The fringe conspiracy theories are spinning about the gofundme being paused for violating terms and service, and now they’re getting refunds. Of course they think it’s a deep state plot, not because they got brainwashed by antivax propaganda and funded domestic terrorism #cdnpoli
And yes, this is domestic terrorism now what’s happening in #OccupyOttawa and #CouttsCrisis blockade. This was never about mandates or freedom it was about an anti science alt right political movement. The sooner you realize this is not a peaceful protest, the better.
“Stop telling the truth!” Typical propaganda tactic used in the antivaxx movement behind the #FreedomTruckers to push their disinformation about the vaccine too. They’re trying to deflect from the gofundme being shut down bc they’ve committed illegal acts. #terrorism
And yes they want to overthrow the government despite their narrative this is about mandates. They’re also freaking out bc Tamara’s fb has been disabled, the gofundme is shut down and they’re now committing illegal blockades. #GoHomeFluTruxKlan
#FluTruxKlan are completely unhinged from reality and are dangerous I hope that people realize this isn’t truckers fighting for mandates, it’s anti vax conspiracy theorists holding Coutts and Ottawa hostage for their political motives to overthrow liberal gov. @JimWatsonOttawa

It’s hard for me to share these photos but I want people to see what this virus can do. These photos are from 2022.
I have been bald since May 2022 when my hair started to fall out after my first Covid infection which was ASYMPTOMATIC. I was diagnosed with alopecia areata, which is an autoimmune response. I lost my hair, brows and lashes. I also had vascular lesions everywhere. I also developed solar urticaria, meaning I’m allergic to UVA/UVB. Indoor lights burned my skin. The sun gave me anaphylaxis. I have not been able to be in direct sunlight in over 2 years. My eyes swelled shut for several weeks.
I can go outside in the shade now at least if the UV is low enough. My hair is starting to grow back for the first time normally. My eyelashes and eyebrows fully grew back. These are all wigs
About to have a video conference with specialists about my lymphocyte panel results.
Okay so they confirmed I have long covid viral persistence in my monocytes. Dr. Patterson prescribed HIV antivirals and a statin. The statin can get the spike protein out of the body via apoptosis. I am going to be doing 6 months of Maraviroc and Atorvastatin. Confirms I have vascular inflammation and damaged endothelial cells. He said the spike can persist forever if you don’t clear it. He also said it was not LIVE viral replication. It’s the viral fragments left behind after an infection that cause a cytokine storm.
Sounds mild, right?
My CD8 cells were high and I have spike protein persisting in my monocytes
I feel so motivated today I’ve already read 14 medical journals. I’m now convinced nicotine helps LC not only because of the theory that it might dislodge viral fragments from acetylcholine receptors, I think it’s also a mast cell stabilizer that can cross the BBB.
Everything always comes back to mast cell activation. That is the key to solving LC and ME/CFS
I am so fkn happy that I studied pharmacology and statistics in my psych degree now. I can read and summarize medical journals and studies so quickly. Photographic memory helps too. Thank you ncitoine for giving me my cognitive function back to 💯💯
Managing MCAS is a 24/7 job but I’ve got it controlled now that all my LC symptoms are gone and my other autoimmune diseases seem to be in remission. Not getting PEM, usual fibromyalgia pain is gone, my hair is growing, my blood circulation is better. I’m still allergic to UV but it’s slowly getting less severe the longer my mast cells are stable.
I’m doing research now to see if there’s a connection with nicotine and mast cells because my recovery since adding it has pushed me from severe to mild. So far I’ve found that nicotine agonists inhibit histamine release from human basophils so I think nicotine might be a mast cell modulator.
“Inflammatory substances released by mast cells induce and maintain the allergic response. The mast cells degranulate rapidly (in seconds) releasing the preformed chemical mediators, including histamine and β-hexosaminidase that play a critical role in the immediate-type allergic response.”
In this study they found that stimulation of FcεRI IgE receptors caused rapid mast cell degranulation (which causes MCAS symptoms). They compared the effects of cromoglycate sodium (a well known mast cell stabilizer) and Nicotine on mast cells.
Cromo Sodium inhibited the FcεRI response by 10-15%. In comparison a low dose of Nicotine inhibited the response by 40-60%! Nicotine is relatively a strong inhibitor of mast cell cytokine production. However because nicotine has such a short half life this study shows that continuous dosing of nicotine is needed to suppress the late stage mast cell degranulation by inhibiting the release of certain inflammatory cytokines.
There are nicotinic acetylcholine receptors on mast cells.
“property of the nAChRs on mast cells might be accessible to novel therapeutic approaches to control allergic diseases and allergic asthma”
Severe MCAS was driving all of my symptoms and since adding nicotine patches, I can’t believe the quality of life I’ve recovered in such a short time.

I’ve recovered from long covid twice before and I’m finally recovering again. Things that have been most helpful towards recovery: amino acids, collagen peptides, metformin, antioxidants & nicotine patches. Also supplements with antiviral effect, calming TLR4, treating MCAS. I’m sleeping 7-8 hours a night and my anxiety is gone. Orthostatic intolerance improved. Pain improving. Inflammation battle won.
This is a good article on natural antivirals, something to research if you were denied paxlovid bc of eugenics like I was:
