High altitude seems to be helping
I can't get researchers interested, but in the 4+ years I've been working on this myself, the higher the elevation I'm at the better I feel.
Just tried 10k feet for a month and it's better than 8k. If I could try 12k, I would. I did more hiking steps than ever in July, and on steep terrain.
I'm wondering if cells in a hypoxic situation are less useful to the virus we now know* resides in neurons of LC carriers.
I still have ridiculous sinus production at times that tries to drown me, various attacks on my organs, etc.
I remember living in the desert and people were there because a family member had TB and they moved there. Perhaps mountain climate will be recognized as a tonic for LC some day.
If anyone wants help, I'll try, but I'm doing lots of things at once, mostly unchanged.
