Comment on A non-chemical approach to “rls” by Cameron

Your quest for good health is like a detective in a mystery novel. You follow leads, which sometimes net results. Then you encounter dead ends. Then some other clue takes you in a new direction. More results. Then more dead ends and MORE clues!

But through it all, you are indeed progressing through the mystery novel and it is my sincere hope that the mystery is SOLVED before you reach the Big Kahuna in The Sky!

Comment on Is it dystonia? by eaubeauhorn

Patrick,
Jan Kagarice is a wonderful resource but may not have time for you if you are not a professional. Dystonia is not a practice problem; one of the ways you will solidify a self-diagnosis is to see if intensifying your practice makes your condition worse. Embouchure injuries can appear to be dystonia, and dystonia can appear to be an embouchure injury. You may have found your answer by now since it’s been a few weeks. Best of luck; I still play but not at my former level. It is possible to recover but does take a huge commitment, which at my age (60) I found I didn’t really have in me.

I DISCOVERED YOUR WEB PAGE WHILE LOOKING FOR INFO ON FOCAL DYSTONIA. I WASSEARCHING FOR LITERATURE ON THE TOPIC EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT SURE IT ACTUALLY IS THE PROBLEM I AM EXPERIENCING.
GORDON CHERRY OF THE VANCOUVER SYMPHONY HAD GIVE ME JAN KAGARICE’S NAME AS SOME ONE TO CONTACT.
HOW DO I TELL IF DYSTONIA IS MY PROBLEM OR JUST AIR SUPPORT LACK OF REGULAR PRACTICE OR OTHER THINGS?

Hi
I stumbled here accidentally. Nice blog! How come so few comments? You’ve got such a great blog. Ok, back to your post. I think a certain amount of cautious disbelief is natural and healthy. Cautious wild animals live, trusting ones get noshed up by predators. It’s a basic instinct to doubt and be wary.

I saw a few ghosts/spirits as a kid, then went to school and started doubting myself. Funny enough – I went to a convent school that sounds so much like yours it is scary. It was our music teacher nun who had a nervous breakdown. We were awful to her, thinking back, but kids can smell fear the same way sharks smell blood and neither shows mercy!

It’s taken me 40 years to trust my abilities and I still double check every time. For me the proof came very recently – January 2009 in fact. I sometimes pick up words/thoughts from a friend’s guide. I had thought it was probably my imagination, I’m somehow creating this myself… etc etc. Then, this January, I had a long chat with this guide. I never told my friend and basically we dit a bit of gossiping about him spirit-to-human and I felt sheepish to admit it. The next day my friend posted a message from his guide on a psychic forum – it contained a sentence (word perfect) that I’d spoken to this guide, completely unknown to my friend.

But I still doubt myself in so many ways… no wonder my own guide despairs. (he does despair well too – lots of wringing of hands and gesturing since I don’t hear him, for some reason)

That was a pretty quick comment, Cameron! I only posted that a few minutes ago. Wow…must be a wavelength thing.

Your reactions are definitely those of a Scholar in its pure form of seeking information.

It certainly doesn’t matter that you don’t “believe”. You will evolve in any case.

Comment on Restless legs syndrome by andy

Hi Eaubauhorn. You are so right about the mental allergy thing. It’s like a fever with me and I’m sure it’s related to brainwaves hence the fact it comes in the middle of the night for 2 or 3 hours then goes around 4am before deep sleep.
I’m still looking for the miracle cure. But these things work very well for me: a big mug of tea (not tea bags but proper indian leaf tea, strong). The burning in back and legs goes in 15 mins most times I have tea but not every time and somehow the caffeine doesn’t stop me getting to sleep. Sleeping on a very hard surface and/or rough surface. Best combination is on the floor with just a thin rug under me and a rough old towel that’s been drip-dried and not folded so its slightly rougher than if it’s tumbled and folded.
I might try the diary thing. I have a bad allergy to brazil nuts and if I get a reaction by eating some by mistake the same very specific areas for rls in my back and legs go into cramps half an hour after eating them.
It would be very interesting to know if anyone has had same experience as me on any of these things/ remedies. Andy

I too experienced Sekhmet as that presence of strength. She seems to be rising all over the place. A fiercesome teacher is she my friend.

Aaack….sorry, I thought I was replying to Laura’s comment when in fact I was editing it. I lost her comment and can’t get it back, but I’ll still leave my reply.
Phooey.

Laura,
I just got back to my blog after some weeks away from it. I’ll be curious to hear if giving up various foodstuffs is helpful. I find it can take a couple weeks, and often the real eye-opener is to re-start the food after being off it for two weeks, and seeing the negative result.

My doctor has decided to agree with me that the cause of my particular problem is actually leaky gut, which is usually caused by an invasive candida infection. Since I react to a food within about 30 minutes of eating it, that indicates that it is getting through the intestine before it is completely digested; undigested proteins are called peptides, and in my case, they irritate my brain, and my brain sends out signals that give awful sensations and cause muscle jerks. The leg problems don’t have anything to do with my legs. If changing the sensation to your legs (like wrapping them or hitting them) has an effect, that could be just because the new sensory signals interfere with the signals the brain is sending out, so you feel better.

I think an allergy to wheat is often a mis-diagnosis of a gluten allergy, and much better results will be gotten by going completely off gluten for several months. It is difficult to do, but worth it in results. I don’t bother with medical tests; I just do my own tests and seem to get more reliable results.

Best of luck…I know this is a maddening problem. My latest reaction is to the intestinal fiber I was taking; I was about going nuts before I figured it out. Something new is always showing up for me, and I wonder if I’ll end up not being able to eat anything at all.

Comment on One solution to joint pain by charlie

Thanks for sharing. This is really interesting. I’m pretty healthy all around and I’m only 27 but my finger joints started aching a few months ago, and it hasn’t ever really gone away. I don’t know what triggered it – one morning I woke up and they were just stiff and throbbing. I do have a family history of arthritis though.

I’ll give this a try. I’m glad you found something that helped you that didn’t involve drugs.
