You just got COVID... what to do next?

A practical guide to having a mild COVID experience

Almost everyone will get COVID eventually. What will you do when it happens?

A few weeks ago, I got COVID, and successfully treated it so it was no worse than a mild cold. After taking Fluvoxamine, my fever ended, and I felt almost entirely normal for the entire COVID period.

In this post, I will

• lay out a simple early treatment strategy for COVID

• explain how to quickly get the prescriptions you need (in all 50 US states)

Ultimately, you should:

• Have a mild COVID experience (COVID is often very unpleasant)

• Develop natural immunity

• Have the peace of mind that you and your loved ones will survive

What worked for me

1. Fluvoxamine (50 mg, 2x a day) - Treatment Guide

For me, Fluvoxamine was so overwhelmingly successful, with results similar to studies I’ve seen, that I’m tempted to ignore the other prescriptions & treatments. Based on my experience, if you are going to come away with one conclusion from reading this article, it would be to have a Fluvoxamine treatment strategy ready.

Common concerns:

• “Fluvoxamine is an SSRI. I don’t trust those”

  • I also held this concern (before taking it). However, the 50 mg dose is very mild — much smaller than the amount to give to depressed/OCD people. It is extremely safe at this dose. I went off of it with no withdrawal symptoms whatsoever, and feel exactly the same as I did before.

  • Note: if you’re taking Fluvoxamine, cut down on the caffeine. I’m caffeine addicted so I didn’t go cold turkey, but I cut down the amount of caffeine I normally take. Felt totally fine.

• “My doctor won’t prescribe it because he fears losing his license”

  • This is a legitimate concern. Doctors are told that COVID has no treatment. However, I explain below how to find a prescribing doctor if you live in America, with even more options in this document (page 5).

What works for others:

• Monoclonal Antibodies

  • Look for treatments in your area, & the eligibility requirements. You can get these often if your BMI is over 25, & they don’t put you on a scale.

• Ivermectin

  • Truth be told, unlike Fluvoxamine, I noticed no beneficial effects from Ivermectin. That being said, there is lots of data that it works well, especially in conjunction with Doxycycline (antibiotic) & Zinc

  • Most pharmacies will not fulfill these treatments. If you choose Dr. Robert Apter, he’ll give you a list of local pharmacies that will.

• Doxycycline 100 mg - once daily

• Fenofibrate 145 mg - once daily

• Inhaled Budesonide

How to get a prescription from Dr. Robert Apter (ER Doctor)

1. Download Medici app (formerly myfreedoctor.com) app on iPhone/Android

2. Add Robert Apter

3. Once he accepts, you can message him with your symptoms, and after a brief conversation, if appropriate, he will call in relevant prescriptions to your local pharmacy.

4. He will do this all for free, with a suggested donation of $125. You are not required to donate any amount of money, and he does this for impoverished patients as well. He gives you the treatments & prescriptions before asking for the donations. I donated the full $125 because I wanted to support him.

In addition to the prescriptions, here is a list of doctor-recommended OTC (over the counter) treatments:

Hope this helps. Make sure to treat *early*. If so, your risks should be drastically reduced.
