Summary
Fjord 23969 dates their chronic illness to a second Pfizer shot, with fatigue, brain fog, poor concentration, tinnitus and PVCs. They say early, long-term ivermectin got rid of most problems, later crediting black seed oil too. By 2023 they were mostly recovered and could program and shovel snow; by 2024 they had a normal life with a lingering irregular heartbeat, and by 2026 they said they had recovered. Fasting worsened them; statins caused only side effects.
