Summary
Posted in r/covidlonghaulers in July 2025: two months of a 'spike detox' with ordinary NAC, then Augmented NAC at 2 x 400 mg a day, planned for three months. One ANAC capsule brought Herxheimer-like symptoms and three days of hangover-like malaise. They blame the jabs for destroying their immune system and say Zoster Sine Herpete left knifelike pain in their left torso.
