Jim - i hate to hear you're unwell. Hopefully some of the folks from SD can chime in once they are up and read this. Maybe Lishali might know of someone?

Sending good vibes for a quick resolution and return to health. 

Sorry to hear this.  Go to a clinic called IDA. It's an American owned clinic / hospital.  You are near them as they are behind Bravo on Churchill.  Here is their # +1 809-297-7779

Dr Yunen in Santo Domingo is a highly reputable doctor, also an infectious disease specialist.  Find ARS Yunen Medical Group online to get the number where they may direct you. 

@ddmcghee Sorry you both are experiencing this health concern. I AGREE with planner recommendation.

The Emergency room you went to was it in the capital? 

Personal update:  THANK YOU for all the recommendations!!

I'm not getting better today...but I've also not gotten any worse.  So, we'll do a holding pattern over the weekend and I'll take one of your recommendations for Monday, if still needed.

THANK YOU ALL for being such a prompt, reliable resource for quality referrals.

Hey, Jim! How are you feeling today?

And another update:

Over the weekend, I legally obtained some hydroxychloroquine from a local farmacia. 

I don't know whether I broke any rules, but I began taking it as per standard dosing (1 x 2 x day) -- and experienced an IMMEDIATE and DRAMATIC improvement in my physical condition.  The remarkable improvement was immediate, pronounced and started within 20 minutes of the first dose.  Wow!!!

I wouldn't say I'm cured, but I'm probably at 90% (vast improvement) and am now confident I will  be fully healed by the end of the week. 

Again, thanks for everyone's advice.  I'll be saving these recommendations against future needs.

Jim

±è.²õ.:Ìý A pox on the US FDA and CDC for dissing hydroxychloroquine as being not only ineffective against COVID...but DANGEROUS!!!!! While I already knew this as reality on an intellectual basis from the numerous post-pandemic articles...I now know it on a very, very clear personal and medical basis. 

I will never again trust anything these "public health agencies" advise me to do.  And mandates?  OH, HECK NO!!  I lost personal friends to COVID-19...and they plain didn't need to die at that time, nor from this particular cause. 

I have just been radicalized in a way I wouldn't have thought possible even a few years ago. 

What made you decide to try hydroxychloroquine?

We won't be having the discussion about the medication.  Any further discussion of it will be removed. 

Glad you are feeling better.
