I can’t quite catch the name of the drug Dr Patterson is taking about, I thought it was a statin but in the UK they all have similar word endings, nothing like he seems to be saying..what is it he suggests dosing in very low doses used for cholesterol etc normally?

Hi!
Yeah, he goes kinda fast. It is a statin but sub cholesterol lowering dosage. I believe he uses pravastatin.

I highly recommend reading the article link tho as it has all the current updates on research and causes along with treatments for each cause.

It’s known that long covid has many different profiles and causes that are different for each person, so there’s no ONE treatment for everyone.

The article discusses this in depth along with potential treatments and solutions. It’s a lot to digest all at once. I keep re reading it. But it’s a great resource to share with your doctors and for yourself as an advocate.

I think Dr Patterson’s focus is on those with the mutant macrophages that contain the spike protein, so getting his test or any test that can measure this marker in wbc would help direct treatment. But I highly recommend reading the article and going to the chart that shows the various pathways of long covid.

Dr Been does a great job of explaining the paper and once you read it, it helps to find what your particular brand of long covid might be.

Best wishes for everyone on their healing journeys! And I hope treatments and cures are found soon!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
