Mycoplasma getting worse… eye swelling and sealed shut. Next steps?

[Wyorp Rock]

Hmm… okay. No, no bad odor… at least, I don’t think so. I just got over Covid, and my sense of smell hasn’t fully recovered yet.

I hope you are feeling better.

I hope you are feeling better.

Precious is all better! The day after I finished the antibiotic, her eye was almost normal. It’s so weird. Now besides slight redness in the skin around the eye, it looks the same as the other one. I’ve been giving her probiotics and yogurt every day since. Thanks for sticking with me through it!

My sense of smell is better, too, thanks to the ivermectin I was prescribed. Had to self pay, but that stuff is good. Thank you for your concern!

I'm glad to hear that both you and Precious are doing better!
Thank you for the info and update. I hope you both continue to make a full recovery

What do they "prescribe" ivermectin for in the states, i mean what is the cost? Otc 200 mL of 1% ivermectin costs me under $4, and 200 mL is like 50 human doses or more.

It costed me $90 for hydroxychloroqine, ivermectin, and a zpac. The zpac is for any secondary infections. I didn’t have any secondary infections, so I didn’t take the zpac. But the other two are for Covid. I’d have to look to be sure, but I think the ivermectin costed $50, after insurance covered part of it. I had a 3 day supply, 6 doses total. The hydroxy costed around $10, and I got a good 24 doses or so in that one.
Here in the states, (at least in my state) ivermectin is very hard to get, and very expensive. Without insurance, my friends have paid around $150 or more for it. Not sure how many doses they got.

What country are you from?

I live in peru. Around the world ivermectin is almost zero cost.

It’s that way for a lot of drugs. In the US they cost a lot more.

It is great that your chicken is improved.

Glad that you are better, but taking ivermectin for Covid is dangerous and not a good idea. It doesn’t treat and is not an approved treatment for Covid. Covid is a virus that runs it’s course over time. People have died taking an overdose of ivermectin because of bad information about this drug, used for worms and mites/lice in animals.

It's shocking that it costs $50 a dose. The people selling it didnt even invent the drug. Usually the drug companies claim that drugs are expensive because of their research and development costs.

Her doctor prescribed it, and they charged $50 per dose, when the drug costs 0.00 and they didnt even invent it. Shocking, but not anything new for big pharma.
