Yeah could be, but @Dan_the_Man hasn’t responded so I dunno. The language used :astonished: just seems out of character for him so I’m curious what the doctor failed to do that elicited his harsh response. Then again, if I were sick for 13 days I would be pissed off too!

You are right about that. I was definitely pissed off and sick AF and when I called my doc to see about getting ivermectin or a number of other treatments that have proven to work but he didn’t even have the decency to call me back. I was not allowed to come to the office because of covid which was frustrating but ok I’ll wait for him to call and send in some scripts but instead, he had his nurse call and tell me “whatever I do; DO NOT come to the office. there isn’t anything we can do. drink water and take some vitamins.”

That PISSED me off beyond belief. I pride myself on being able to control my emotions but… not this time. I was so angry that my family had to almost threaten me to keep me from going up there right then and there. It took a couple of days but I was finally calmed down enough to go up there without the need to commit acts of violence. I was still quite pissed. Anyway, I went up there while sick with covid, and OMG it was like kicking a be hive or anthill. It was satisfying if I must say so myself. Petty, but satisfying. I was demanded he come out and talk to me and he did and I didn’t wait an hour like usual. He came with alacrity but was still a coward and I couldn’t shame him past his cowardice.

I know it was harsh. I mean, a coward? I still get a yes on that question. I understand though, I do. I just very much dislike cowards. I’m not sure why

No matter where people stand on this whole ivermectin thing matters not to me. For a Doctor not to do his due diligence is deplorable in my eyes.

Oh ya, I had lost my taste and smell during that time too and that was weighing on my mind. It was a big deal to me for some reason. There were some benefits to it though. Like, going into the lavatory after a family member. " oh, I forgot to spray" they say and I didn’t even notice!! :rofl:

Thanx for sharing that Dan. It must have been one hell of an ordeal for you and the family, but we’re glad to hear you’re on the mend. How has it affected your vaping…anything you had to change?

Thank you my friend. I was an ordeal, no doubt but not as bad as I thought it would be. My mom who is 70 got it too and she only had a few symptoms and it was gone in 3 to 4 days. So that made me grateful.

I think eventually, most people will have had covid and will get it again.

Basically, they made a new sickness that lasts for weeks. How wonderful. It makes me happy to know our leaders are looking out for us.

Dan, I’m out and about all the time. I work everyday transporting people and then go food shopping, etc. However, when it comes to entering a hospital or any place of medical treatment, I get stopped at the entrance and asked all the covid questions before being let in. They also took my temperature at the dental school. These places are not taking any chances of infection so don’t feel singled out, if you do.

You prolly already know that only certain doctors will treat with Ivermectin. There’s definitely 2 schools of thought and some docs just don’t believe in it’s efficacy. Nothing you can do about his beliefs but Ivermectin treatment includes a regimen of vitamins so you can at least follow that. I take zinc, D3 and vit C everyday but then I always kept that in my house. They’ve been known to support your immune system.

I only used that as an example. Two schools? No. One school the other is ignorance.

“The identity of the Official whose alleged responsibility for this hypothetical oversight has (sic) been the subject of recent discussion, is NOT shrouded in quite such impenetrable obscurity as certain previous disclosures may have led you to assume, but not to put too fine a point on it, the individual in question is, it may surprise you to learn, one whom your present interlocutor is in the habit of defining by means of the perpendicular pronoun.” Sir Humphrey.

A “No” uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a “Yes” merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.

I had to look that one up. The whole place laughed at that and I didn’t even know the word.
