So I'm going to answer based on your dose by the mixing ratio..... as 12iu is not what you mean since you are clear that you mixed 5000iu HCG with 10ml bacteriostatic water. That means there are 500iu in each ml. When drawing out your dose, you mean .12cc or ml, because that is what the insulin syringe measures, not IU's. To be more clear, you can refer to your dose as drawing to 12 or .12 (according to the numbers on the syringe--they are the same measurement). Posting this so that it is clear to anyone else reading.

You want to raise your dose to either 25 (125iu) or 30 (150iu). As for the dose of 75iu, it is just under what we consider the minimum effective dose of 80iu. We usually advise people not to go below 80iu. But bodies are different and its possible that 75iu was a just barely effective dose for you. How is your hunger hunger level with that dose?

It would probably be wise to move you up to 125iu rather than 150iu because of your past history. Try starting with that and see how you do. You may find this protocol is a lot easier than you have become used to.

That dose of 12 or 12.5 would be correct if you had mixed 5000iu with 5ml bacteriostatic water. We call that a 1:1 mix, and that is the way most clinic pre-mix or recommend. You mixed 1:2, which is preferred, but when you change that ratio, you also have to change the dose amount. The formula I linked you to should make clear how that works.

If dose is right, you have no hunger, and in fact, its not unusual to forget to eat. Some will have a little bit of hunger right before mealtime, but then when you eat, you might not even want to finish your small portions. That's what being on the correct dose looks like.

I have not had covid, so can't speak from personal experience. But from my research, I have found that the tests are not all that accurate. So I would just treat any symptoms he has like it was an allergy or a cold, because that is basically how the current strain of covid is manifesting anyway. If you do get a positive, you might consider Frontline doctors I-MAP protocol that outlines a easily obtainable treatment plan that can help keep the virus from doing too much damage.

If you are quite sick, its really not a good idea to continue the diet. A mild sickness you can power through, but if you are fighting off something major, you don't want to further stress your body by continuing the diet. The protocol does put quite a bit of stress on body systems, particularly the liver because it is having to process the things released as your fat is utilized. About rebound weight, all I can say is my sister had covid and was nauseous and throwing up everything for over a week. There was no weight gaining going on. Of course, that is not a great maintenance plan, but its likely he'll feel poorly enough he not going to want to be eating a lot.

Pulling for you both in the coming days and any decisions you will be making.

Glad your dose change has given you a good result.
