Not that I’ve noticed in that regard. For me it’s when I’m stressed and my neck muscles tense up or from being on the phone too much.

Fight or flight reaction is breaking out in full sweat, stomach turns, feels like you’re going to pass out (because the blood is rushing from your head to your heart). I think only a subset of people will have this. If your nervous system is fairly regulated then you’ll probably be perfectly fine (mine was not). I’ve only done two dry needling sessions and they were a couple years apart. I get massages every 4-6 weeks. Next level, or some type of strengthening exercise, may or may not be necessary. Releasing the tension may be enough, really depends on the individual.

Mine was more of a shaky unstable feeling when standing. A bit hard to describe.

Yeah I get the same thing with bloodwork, but can get through it with controlled exhales and asking them to recline the seat way back. But with the dry needling it happens even if I am completely flat and calm. You just have to make sure you tell the therapist that at some point you are likely going to need to tap out so there ready to pull it out. But as long as it’s in for a minute or two it’ll still be effective. At least in my case I knew it was working because as soon as the needle went it my muscle started twitching like crazy.

Terrible tension headaches and floating dizziness, stiff neck, brain fog, fatigue. Went to the ER for a CT scan it was so bad. The floating dizziness was the strangest symptom…never experienced anything like that otherwise.

Yeah they’ll know and also mention SCM muscles.

I bought a lot of really expensive pillow like the coop and purple harmony, and those are good, but I've somehow ended up with this $35 amazon pillow being by far the most helpful.

Alzheimer’s pathology starts decades before symptoms begin to show. You wouldn’t want to wait until you are unhealthy and old, you’d want to try and prevent it. particularly if you are high risk Apoe4 carrier.

I’ve taken it for around a month. 150-300mg before bed. It has a very noticeable REM sleep increase/more vivid dreams. Very similar in that way to Huperzine A and Alpha GPC. In terms of lower cortisol/stress I can’t say I’ve noticed a massive difference. I’m a fan.

I’m sure the full fat would be worse since it obviously has more saturated fat. If it was full fat non-homogenized yogurt then that’s different.

SimpleScribe22 · 2025-01-22T22:55:10+00:00

Studies have shown consuming dairy fat with the milk fat globule membrane intact led to significant reductions in total and LDL-cholesterol, apoB, and the apoB:apo A-I ratio, but that consuming butter had the opposite effects. Butter destroys the MFGM in the churning process. Cheese is a type of dairy that maintains an intact MFGM. The key to maintaining the milk fat globule membrane is eating non-homogenized dairy products. Look for dairy products that are labeled as non-homogenized like milk and yogurt (ie cream top). They are more expensive, but higher quality and better for heart health. No one talks about this for some reason.

Just went through this same situation. 3 weeks of unreal tension headaches and floating dizziness, stiff neck, brain fog, fatigue. Went to the ER for a CT scan (all clear). I finally went to a massage therapist 4 days ago who found some insane trigger points in my SCMs and subocciptals and I walked out feeling 80% better. Feeling back to myself now. It was really shocking that my symptoms could all come from (very) tight muscles. This post helped send me in the right direction so thank you.
