I never had much positive experience with Doxycycline. The few patients for which I did prescribe it, did not seem to improve much. ON THE OTHER HAND! AZITHROMYCIN, a macrolide, I had almost all of my patients on it chronically, and I had few or none of my patients contract Covid-19! It's used frequently in bronchiectasis, but I used it also in chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive lung disease with frequent exacerbations. The "typical" Z-pak consisted only of 5 days of therapy. I use chronic Azithromycin in these patients as 250 mg, QOD, every other day, to maintain a chronic basal level. Azithromycin seems to have effects WAY beyond it's antibiotic properties, as it seems to affect also the immune response to inflammation, particularly in chronic inflammation of diseased lung. And again, I don't know of anyone on chronic Azithromycin that got Covid-19, and most had very much reduced rate of exacerbations of disease. So, antibiotics may be important, but I'm not aware of any help to any of my patients with Doxycycline, but Azithromycin was helpful to many if not all of my patients!

Also, Ivermectin is a macrolide, by the way.

I will use whatever works. But I have irregular heartbeats quite frequently and it seems azithromycin seems to exacerbate that to some degree, whereas I don't have that problem with doxy. Still, I will use whatever works best.

Do you know why you have an irregular beat? Does your EKG show QT segment prolongation? Or is it something else? I don't know you, but I usually performed an EKG on my patients who had a history for irregularities or who were already on other drugs known to be associated with QT prolongation, like Hydroxychloroquine for Rheumatoid arthritis. That's also the advantage of chronic low dose therapy over intensive 5-day antibiotic course. None of my patients had abnormal QT prolongation, either before or during therapy. Appropriate medical care is always best tailored to the indivithdual patient by a competent physician. I was only sharing what my experience with my patients has been. As an individual, your response may vary. As an attending physician, I was not impressed with response of my patients to Doxycycline in exacerbations of bronchiectasis or bronchitis. Your experience may be different.

Thanks for that info. I was just in the emergency room in November and also my cardiologist had me do a 3 week monitor. Lots of irregular heartbeats caught on those. I had been told years ago that it was probably AFIB, but they never caught AFIB on an EKG. They told me I had several things going on, but not AFIB. AVblock, PVCs. I don't know everything they found, but they didn't think any of it was serious, other than the high BP. I routinely have pretty high BP, but when it gets REAL high is when I have the worst irregular heartbeats. I mean like 220/115. They got me swapping out meds, and that is a nightmare trying to adjust.

I am not a cardiologist, but I've shared in the care of patients who have both heart and lung problems. Long term monitoring, like you described seems to be the best we have right now to diagnose the cause of irregularities. It used to be called Holster monitoring, but new technology uses new names. I note that 1st degree AV-block, was recently added as an acceptable abnormality, that by itself, in isolation, will no longer disqualify pilots from flying, and speculation is rampant that this change was made to FAA regs because Covid-vax of all pilots would have otherwise grounded too many pilots. I've seen recs by cards like McCullough that cardiac MRI and other tests should be used to diagnose cardiac injury from COVID and the vax. I assume by your story that the cards are thinking that irregularities might be from heart stress by the BP. I've also taken care of hypertension emergency like the BP you describe. Hopefully, you were hospitalized and stabilized before discharge. But yeah, it might take some time to get to "well-controlled." Good luck and good health to you.

Holter, not Holster, bläst autocorrect

Thanks doc. Yeah, they stabilized me, and ran a bunch of tests and set the chances were low that I was having sever heart issues. I'm definitely not well controlled at this point, but not in hypertension emergency either. Thanks for the input. I did have Covid 2 months prior, and I don't know if that played into it, but shortly after my meds were all changed and I am pretty sure that played into also. I've had issues with BP and irregular heartbeats for 50 years. Some of it may be my fault now (weight, drinking too much, etc.) but that was not always the case, so I am not sure why I had this curse for so long. Fortunately I am actually in pretty good shape besides that, than the Lord.

That’s what Zakenko recommended too.

“...not even tylenol you could get.”

Be grateful, Dr. Alexander! For kidneys, Tylenol is like Remdesivir lite! TOXIC!

