Real talk for a moment. Today I was looking on youtube, and I came across a video that was hm... highly sus.

In this video, a doctor claimed that he could treat very specific airway problems with something called "prolotherapy". And immediately, red flags went up because I was like, no... those specific airway problems happen because of nasal, jaw, or soft tissue structure issues. That's not something an injectable substance can cure.

Then I saw the rest of their channel and my jaw dropped.

In these 3 screenshots alone, here's a list of everything this quack claims to cure with "prolotherapy":

Cervical instability

Knee instability

Elbow instability

Knee injuries

Osteoarthritis

Being wheelchair bound

Big toe/bunion pain

Upper airway resistance syndrome

Vagus nerve degeneration

Lower back pain

POTS

Snapping scapula syndrome

Pes anserine bursitis

Thoracolumbar syndrome

Trigeminal neuralgia

Achilles tendon pain

Post-concussion syndrome

Seizures

"Atlas misalignment" (chiro stuff)

Wrist instability

Carpal tunnel

Scoliosis

If you're familiar with at least a few of these things, you'd know it's way more complicated than injecting some miracle cure into those areas. He also centers a lot of his videos around "cervical instability", which he attributes to causing all sorts of stuff:

Visual snow

Migraine

Itchy arms

White matter lesions

Dissociative episodes

Seizure disorders including absence seizures

POTS

MCAS

(Etc)

And he also uses terms that, if you google them, show up exclusively on his own website and nowhere else. One of the terms was cervical "dysstructure".

So um. Friendly reminder not to get sucked in by charlatans like this who claims to have a cure for a stupid amount of unrelated illnesses. You're just gonna get bilked out of your money, and you might even end up worse than before. These people prey on your desperation, and they're really good at it. Someone documented their experience with this "doctor" here. Reddit and other sites are full of negative reviews about him. Many people call him a scammer.

Don't let these quacks win. Do your research and take a breath before throwing money at them.

It took my savings and 14 years – but I'm about to cure arthritis

Okay, so I saw a post on my feed, and I didn't want to hijack OP's post, but the gist of it was that people need to have their pain acknowledged and not swept away under the rug of positive thinking or "happy vibes"...

As someone who deals with the chronic pain of osteoarthritis and with clinical depression, I have a lot of thoughts on this issue that come from personal experience.

1) Yes!! Especially considering the fact that most people will be either lucky enough to not deal with a condition meaning they are in constant pain and/or will have their pain questioned or negated or denigrated by others (including professionals in the medical community), it is absolutely VITAL that conditions with chronic pain be acknowledged and validated.

2) For many of us, the sad facts are that: a) our conditions are mislabeled, misunderstood, or mistreated (even by the aforementioned medical professionals); b) the treatments are available, but unaffordable; c) the treatments are available, but we cannot use them due to adverse reactions, other underlying conditions, or (as is my case with my bum knees) the current treatments available have limited shelf-lives, and thus cannot be used until a certain age or catastrophic damage allows for an exemption; or, d) the treatment/science simply has not advanced to deal with the issue.

3) If you are dealing with a chronic pain issue, you ABSOLUTELY need people in your corner giving you positive vibes, happy thoughts, prayers, or even silly cat videos to help keep your spirits up! It does not invalidate your condition to have people in your corner, especially ones trying to inject positivity into your life. If I did not have a support group- and yes, there are plenty of bad days where it feels like I don't- then I would be much worse off than I am.

4) Cultivating a positive attitude takes a conscious effort. My biggest motivation in trying to stay positive is actually an inverse example of this: my grandmother worked hard her whole life until well after retirement age, but when she fell and broke her leg, she just gave up; instead of doing the PT exercises to get back on her feet, she relied on pain meds (ones that never really worked fully) to get through her days. Her singular goal had become "to not feel any pain". She stopped walking unassisted, and eventually stopped walking altogether, because "it's too painful". She was never a big reader, so all she did was sit in front of the TV watching game shows or news programs- things that only inspired envy or a doom and gloom mentality. For the last years of her life, she became someone I didn't recognize and someone I didn't want to spend time around. She was bitter, angry, self-centered, and lonely, and in spite of all the prescription drugs the doctors let her have due to her age, she was still in constant pain...

So, yeah, chronic pain sucks, and yes, positivity doesn't "cure" it. But wallowing in the pain, refusing to focus on ways to either mentally or physically alleviate the pain, makes you the kind of person who no one wants to be around. And no, it's not easy trying to stay positive either, but it DOES make enduring what cannot be treated easier. And it means that your support group is less likely to distance themselves from you.

man i really am so bummed about this osteoarthritis especially since the steroid injection did fuck all. everyone else my age and older gets injuries sure but there's no cure for osteoarthritis and i literally can't even do low impact exercise. i was waiting for the pool to open but it's been pushed from september to may next year in typical bri ish fashion. so like. girl now what.

