This Simple Test May Help Diagnose Cytokine Storm Early On, Remember The Name If You Get sick

You have to be a dialysis patient to use this method,
and they have to approve it, and get the stuff to do it.

This will NEVER happen in our current Dialysis environment.

NEVER.

I know from whence I speak hereon.

We don’t personally have an issue with most legumes except lentils, but apparently there are quite a few people who have issues with legumes. It is really hard to figure out your sensitivity without cutting out all the usual suspects for three weeks. I had an ulcer and an inflamed stomach so was really sick. I went on the Elimination diet, you can find PDF’s online. I basically ate quinoa (made cereal with honey and organic oat milk) veggies, bone broth, organic chicken and beef and fish. I didn’t take all of the meds they gave me. I also cut out coffee and drank Chaga instead. I lost all of my morning stiffness and inflammation and lost 10 lbs in 3 weeks. I ate same amount of calories, just different food. It’s an adjustment for sure but you will feel better. I went back for another look after 3 months and stomach was back to being healthy, no ulcer or inflammation. I think most people would be surprised that many of their health problems stem from having food sensitivities.

It's nice to know about tests done in a hospital lab, but you need to plan on home treatment only. That can include home testing if you can draw blood and have the procedures and reagents. No doubt in an epidemic situation, little diagnosis will be required. Just treat as though you have it unless it's a high risk treatment.

There are no hospital beds available in China, and if things got that bad, there would be none here either. You don't want to be quarantined with a bunch of sick people - especially if your not sick. You need be able to handle your own shit, even if your alone. That's the American way.

Curious about the lentils/peas/beans aspect you mentioned. Peas & Lentils are grown primarily in Washington State, Northern Idaho, Montana and North Dakota in USA. They are also grown in Canada in Saskatchewan, Manitoba & Alberta. The USA grown legumes are allowed to naturally dry in the field, at least in Washington, Idaho & Montana. Don't know about North Dakota. Since Canada is so far north, as is ND, & the growing season is so short, they usually spray their lentil/peas crops with a desiccant to force the crop to dry down enough to harvest. Most desiccants leave a
glyphosate residue.

Since Canadian peas/lentils are often cheaper, USA Packagers [who sell to grocery stores] often bring in Canadian product over the more expensive USA naturally grown and dried peas/lentils. Even if they do use USA product, probably get co-mingled with the Canadian product so hard to tell what you are buying, unfortunately. I'm wondering if it is the 'glyphosate' in the product vs the actual peas/lentils that cause the problem??

Always helps to know where your food comes from and how it is grown and harvested!!

ffs, coronavirus does not cause cytokine storm. Stop worrying.

Thanks TN!

Now that I have everything...

Elderberry syrup

Green tea

and mung bean seed coat.

It’s not perfect and the one study used mega doses of green tea, but I’m sure you have other good stuff around, too. Nature is cool. Don’t forget elderberry.

Reports seem to say this flu is like the flu of 1918. Causes massive cytokine storms.

I really, really don’t like using a news article as a reference, but, there isn’t much out there on this new strain.

….The article notes the correlation of high levels of circulating inflammatory cytokines, or "cytokine storm," with severity of illness in patients infected with the Wuhan coronavirus (2019-nCoV)….
…. This "cytokine storm" can trigger a viral sepsis in coronavirus infection, where viral replication and excessive, uncontrolled systemic inflammation can lead to pneumonitis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, respiratory failure, shock, organ failure, secondary bacterial pneumonia, and potentially death…

….In fact, many plant-derived antioxidants (e.g., polyphenol, flavonoids, etc.) could also reduce the damage of epithelial cells and the mortality of mice caused by lethal influenza.42,43,44 However, current evidence indicates that monotherapy using antioxidants had a limited effect on cytokine storm, and a combination with antivirals would still be needed.

….Epidemiological, clinical and experimental studies have established a positive correlation between green tea consumption and cardiovascular health. Catechins, the major polyphenolic compounds in green tea, exert vascular protective effects through multiple mechanisms, including antioxidative, anti-hypertensive, anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, anti-thrombogenic, and lipid lowering effects……..

….The anti-inflammatory activities of catechins may be due to their suppression of leukocyte adhesion to endothelium and subsequent transmigration through inhibition of transcriptional factor NF-kB-mediated production of cytokines and adhesion molecules both in endothelial cells and inflammatory cells. …..

….Besides being as anti-oxidants, catechins exert their biological effects by modulating some cellular signaling pathways that lead to reduction of inflammation, platelet aggregation, and an elevation of vascular reactivity….

…While some of the protective effects of catechins could be partially due to the secondary action of their antioxidant effect, it appears that catechins can directly act on immune and vascular cells to modulate their functions by targeting multiple cellular pathways and transcriptional factors involved in vascular health, inflammation and diseases such as eNOS/NO, arachidonic acid metabolism and NF-kB ….

….Symptoms were relieved on average 4 days earlier and use of rescue medication was significantly less in those receiving elderberry extract compared with placebo…

Cytokine Storm can kill you before the test gets done or the results come back.

This is what kills young healthy people when there immune systems go into overdrive and produce toxins that overwhelm the body.

Stock up on these over the counter meds, they are inexpensive, start when you first have symptoms, these items won’t kill you.

Classification

CRS is a form of systemic inflammatory response syndrome and is an adverse effect of some drugs.

The Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events classifications for CRS as of version 4.03 issued in 2010 were:

Grade 1: Mild reaction, infusion interruption not indicated; intervention not indicated

Grade 2: Therapy or infusion interruption indicated but responds promptly to symptomatic treatment (e.g., antihistamines, NSAIDS, narcotics, IV fluids); prophylactic medications indicated for <=24 hrs

Grade 3: Prolonged (e.g., not rapidly responsive to symptomatic medication and/or brief interruption of infusion); recurrence of symptoms following initial improvement; hospitalization indicated for clinical sequelae (e.g., renal impairment, pulmonary infiltrates)

Grade 4: Life-threatening consequences; pressor or ventilatory support indicated

Grade 5: Death

Prevention

Severe CRS caused by some drugs can be prevented by using lower doses, infusing slowly, and administering anti-histamines or corticosteroids before and during administration of the drug.


Management

Treatment for less severe CRS is supportive, addressing the symptoms like fever, muscle pain, or fatigue.

Moderate CRS requires oxygen therapy and giving fluids and antihypotensive agents to raise blood pressure.

For moderate to severe CRS, the use of immunosuppressive agents like corticosteroids may be necessary, but judgement must be used to avoid negating the effect of drugs intended to activate the immune system.

Tocilizumab, an anti-IL6 monoclonal antibody, has been used in some medical centers to treat severe CRS.

Although frequently used to treat severe CRS in people with ARDS, corticosteroids and NSAIDs have been evaluated in clinical trials and have shown no effect on lung mechanics, gas exchange, or beneficial outcome in early established ARDS

H2 Antagonist Drugs:
*Pepcid/Tagamet/Adix/Zantac

PPI Drugs:
*Prilosec, Prevacid, Nexium

H1 Antagonist Drugs:
*Benadryle or Generic (Diphenhydramine)

You know what Benadryl does. The H2 drugs work in the same way except on different histamines.

The PPI (Proton Pump Inhibitor) stops monocytes from going into overdrive (Monocytes = White Blood Cells)

Corona Virus Hits in a similar way to flu. It is a "Novel Virus" meaning the body has never seen anything like it.

The body goes nuts to the point that your own immune system kills you in a "Cytokine Storm" very similar to a peanut allergy, in that it's the body's response that damages the person, not so much the peanuts.

When to start "therapy"? At the first sign of flu like symptoms.

Take as directed on the box.

Difficult to get enough sun in winter.

Interesting!

I have heredity hemocromatosis and have high serum ferritin when I have too much iron in my system. I get my serum ferritin checked every three months, in fact, to see if I need to phlebotomy to bring the ferritin/iron down to a healthy level.


I have been told by more than one of my oncologists this number is affected by inflammation in the body. It will go up with any kind inflammation, from a cold to having knee pain. Due to that they never go on just this number for hemochromatosis patients, but test the actual ferritin, TIBC and Saturation % as well.

Coconut oil is great for viruses. I take a tablespoon a day. Also anti histamines will help to keep lungs free of fluid. Or at least an over abundance of it. Mucinex is good to keep the lungs clear also. Lots of water keeps the mucus thin. Keep resting.

Aspirin is great for inflammation. I heard they just dosed people with way too much. People can overdose on anything. Even things that are good for us.

If you get the flu or pneumonia watch it like a hawk

Just take it orally. I always have some around if I’m not feeling well.

In my post above coconut oil is an immune stimulant

You don’t want to take that if you are actually sick with coronavirus, flu, pneumonia, it can cause CS

Thoughts on quercetin? Looks to be an antiviral and has properties to stop cytokine storm.

Found this article on it....might not be bad to have on hand

The effects of quercetin on virus-induced macrophages have not been fully reported.

I tore my rotator cuff years back and the number went up to 658, almost my highest serum ferritin ever...but thankfully all my others numbers were okay so they knew it was the inflammation from the tear that caused it to jump so insanely high.

It was 799 when I was diagnosed with Hemochromatosis.

The scary part of CS is they don’t know who might get it

It’s like a crap shoot it appears

Be careful anytime you have something!

You should ask your doctor the connection between CS and serum ferritin levels, like what levels are high, lol

KPM, and all.

Listen to me.

This Cytokine Storm is not on their radar.

That's why YOU have to be alert.

KPM is right.

YOU have to be the one to insist of the possibility.


UNDERSTAND: I'm not talking thru my hat here.


My wife is the lab director of a major hospital in a major
metropolitan city of the southeast.

She is the "Go to person" over a major metro area.
Brilliant, well informed and knows her shit beyond belief.

I have her sending me the daily updates from the CDC about
this Virus shit.



They run these tests all the time.

I have heard "ferritine and folate" lord knows how many times.

I asked, What about cytokine storms and ferritin?

Nope. What are you talking about?

The Docs aren't looking for it yet.

Just a heads up, GLP.

Thanks TN

I really think CS is the major cause flu deaths we have each year

Is something is causing our immune systems to go into overdrive ?

Wow, Thanks TN & KPM for all the valuable info!

We have to watch out for ourselves. I live in a small town. If a big hospital isn't looking for this, I know our little hospital doesn't have a clue!

We take elderberry daily & it has kept us from getting sick. I guess that means if we get sick, we need to stop taking it. It's confusing because you think it will make you better faster, but instead could kill you.

I'm just putting this out there. The Schumann resonance is all out of whack, so could the change in earth frequency have anything to do with CS being on the increase? Somehow changing the susceptibility?

BigD, who knows!

We just need to be prepared and if we need to go in, have as much ammo as we can to question the care
