COVID
Recent ahref=”https://www.mdpi.com/2035-8377/15/1/1″>questionnaire-based Study Nearly 80 percent patients with COVID-19 experienced one or more persistent symptoms after infected. Almost 58 percent also met the criteria for ME/CFS.
Another study found that CFS was most prevalent in people with severe COVID. However, it is also common in people who have asymptomatic infections. One in five patients reported having the condition.pdf).
CFS had been a>=”https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK284897/”>described as early as 1934 and was associated with the Epstein-Barr virus in the ’80s.
Patients should be seen most often before developing symptoms. reported Severe illness, injury, surgery, accident, or emotional trauma.
“Post-COVID fatigue and myalgic encephalomyelitis are two disorders that have a tremendous amount of overlap,” The Epoch Times was informed by Dr. Thomas Gut who is the medical director at Staten Island University Hospital’s Post-COVID Recovery Center, which is part of Northwell Health in New York.
A condition called Post-COVID CFS. COVID for longIs it a href=”https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9167847/”>characterized by prolonged, generalized, and abnormal fatigue after exercise that doesn’t resolve after rest, recurrent headaches, and problems with concentration and memory, which have lasted for at least six months.
You might also notice other symptoms like tender lymph nodes and musculoskeletal discomfort, as well as sleep disruption and psychiatric problems.
It has also been described as a>=”https://journals.plos.org/plosbiology/article?id=10.1371/journal.pbio.3001643″>identified As a possible adverse reaction to having COVID-19 vaccinated.
Chronic fatigue syndrome and its painful cousin, Fibromyalgia, are two examples of the symptoms. “tripping of a circuit breaker” in the part of the brain called the hypothalamus, Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, a board-certified internist and nationally known expert in the fields of Chronic fatigue syndromeThe Epoch Times was told by fibromyalgia, sleep, pain and other symptoms,
“It is not enough to simply turn the circuit breaker back on,” Teitelbaum continued. “You also need to address what caused the circuit breaker to overload, and this varies dramatically from cause to cause.”
He said that CFS can result from many stressors, as well as infections other than COVID. These include:
- Stressful job or relationship
- Hormonal problems
- Other chronic infections
- Autoimmune disease
Gut added that currently, the causes of long COVID and most post-COVID neurocognitive changes are poorly understood and don’t have a clear mechanism to explain the symptoms.
“There are many centers for treatment in the U.S. that have had some promising results in helping patients cope or alleviate some symptoms, but the approaches vary widely,” Gut. “Unfortunately, we are in the infancy of long-COVID research and very few established treatment options exist outside of dedicated COVID recovery programs.”
Ivermectin May help post-COVID or post-vaccine CFS
Teitelbaum said that Ivermectin may be able to help people with post-COVID CFS.
Research Finds ivermectin It can be very helpful Despite the widespread campaign against COVID, it is still common. It is also promising for long-term COVID treatments.
Recently completed Clinical trial MedinCell, the drugmaker, assessed the safety and effectiveness of ivermectin tablets orally taken for 28 days. This was done under the supervision of an American-based independent data monitoring panel.
Participants in the ivermectin-treated group saw a statistically significant decrease of 72 percent in laboratory confirmed infections, compared to a placebo.
A daily intake of ivermectin at 200 micrograms/kg on day 1, and 100 micrograms/kg daily thereafter from day 2 to day 28 of the study had no adverse effects.
People should take care when taking ivermectin as some people are allergic and others may be allergic. side effects It can cause nausea, dizziness, chest discomfort, and even dizziness.
“It was unexpected,” Teitelbaum said, “but we have found that ivermectin is often very helpful in both long COVID and in post-COVID-vaccine CFS and fibromyalgia.
“I don’t know why,” He admitted it. “I simply know from treating people that it does.” He stated that he could offer speculations but that they would be only theories.
One study gives a hint. It was found that ivermectin has antiviral activity against many RNA and DNA viruses such as yellow fever, Zika, dengue and Zika. In lab tests, the drug showed specific activity against SARS-CoV-2. Its potential mechanism of action is that it blocks viral proteins which suppress normal immune responses.
Teitelbaum stated that post-COVID patients are distinguished from other causes of chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia by the fact that they have a different diagnosis. “many improve considerably with the medication ivermectin.”
Other than ivermectin there are other ways to combat post-COVID CFS.
Natural Ways to Fight CFS
Published Research in the Indian Journal of Tuberculosis finds an effective CFS treatment is total rest—which means relaxing with no mental stimulation.
Researchers found that post-COVID CFS sufferers described long periods of lying in darkened rooms to aid mental and physical rest.
They recommend relaxation and the use of breathing and meditation apps. Also, reducing sensory inputs that make you anxious, such as noise and bright light, is a good idea. You should instead listen to soothing music and smells that relax you.
Another study After six weeks of treatment, it was found that 1,000 mg of the supplement OXALOACATE reduced mental and physical fatigue in patients with CFS and long COVID.
Teitelbaum identified the following common treatments for CFS:
- NAC (N-acetylcysteine)
- Glutathione
- Multivitamin with zinc
- Anti-inflammatories such as highly absorb curcumin and Boswellia are available. “shut down” The virus can cause inflammation and oxidative damage.
Teitelbaum said that addressing these issues along with the SHINE Protocol has led to many people feeling less fatigued and a better quality of their lives.
SHINE is an acronym that stands for the five major areas of health which must be looked after. It stands to get adequate sleep, good nutrition, healthy hormone levels, immune system and underlying diseases, as well as exercise.
“Whether the CFS/fibromyalgia comes from COVID or other causes,” said Teitelbaum, “these conditions are very treatable.”
He stated that the problem was not lack of effective treatments. It is a lack in physician education. The conditions are complicated and these treatments are expensive.