[astroyongie]

Yongie for any physical pain you can take collagen supplements. Especially if it's from fish. I have a torn tendon at my elbow. I was in pain for 3 months despite strong medication. 1 one week of taking collagen I noticed a significant reduction of pain. Now it's been a month and I made more progress in one month with collagen than 3 under anti inflammatory pills and physical therapy.

So maybe you can look into it :) it won't cure your hernia but there's a high chance of it making you day to day life easier. I take mine in powder form, I take the neutral flavor because the flavored one doesn't taste good.

Hope it can help anyone. I know it helps for muscles pain, joints pain, tendon pain, ligaments also, osteoarthritis and so on.

Thank you so much for sharing this with me. I’ll definitely look into it.

My doctor prescribed me some painkillers with small doses of codaine and the first months I took it during agude pain it worked very well but my body got used to it too easily and it wouldn’t work anymore.

Now I usually don’t take anything. I just wait for it to leave. But I’ll definitely try it out thank you so much ❤️

In my personal experience being a person with hospital level OCD, OCD is one illness that is rarely if ever discussed and is severely misunderstood. There is no general public knowledge of the disorder beyond 'videos to cure your OCD' or being a neat freak. It's so isolating. You feel like you're the only person on planet earth who lives like a freak.

OCD is among the top ten most disabling disorders according to the WHO, on a list that includes Alcohol Use, Osteoarthritis, Congenital defects and Schizophrenia. I get accommodations for it in school because it is disabling.

But no one knows this. No one talks about it. Outside of flipping the lightswitch ten times or washing your hands and organizing your clothes your average person has no knowledge of the real internal symptoms of the disorder, which are horrid to live with. I destabilize if I even say or see the words associated with my triggers. If I encounter my trigger it's a breakdown, no matter how mild. I can't have a roommate because of it. It's getting hard to write even this paragraph because the thought of the thought of the trigger is paralyzing.

There aren't any dedicated medications for it like ADHD or anxiety- I'm on antidepressants because that's the closest you can get to finding something that can manage it. The only thing that has managed to curb the symptoms is a breakthrough treatment that involves neuromodulation (sending electrical currents through my brain).

Fear of being a pedophile isn't even the worst of it. It's all you can think about. You physically have to force your brain to shove the thoughts into a box knowing they're just gonna come back out. Imagine going about your day while having to hold a brimming glass of water at arms length without any spills, and the spills are when you're crossing the street and get caught in a five minute imaginary supercut of getting hit by a bus before the walk light had even turned white.

I would go on, but the specifics aren't comfortable. I wish nobody had OCD. It's the worst.

Why the development of medicines and pharmaceutical drugs should not rely on animal testing

