Reply to comment by SteakandTrach in New evidence suggests that ‘hybrid’ immunity, the result of both vaccination and a bout of COVID-19, can provide partial protection against reinfection for at least eight months.

There is a theory that one of the cold coronaviruses was the origin of the 1889 pandemic. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8441924/

I caught omicron just over 12 months ago from kids who got it at school. There have been a few Covid outbreaks this winter in their class too but we have avoided getting it so far. Though I’m suspicious we could have picked up an asymptomatic infection this year instead?

The risks of POTS after Covid-19 vaccination & SARS cov2 infection POTS isn’t a typical autoimmune in how it’s treated but it’s triggered by shocks to the immune system. My wife developed it along with a few other autoimmune issues after her 2nd Covid vaccine. I’d imagine Covid could also be a trigger for new autoimmune conditions too. Here’s another paper that lists a few autoimmune diseases including RA. New-onset autoimmune phenomena post-COVID-19 vaccination

Not to mention the energy storage capacity required with windmills that isn’t required with modern nuclear power.

Thanks for the tips. We were worried about the side effects alright. She was getting bad migraines for a while until we switched to magnesium glycinate from citrate as one of her supplements. She only had brain fog in the early months thankfully, but she does get fibromyalgia & costochondritis. It was actually her rheumatologist that prescribed the LDN for the pain side of things. But it might be the case that all the symptoms fit together.

That’s interesting that you had the same symptoms as my wife from the breathing exercises. Up until now most doctors are surprised she can’t handle them. Her case is a bit unusual though because she started getting the stomach spasms & heart palpitations an hour after her second Covid vaccine & they dissipated somewhat over the next 3 weeks. Her cardiologist said that he sees a lot of the same POTS like symptoms from Covid & the vaccine but most people improve over time. She is a lot better now than she was last year but her vagus nerve still seems to get relapses every few months & doctors don’t seem to understand it. The neurologists seemed to understand it the least. It seems like any immune stressor can trigger it, be that a common cold or Covid infection or even a stomach bug. We’re hoping some breakthrough research comes out on the neurological side of long Covid in the next year or two since it feels like personal experimentation at the moment. But I think we will pursue trying LDN once we made sure it doesn’t interact with POTS medication! A stellate ganglion block is also on our list of possible treatments but were going through the list slowly & carefully for now.

Breathing exercises trigger heart palpitations & stomach spasms with my wife that take a few days to fully dissipate after. A few doctors & holistic health practitioners suggested to try it while connected to eeg ecg etc but they only saw ectopic beats & suggested it might be vagus nerve damage. She was prescribed LDN, which she hasn’t tried yet. Do you think Did the LDN help your vagus nerve?

Aspiration wasn't done very much in the mass vaccination centers in Ireland, that was because a lot of military etc were called up on short notice to help with the rollout.
