Summary
Maple 38614 dates years of illness, with gut problems, SIBO, SIFO, MCAS and allergies, to a bad reaction to the Pfizer vaccine. A hiatal hernia caused breathing trouble, and its surgical repair made that go away immediately, though rarely it recurs and NAC fixes it. They credit nattokinase, bromelain, NAC, glutathione, ivermectin and blood and plasma donation for slow partial improvement. They are far better than four or five years ago but still have a way to go; ivermectin once left them sick for about a week.
