Long COVID, transformed senescent monocytes and therapies

[Aaron Hartman]

I have been trying to keep up with the COVID, Long COVID literature since seeing my 1st patient with Long COVID last summer. I recently came across Dr. Bruce Patterson’s work on Long COVID using CCR5 drugs (eg. Maraviroc), Ivermectin, statins, ARBs to treat this. What interests me is that he referred to the dysfunctional monocytes and their role in this disease (instead of only surviving 1 day they are now surviving much longer). He doens’t use the term ‘secescent’ monocytes, but that is what I was hearing when he was discussing his research and his approach.

So my question, are others out there familiar with his work and integrating it with peptide therapy? If so how?

It seems to me that his research gives us another tool in our tool kit, BUT also points to scenscent cells creating inflammatory cytokines as the cause for Long COVID.

Thoughts?

Hello doctors @cpaigepaigemd-com @tl2bactivegmail-com, would love to have your inputs here.

Thank you! 🙂

Aaron,

I have to admit that I am not familiar with Dr Patterson’s work. I have though treated a decent number of longer term Covid patients. I think anything we can add as a practitioner to legitimize/monitor our treatment plans/protocols is always helpful. I have had great success with getting TB4, TA1 and BPC on board and using them for a few weeks. I have had one refectory case that I have now been working with for a year, but he is nearly back to baseline.  I go more with subjective findings on these patients because I haven’t found the labs to be all that useful in these patients. That is just my experience.

Thanks for your reply.

It does seem that based on Dr. Patterson’s work that BPC and thymic pepides would be a decent starting point.

What is the recommended doses of TA1, BPC-157, and TB4 for the COVID long hauler? Also, at this point would Ketone Esters be of benefit? And, has anyone used inhaled exosomes for the brain fog?