Off topic, but yesterday Zero Hedge published one of my most-important “early spread” stories. To my knowledge, this is the first time this alternative media website (with millions of readers) has run a story that theorizes that many millions of people had already been infected by the novel coronavirus BEFORE the Wuhan outbreak (and/or the lockdowns to “prevent spread.”)

To me, this is a big deal. I wrote an article thanking the Tylers for running this piece. My article includes several bullet points giving the reasons I think “Early Spread” is extremely important and, if conclusively “proven,” would detonate most of the authorized narratives about this faux pandemic.

They took a relatively innocuous threat and made it an existential one, one where the implications of what was proscribed were every bit as important as what was prescribed. Suppressing therapeutics, engaging shopworn toxins, adopting pernicious protocols - it’s small wonder so many died: they were supposed to. No one will convince me that that the cop who refused the vaccine and succumbed to “COVID” wasn’t murdered. Friggin’ doctors.

Then you all better watch this too as over two years ago Dr Tess Lawrie did the worlds best meta analysis AND has the undercover zoom showing the WHO withheld, no hid and suppressed early treatments efficacy https://youtu.be/xTR4I995zgk?si=pleEGs_rX8JHMitg

As great as it is to have a”kit”, people need to remember that Doxycycline becomes very toxic, very fast, after expiration of about 2-year shelf life!

It MUST be discarded at that point.

Love you Paul but the best stuff for strengthening the immune system and healing the body when it is “sick” are found in the kitchen or your local supplement store. No drugs are necessary. Mother Nature/God/Universe has provided everything we need.

Only because I am ignorant...how does an anti-bacterial like DOXY kill a virus like Covid? Not saying that I don't believe it but just interested in the mechanics. Thanks

i'm not a doctor.... however secondary infections.... or primary infections that happen to get covid along the way.... have multiple states of malnutrition, vit d probably a big one....

no silver bullet, want a cocktail... that is why those or any trial is so foolish... the whole product including the doctors is what is necessary to save a life.

if the government wanted to do a trial... forget the double blindness... just evaluate the patient, and randomly send them to a doctor / clinic/ hospital for treatment.... and see what the outcome is....

anyway bacteria is everywhere , fungus is everywhere...

so what exactly killed a person? a virus? a bacteria? a fungus? malnutrition?

they all play a role.

Methinks it was synergistic, HCQ+IVM+doxycycline+zinc. In both the Zelenko and Procter case series, about 1 out of 3 patitents were high risk and needed treatment (in terms of hospitalization and deaths). But knowing what we know now about the spike protein, I think the less of that shit you got in your system the better, so for myself I would like The Works (full package). There's also David Scheim's work. Omicron spikes are apparently more toxic, but don't distribute the virus well enough so you survive the illness, but you don't want them around (and definitely don't want a shot that gives them to you).

Paul and all,

Great since you are communicating with many health professionals. Please pass this message to ALL of them…

It would be great for ALL health professionals to put out this message EVERYDAY AND EVERYWHERE…especially since they could NOT unite to stop 4 years of BIOTERRORISM…

DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING LABELLED A VACCINE…until the entire gross poison/murder mess is addressed properly and all involved are heavily punished!

For ALL AMERICANS…focus now on the MOST important 2024 issue of ELECTION INTEGRITY!

Is there any other HIGHEST priority in 2024 to fix without fixing free, fair, lawful and transparent elections???

The Lex Greene piece should give all persons GREAT HOPE that the 2024 ELECTION INTEGRITY CROWD will be able to establish free, fair, lawful and transparent elections!

Lex Greene lays out our GREAT odds of winning…

P.S. Since many of those health professionals you communicate with Paul still have income…how about encourage them to support the best in the ELECTION INTEGRITY CROWD?

Support Mike Lindell, My Pillow guy because FOX ‘News’ dumped him and… because he is using mountains of his money and his talents and blessings for the cause of ELECTION INTEGRITY!

Where are the rest of Americans using their money to support serious strategic planners working on ELECTION INTEGRITY?

All his products are great if you need a wedding, birthday or any other gift!

I gave my kids a gift of $ to spend with Mike’s company! They all loved the things they picked out…

Dog beds

Pillows

Kids Noah’s ark pillowcases

Oversized bath mats

Sheets and towels

MYPILLOW has something for everyone!
