I was part of Bruce Patterson’s online program in 2021 when a cocktail of maraviroc/pravastatin/ivermectin were given to patients, including me. Within 3-4 months, I was at 80% and able to work full-time and go on 2-3 mile hikes. But whatever the mechanism of healing was, it was incomplete. At the 5 month mark, I had a supremely stressful week at work + a planned weekend hiking trip, and I crashed all the way back to ground zero. It has taken me two full years to come out of that extreme PEM crash, after leaving my job permanently and giving up hiking and most everything I love. The cocktail that had worked so well did not work at all after that. I even tried maraviroc again in late 2022, to no avail. I just caution anyone who tries it to still be sure to pace. It is not a complete curative treatment, although you start to think it is when you feel so much better.
For movements, I have found Suzy Bolt really good, there are very low grade supine movements then yoga then a relaxation, there are lots of recordings on her youtube and they really understand PEM. https://youtube.com/@suzyboltyogaforlongcovid?si=XxQws_eQ52dQfwZu
Great article. I always thought that mass vaccination in the middle of a pandemic was lunacy, inviting the virus to mutate endlessly, resulting in its ability to infect monocytes which can be recruited into the brain via the messentery system, where it changes to macrophages that produce fracktalkine and start amyloidosis. Lastly the idea of allowing mRNA sequences into our cells and turn them into antigens is just misconceived nonsense, dress up as lunacy, inviting iatrogenic autoimmune antibodies which result in god knows what mischief!

Thanks Amy for sharing your story, amen to pacing
