I got covid, symptoms started Tuesday 2 weeks ago almost.
Was pretty mild, just needed more and more pregnenolone from Thursday that week onwards. Normally need more when flaring up. Thought it was adrenals.
Got to my previous max on Friday (275 mg support). Saturday morning started crashing badly, felt like adrenal crisis (numbness tingling, intense nausea, fever chills, etc). Took 350 mg pregnenolone to stabilise and 40 mg hydrocortisone.
Went to the hospital. Was doing poorly there. Needed a further 50 mg pregnenolone at noon and 50 mg in the afternoon. They didn't know anything about pregnenolone in terms of uses etc.
Gave me 50 mg hydrocortisone push IV and it didn't help the nausea or anything really.. So I figured it can't be adrenal directly. They sent me home.
Needed total 775 mg that day to get through. Slept ok that night. Started crashing the next morning badly.
Got up to 600 mg before 1030.
Did an IV vitamin c with 50 g C, some glutathione and vitamins. Stabilised me a bit but then needed more in the evening (total 850 mg pregnenolone).
Now I woke at 1 am starting to crash again, and have already taken 200 mg pregnenolone and it is now 3 am. Don't know what I should do - how can I stop it? Bcaas do nothing aside from slowing the nausea a little.
Will do an ivc in the morning. Will try dose up more and see if I can sleep at all but it seems unlikely.
Dont have access to any benzos or any strong drugs at all.
Please help. Scared of what happens if the pregnenolone stops helping or what health ill be at.. @mitoMAN @Learner1 @Violeta @Judee @Martin aka paused||M.E. @Hip
