Sorry for the feeling.
I'm not a doc but I know what's wrong with you. It's a new form of malaria that developed from a specie of Mosquito.
I can't explain further.

CURE:
Buy chloroquine up to 4 doses. That should be 36 tablets.

Take 8 daily. (4 in the morning, 4 at night)
Take it for 4 days.
Your taste and smell sense will restore.

Please don't buy the CARD chloroquine. Buy the counting ones.

Please come back to NL and share your testimony for others to learn.

36 Tablets of chloroquine?
Isnt that too much??
I was an ardent consumer of chloroquine while growing up and even till adult hood and no doctor ever recommended that much.

And it was usually at most 4(first dose) then 2(twice daily).
Balance it with panadol like 3times a day.

Another QUESTION:
What's the difference between the sachet chloroquine and the counting chloroquine?

I am having same symptoms, had a little fever went to the hospital and they gave me malaria drugs and after taking the drugs I got better but lost my sense of smell and taste. It’s been 8days now my taste is gradually returning and same with smell but it’s still difficult to smell except the smell is very hard. This thing is viral because it is affecting a lot of people in Onitsha.

Hmmn.. It is well with you dear

I have had this symptom for the past 7 days.

I did the COVID Test and it came out positive.

The Lab Tech confirmed that this symptom is the most common symptom out there recently and lots of people currently have it and very few are getting tested, but most who get tested are positive.

I had the same symptoms too. I had what looked like malaria for 4 days straight, got well but sense of taste and smell is returning gradually. I Google it, and found out it's symptoms of Covid-19.

Since 2 days now I just realized that I can't smell nor taste anything,no scent, no odour, no taste, this morning I poured 1 full spoon of salt inside my mouth but couldn't taste anything

am healthy, I don't have any headache nor malaria but I don't just know what is going on


Doctors in the house please help

The WHO had recently added that as one of the symptoms of Covid19 though research is still on going on this. It happened in my house too. First it was my wife, then it disappeared after 3 or days then it was me, I quickly started blending ginger+garlic+lime+pure honey and we all okay now, taste and smell senses have all return. Shame to Covid19 it's not my portion IJN

I thank God for your life.

The shiit almost killed me during this lockdown.

I kept feeling empty from the inside, would eat, and still feel as if I am starving. Lost all sense of smell and taste. Whatever the smell and taste of water I got would make me go nauseous. Stooling seized for over 10 days. Was killing myself with all sorts of fruits to ease my stooling.

I frigging almost died by the time my wife got me to the Hospital.

The first hospital had rejected me due to my labored breathing for fear of COVID 19.

When the last hospital finally accepted to take me in after what seemed like an eternity of monitoring me outside their premises for any signs of COVID and ran a test on me, my blood sugar level was tipping already at 51.5 when a normal level should be in the 4-7 region.

The doctors were shocked and concluded that 30 minutes later than I had come in and I'd have gone into a coma and possibly death.

I did almost three weeks in the hospital and still recovering.

A very very silent killer.

Stay away from sugar and sodas guys.

Diabetes is real.

Now I have become an advocate for this cause too.

I wished I had spoken out while I was going through the same symptoms and gotten swift advice like you just did.

A health informative thread as this should be making the FP particularly at this time of a pandemic and the lockdown.




They'll rather move posts about snakes and ethnic/political nonsense to fp.
For more traffic and of course, more money via ads.

They know what they're doing.

These are symptoms of covid-19. These pose no threat as you're asymptomatic. Just take surplus vitamin c, fruits and ginger tea. If your health deteriorate further, please contact the NCDC but right now, you've got nothing to panic about.


Pls tell him to be wary of self medication as he is symptomatic. If he isn't careful, other symptoms might show. He should rather isolate quickly so that he doesn't complicate issues by infecting his immediate families

Go test your blood sugar level, please.

Everyone reading this should do as a matter of urgency it is a silent killer.

This isn't sugar level of, this is confirm coronation

You absolutely have nothing to worry about. I had a loss of taste and smell as well for about 5 days after Malaria. Stayed indoors, took vitamin c and Malaria tabs and I wasn't bothered about the smell or taste and before I knew it, my taste and smell was back. Don't let anyone bother you that its Covid o just relax your mind and stay safe.

Re: I Can't Smell Or Taste Anything, Please Help by Kallantan: 5:16pm On Jun 08, 2020
Whoa, that sounds very serious. No kidding. You need to see a doctor now, not post on the forum. It could be like covid-19 or something much more serious and with worse consequences. In fact, don't delay going to the doctor or at least call the hospital for a consultation.
Re: I Can't Smell Or Taste Anything, Please Help by Fawazzz: 5:34pm On Jun 08, 2020
Loss of smell is one of the highest predictors for covid19 and it indicates a mild to moderate form.

The way our immune system is responding is quite different to Europe and other climea

Chloroquine dose now is 4tablets for adults and 2tablets for children.
But I bet your problem will be solved after the 2nd day of the medication.

Before you see me type with strong conviction, just know that it works.
If it doesn't, mention me in the forum.

Don't be so sure my dear.
I mentioned 36 because it has to be taken with 4 days.

8tabs in a day i.e 4mon/4night
Before the 4th day, she will get her sense of smell and thirst back.
