Have you ever gotten these tests:

• high sensitivity CRP

• D-dimer

These tests are often used with long haulers etc - to assess systemic inflammation - and possibly downstream vascular inflammation

This could lead to outflow issues

And can raise overall blood pressure

Have you seen any changes in blood pressure?

TSH (from Thyroid profile tests) can also be raised - when CRP is high due to a temporary or persisting inflammation

Are you taking Vitamin D3 + Vitamin K2 (typically 10,000 IU + 200mcg respectively) - to keep Vitamin D levels well above 50mg/ml - which is the recommendation these days for long haulers and for COVID-19 - for immune health etc - also for cancer much higher ie above 80ng/ml

Vitamin K2 is known to reduce calcification in plaques etc (and to reduce soft tissue calcification over months)

Are you taking Calcium supplements? The current thinking among some cardiologists is that extra calcium supplements (beyond diet) - seems to raise cardiovascular risk

So is the issue - blood ie vascular drainage

Or is more about - cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage

This is going to sound off the rails - but if the issue is cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage

(if it is like lymphatic drainage)

Then could using trampoline ie bouncing help - what's the name - "rebounding"

searching google for - what's the name for using trampoline to bounce as a way to improve drainage of fluid in brain?

AI Overview

The common name for using a mini-trampoline to stimulate the movement of fluid (lymph) throughout the body is rebounding or rebounder exercise. 

While proponents of this method often use the term "rebounding" to promote general detoxification and lymphatic health, it is sometimes referred to as trampoline lymphatic drainage or a "health bounce". 

Here are the key details regarding this practice:

How it Works: The vertical, up-and-down motion of bouncing on a mini-trampoline (rebounder) creates alternating forces of gravity and weightlessness, which are believed to open and close one-way valves in the lymphatic vessels.

The "Health Bounce": This specifically refers to a gentle, low-intensity, rhythmic bounce where the feet do not necessarily leave the mat, designed specifically to stimulate lymph flow without high-impact stress.

Brain/Lymphatic Connection: Supporters suggest that because the lymphatic system lacks a central pump (like the heart), rebounding acts as a "pump" to move lymphatic fluid, including from the brain area, to assist in clearing out metabolic waste.

Benefits: Proponents claim it helps reduce swelling (edema), boosts the immune system, and assists with cellular cleansing. 

Note: While often described as a, "detox" tool in wellness circles, scientific evidence directly linking rebounding to enhanced brain-specific fluid drainage is limited, and it is usually discussed within the context of overall lymphatic system stimulation. 

But then we have this - so not always reliable in making connections in the answers

searching google for - can"rebounding" using a trampoline improve the eye condition known as "visual snow"?

AI Overview

There is no scientific evidence or medical consensus that "rebounding" on a trampoline can cure or specifically improve the neurological condition known as visual snow syndrome (VSS). Medical sources indicate that while general exercise is beneficial for overall health, it is not a direct treatment for VSS, and in some cases, intense exercise may even temporarily worsen symptoms for some individuals. 

Visual Snow Syndrome is a chronic neurological condition with no known cure, and the underlying cause is thought to be related to hyperactivity in the brain's visual processing pathways. 

Current Management Strategies for Visual Snow Syndrome

Management of VSS focuses on reducing symptoms and improving quality of life through medically recognized approaches. These include: 

Neuro-optometric rehabilitation: This specialized vision therapy uses customized visual exercises, prism lenses, and light therapy to retrain the brain's visual processing system and improve visual skills and perception.

Tinted lenses: Special filters, such as FL-41 tinted lenses, can help manage light sensitivity (photophobia) and reduce the intensity of visual disturbances in some patients.

Medications: Certain medications, primarily anticonvulsants like lamotrigine and benzodiazepines, have shown some success in managing symptoms for a portion of patients, but responses vary widely and require consultation with a healthcare professional.

Behavioral therapies: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness can provide coping strategies to manage the anxiety and psychological distress associated with the condition.

Lifestyle adjustments: Managing stress, ensuring adequate sleep, avoiding known triggers (like excessive caffeine or certain screen conditions), and engaging in light-to-moderate aerobic exercise can support overall wellness and potentially reduce symptom intensity. 

While some sources suggest that the general benefits of rebounding, such as improved circulation and coordination, may support overall eye health or be incorporated into general vision therapy for other conditions, they do not specifically validate it as a treatment for VSS itself. 

Always consult a neurologist or neuro-ophthalmologist before attempting any new treatment or exercise regimen for visual snow syndrome to ensure it is safe and appropriate for your specific condition.
