OK quick update guys. Too-fucked to hang around / concentrate so I'll answer a few quotes and paste the update I just posted in the mod lobby:
I missed the viral-treatment window. See below. Thanks mate.
Thank you Brother Drew!
I'll take everything I possibly can at this point mate.
Thank you Brother 3.
Yeah na... I couldn't bear to have a thread "all about me" mate; I've just never considered myself important in any way and what little ego I have left would not be able to stand it.
I totally appreciate the kind sentiment 'though brother.
OK, so here's most of what I posted in the mod lobby:
Turns out it's shingles. Haven't seen any pics of scalp infestations on the net that are even a 10th as bad as what I've got. Right now my scalp's literally one big scab that throbs and weeps all-day. Hair is obviously all stuck-together like a helmet 'cause of the liquid drying.
I missed the medical viral-treatment window of 3 days 'cause I didn't realise what it was 'til I was a week into the ordeal.
Just doing everything I can by cranking up all my supplementation that I usually take to get by with my CFS and autoimmune:
3 litres of herbal tea a day, fibre, echinacea, olive leaf extract, vitamin C, chlorophyl, colloidal silver, Reliv, zinc, D3 / K2, magnesium, spirulina, blackstrap molasses, crushed-coral minerals, cod liver oil and so on. It's a full-time job taking all this shit! 
Notably, I'm taking the silver at just below the quantity that turns your body blue - 1ml / kg of bodyweight for a 30ppm solution, so I'm taking 20% below that - 'cause I feel that this is the most-potent antiviral non-medical-drug approach I can take. The olive leaf extract fights viruses too, but at a much-lower level. Everything else is for immune support.
I'll paste this to that thread in OTC where peeps were concerned in order to save time. Hopefully I can manage to do the home page again this coming weekend. I'm proud of the fact that I haven't missed a beat with it yet, touch wood, come Hell or high water. 

Been a Helluva year health and mental-health wise, obviously, and I have to constantly remind myself that it isn't my fault.
Love you guys and once again, I'm sorry I'm not up to work again.
So there you have it. I couldn't find a window in which to do all this concentrating and typing sooner, so sorry about that. Full disclosure, I
have typed a
few sentences on the 'net in the past week, but they were bot-style, minimalist efforts that didn't require ongoing engagement or too-much specificity. I can't even bring myself to check my email.
I fear that my autoimmune's gonna mean that even once I get on top of this, the shingles are gonna be there lying in wait, ready-to-pounce. Hopefully I'll be able to keep it at-bay indefinitely once this is over. Right now I'd just love to see daily improvement, which unfortunately is not yet the case.
Anywho, that's the full disclosure we've come to expect from the mods here so there you have it.

Thank you so
very much again for your empathy and prayers guys!
