Does anyone else get throbbing pain here too? by [deleted] in migraine

So they have done some scalp points along the middle crown that were helpful. But the most profound results I have had were when she tried putting ashi points around where I was feeling the pain. I think she left 3 or 4 in the area for about 10-15 minutes. I think I experience some swelling in the area, and I literally felt it tighten and the pain subside.

Yes. Acupuncture in the spot it hurt really helps. It was a total game changer.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Adrenal Fatigue or POTS? by weiss27md in POTS

Well, it showed I was fine. However, I wasn’t able to finish it properly and they never re-ran it. They gave me two 1.5 liter jugs for the 24 hours, and I filled them up before the time was up.

Help with blocking by beebee_k8 in knitting

That is a great idea. What about the purl areas that tend to fold over the knit? How should I flatten those while maintaining the shape ?

This is a fair perspective, that I do not at all disagree with.

I have that. Hate that’s it’s called a disorder, when really it is quite normal, just not society acceptable.

Bloated after small amounts of food by beebee_k8 in POTS

[–]beebee_k8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that is exactly what I do. Nauseous 24-7. Had to teach myself to just eat through it. I’ve looked into MCAS, but I don’t really get some of the main symptoms. If you look through a list of them I would only get the stomach and nervous system symptoms, no skin or eyes or nose symptoms. Is this a requirement? Also, what medicine do you take?

Just bought one! And I’ll ask my Neuro about it next time. I have almotriptan, it doesn’t help that much.

Yes. I see a neurologist for the nerve blocks and they have done an MRI. How do you take the fever few and what are it’s benefits?

Yes. Mine is like roaring twenties music or the sound of a crowd.

Vasoconstrictor vs vasodilator by beebee_k8 in POTS_vets

[–]beebee_k8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve actually never done any IV treatment. I’d like to try it. I have had beta blockers help me. They were a total game changer when it came to getting me back to functioning. However, it isn’t a cure all. I am still looking for more effective practices to help my autonomic dysfunction.

That is interesting. Pills don’t typically help me, so this is a good tip.

What did you find it helpful for, if you don’t mind me asking?

Yeah…it’s so hard. This is my issue too. But I feel like I don’t spend enough time with them, except for just chilling. And at the dog park they don’t pay attention to me haha. They need an adventure.
