My grandfather (age 77) tested positive last Friday (1/15), symptoms began (1/13).
Mostly mild symptoms so far, slight cough and GI distress.
Currently has appendix cancer, overweight, HTN has finished his treatment and they are just watching it now.
Currently taking Vitamin D, zinc and melatonin.
Vitals looking good so far.
PCM won't prescribe ivermectin or anything else yet, since he is so far looking good, says ivermectic evidence isn't strong enough yet, etc.
Any Docs have recommendations on if we should be pushing for ivermectin or any other treatment recs?
Just hate the idea of "wait and see" since he's doing well right now, since we know this thing can quickly take a turn.
Thoughts??
