    Huge hugs Flash, Mini-Flash a triumph over adversity, well done.
    Yourself, so stoical and positive - keep well.
    Thanks for the James Newell info, how did you do it - online/Skype? Can’t do Skype myself, but would love to unravel ‘stuff’.
    Hope all goes well with treatments

    yes with James we audited through skype, although he told me that if I continued, at one point, we would have to meet. Nothing definite yet. Also, he had met me in Laughlin and we had talked. I am not sure he does not have to meet you for a first session, you would have to ask him.

    thanks for your wishes, Paula, Kristin and Avid.

    I should add: Gosh AM I HAPPY FOR SOCIAL MEDICINE. TREATMENTS ARE FREE. And i have no health insurance (some do for private services when working for big enterprises). I could never have afforded it, ever, being diabetic.

    Reading yesterday some of the threads I found them difficult to read and comprehend how difference in opinions could cause so much antagonistic feelings. Members getting hurt and not trying to walk in somebody else shoes.

    What I have learn in my sixty years of life is that you have to put everything in perspective and see what is really important in life. Why get so mad with somebody you know has its mind all set with a certain thinking. Is it that important to get your point through ?
    We are just passing through life. Don’t waste time getting all worked up with things that in a few months or years would seem they were not worth it.

    Just love. Give love. Give your time to others. Focus on the important and worthy things in life. Getting mad with somebody in a forum is not it.
    Sorry I cannot participate in the “ serious “ threads. My english is not good and I cannot defend my point of view in another language. But I love this forum and I continue learning.
    My 2 cents.

    Edit:spelling correction.

    Just lately, after reading so many divisive threads, and wondering WHY are these folk going down this vile circulatory ‘plug hole’ of negativity, is there something all-pervasive in the ether at the moment? Has something been ‘sprinkled’ into our sensibilities to stir up such unusual traits?
    Hopefully not........
    Otherwise, all I want to do lately - checking in a few times a day as usual - is AAAAARRGGGHHH! Give us a break you negative folk, go away for awhile until you can contribute something positive, helpful news, interesting facts, happy incidences....

    Minor venting I'll place here cause I don't mean to keep bumping my cluster headache thread. Also these type of 'venting' posts I'd rather get buried in the net in threads like this than stand out.

    Last night was absolutely vicious. It took every drop of energy not to lose control due to the pain. Somehow I pulled it off and got through it though. Like I said before I just wish folks could understand the gravity of the situation. The sense of panic that the pain brings on is about as bad as the pain itself. You want to 'do' something - anything - to make it stop but it just wont no matter what. Only thing to do is try and remain calm and not give in to despair; then the pain takes off like wildfire and you're just along for the ride. This is where CH's get their terrible nickname.
    Today is victory over yourself of yesterday. Tomorrow is your victory over lesser men.

    Sorry for your pain, Strat. Migraines are brutal. I use to get them. For the two worst, I went to the hospital for a demerol shot. On one of those trips, I’d hit my head against the window for second or two of relief.

    My lifestyle has changed since those days. Gone are: stressors, vampiric friends and family, environmental factors such as mold and mildew and diet (especially dairy; cheese was the worst). This past May was my 31st year doing Tai Chi...small, incremental changes netted big results. Now I may get a headache once a year.

    What can cause a migraine?

    Doctors are not sure what exactly causes migraines. But, many things can trigger a migraine. Different people have different triggers, which can include:
    • Stress or anxiety
    • Changes in hormones (in women)
    • Bright lights, loud sounds, and strong smells
    • Smoking
    • Drinking alcohol
    • Certain foods, such as chocolate, cheese, salty foods, or processed foods
    • Food additives such as MSG (sometimes added to Chinese food) or aspartame (an artificial sweetener)
    • Not getting enough to eat
    • Not getting enough sleep
    • Intense physical activities
    • Changes in the weather
    • Some medicines


    This is Dr. Yang Jwing Ming, my Tai Chi teacher. The vid begins with warm ups. Jump to 13:22 for the Chi Kung exercises. Chi Kung is simply running energy through the body. A slow, steady breath is beneficial to the practice.
