Coronavirus update
Laura Hoehn • March 17, 2020
As of this date, 3/17/2020, we are unable to see patients that are experiencing fever, body aches or cough type symptoms. With the pandemic of Coronavirus, we are taking all precautions to protect as many as we can and slow the spread. The testing for the coronavirus is limited and we are not equipped for testing. Therefore, anyone experiencing symptoms of coronavirus will need to call the nurse triage line with their clinic to get further direction or present to the emergency room. They have protocols set up that will keep patients and healthcare workers safe. This is a quickly evolving situation so if any changes occur, we will keep you updated.
If you are scheduled for a visit and have any symptoms that include fever, cough, runny nose, nasal congestion, sore throat, body aches, abdominal pain or diarrhea we can’t see you in the clinic. However, please call and we can change your visit to a telephone visit. This is an option also for anyone who does not wish to leave their house.
There are supplements which are useful in helping with your immune system and we do have recommendations. For the next couple of months, we recommend for adults Zinc 15-30 mg daily, Vitamin D3/K2 10,000 IU daily, and Vitamin C 1500 mg 1-2 times daily. If you are ill and need any supplements, please call us and we can meet you in the parking lot with your supplements. We truly apologize for any inconvenience this causes. Take care, God bless, and remember to wash your hands 😊

Many people with chronic symptoms are told their labs are “normal,” yet they still feel unwell. One overlooked reason is excess fibrin , a sticky structural protein your body naturally makes to heal injuries. It’s what happens when too much fibrin builds up over time and/or when your body can't break it down fast enough. Think of fibrin like scaffolding In small amounts, fibrin helps healing In excess, it can: Form protective shells (biofilms) around bacteria or viruses Hide infections from antibiotics and the immune system Stiffen blood vessels Interfere with circulation and healing This can help explain why some infections or symptoms never fully go away . Why does fibrin build up? There are two main reasons: 1. Some people make too much fibrin This can be genetic or driven by chronic inflammation (infections, mold exposure, autoimmune conditions). 2. Some people don’t break fibrin down well Their bodies don’t activate the enzymes needed to dissolve excess fibrin. Many people have both problems at once. How this can affect health Excess fibrin has been linked to: Chronic or recurrent infections Long COVID symptoms Brain inflammation (PANS/PANDAS) Fatigue and pain syndromes Pregnancy loss Heart and blood vessel disease Importantly, standard clotting tests often don’t detect this because they’re designed for emergencies, not slow buildup over years. Why treatment must be gentle and personalized Breaking down fibrin too quickly can: Release trapped toxins or microbes Increase inflammation temporarily Make symptoms flare That’s why the goal is balance , not “thinning the blood.” When done correctly, fibrin support: Helps the immune system see hidden infections Improves response to other treatments Supports long-term healing rather than short-term suppression Key Takeaway If you’ve tried “everything” and still feel stuck, the issue may not be what you’re treating - rather w hat’s been blocking your body from clearing it. Excess fibrin may be that missing piece. Action Plan If you think this may apply to you: Request the Hypercoag Reflexive3 Panel (Labcorp Test Code: 505443) Set up an appointment with your provider to discuss the results.