By Dr Pandora Pound, Fellow Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics     The other day I flicked through the NHS website, looking at a range of different diseases. If you try this, you’ll come across a menu of Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis and Treatment for each disease. I was shocked to see how frequently, when clicking on ‘Treatment’, some form of the following words appear: ‘There's currently no cure for such and such disease, but medication is available that can (temporarily) control / reduce/ relieve the symptoms ….’.  Alzheimer’s Disease, which – along with dementia – is the UK’s leading cause of death, is a case in point. My father had Alzheimer’s. As a journalist and editor he’d worked with words all his life and had always been impeccably correct about his grammar. But soon after he retired we noticed that he began to lose and jumble his words. After he died at the age of 77, we found notebooks in which he’d tried time and again to spell words correctly. On a scrap of paper, he’d practised my mother’s name and a birthday greeting. He must have been aware that the words slipping away, at least in the beginning.   There was no cure for Alzheimer’s then and there is no cure for Alzheimer’s now. Similarly, apart from surgery, there was nothing effective to offer my younger brother who died with a brain tumour at the age of 33. Twenty years after his death, the same treatments are being offered to people with his type of tumour: surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, all of which may delay the inevitable, but at a cost. I’m not unusual; most people know or love someone who suffers from a common disease for which there is no cure. In fact, compared with most people, I’ve probably got off lightly so far.    What makes a drug a success?  There was great fanfare recently for a new Alzheimer’s drug, lecanemab (brand name Leqembi), which was shown in a trial to reduce the rate of cognitive decline in people with mild impairment. The drug was hailed as ‘momentous’ and ‘historic’, but it is expensive, has to be administered via fortnightly intravenous infusions and requires multiple MRI scans due to the risk of potentially fatal bleeding in the brain. Moreover, it’s not even clear whether patients and their families will notice any benefit from the treatment, and there are serious questions about its value for women (a problem given that women are twice as likely as men to develop Alzheimer’s).1 Can this really be regarded as a success?  Set against the backdrop of the awe-inspiring technological advances that we hear about on an almost daily basis, I can’t help feeling shocked that we have so little to offer people with strokes, dementia, most cancers, brain injuries, multiple sclerosis, motor neurone disease, osteoarthritis, Crohn’s disease, Parkinson’s disease … the list goes on. Why has there been so little progress in medicine? After all, these failures come on top of decades and decades of research into these diseases. Why has it been so unproductive?    Animal research  Unfortunately, most of the research into these diseases has been conducted on animals. In this sort of research, scientists try to reproduce the disease in animals and then test new drugs on these animals. Although we’re used to hearing about new medical breakthroughs as a result of animal research, the sorry fact is that when these apparent breakthroughs are followed up years later, most of them come to nothing.2     As I explain in my book Rat Trap, new scientific evidence shows that animal research doesn’t actually translate to humans as well as we thought, so we can’t extrapolate what is found in animals to humans with any degree of certainty.3 This uncertainty is due to species differences; even very small differences between animals and humans can lead to significant changes in outcome, which is obviously problematic when it comes to developing drugs.   When pharmacologist, Dr Bob Coleman, began his career with the pharmaceutical giant, Glaxo, his arrival coincided with the discovery of some well-known drugs such as the bronchodilator salbutamol (marketed as Ventolin) and beclomethasone (Becotide). Much of the research into these drugs was conducted on animals, yet Coleman describes these successes as ‘lucky’, because other research programmes underway at the same time within the company came to nothing. The reason for this, he writes, ‘is simply that experimental animals have always been unreliable in their predictive power for human efficacy and safety, providing useful information on some drug candidates, but not on others’.4 This goes some way to explaining why over 90% of drugs that have been tested for safety and efficacy in animals go on to fail when tested in humans.5    Reliability of animal testing   Even the few drugs that go on to be licensed for use in the general population can have unexpected and serious adverse effects once they are prescribed in large numbers. The arthritis drug rofecoxib (Vioxx) passed tests in several different animal species yet it caused tens of thousands of excess cases of serious coronary heart disease in the US before it was removed from the market.6   Likewise, troglitazone (Rezulin), approved in the US in 1997 for the treatment of diabetes, was withdrawn in 2000 after reports of death and severe liver failure requiring transplantation. Animal studies had not predicted troglitazone’s potential to cause serious adverse effects in humans, yet tests on human cells and tissues strongly indicate its effect on the liver. Had they been used instead of the animal studies, these tests would have given clear warning signs.7    Human biology-based research  At Safer Medicines Trust, we believe that using human biology-based research is the best way to develop safe and effective treatments for patients. Such research has advanced in leaps and bounds over the last couple of decades and generates findings that are directly relevant to humans, making medical research much more reliable by cutting out the ‘middle mouse’. When you think about it, it makes no sense to investigate diseases in animals and then try to apply the findings to humans. It is much more sensible to study humans directly.   Scientists can now draw upon a range of innovative technologies that use human cells. Perhaps the most exciting of these is the ‘organ-on-a-chip’ – a chip the size of a computer memory stick which contains microscopic hollow channels that can be lined with living human cells taken from an organ and through which blood, air and nutrients can be pumped. Organ chips closely mimic the dynamic microenvironment that cells are exposed to within the human body and have been used to great effect.   In 2022, for example, a team led by Lorna Ewart from biotech company Emulate, used 870 liver-chips to test 27 drugs that had been judged safe for human use based on animal study evidence, but which had gone on to cause serious adverse reactions in humans, including liver failure and death. The liver chips were able to detect toxicity in almost seven out of every eight drugs that were toxic to the human liver, far outperforming tests in animals.8 How much harm might be averted if organ chips were used more widely in drug development and testing?   Computer modelling and artificial intelligence are also beginning to transform drug testing. An in silico software programme, DILIsym®, predicted that two migraine drugs (telcagepant and MK3207) would be toxic to the human liver, a prediction that led to their development being terminated even though animal studies had failed to raise any significant safety concerns. Had only animal studies been used, telcagepant and MK3207 may well have gone on to harm humans. Furthermore, DILIsym® predicted that a related drug, ubrogepant, would be relatively safe for the liver. This was confirmed in human trials and the drug was subsequently approved by the FDA.9 Such findings provide a glimpse of a much brighter future.    Studies of the human genome  As well as these awe-inspiring new technologies, we are now also able to draw on insights generated by studies of the human genome and microbiome, as well as tried and tested ways of gaining human data such as clinical trials. These approaches generate information and insights about us, not animals; they can be used to directly understand and treat human disease and have the potential to reduce adverse drug reactions and bring medicines to market more quickly and cheaply. But transitioning away from a reliance on animal research also means that we can start to think differently and ask different questions. Most animal experiments try to ‘model’ human disease at its advanced stages. By then the disease has already got its claws into us: most people die from cancer because the diagnosis comes too late, when the cancer is already too far advanced. But imagine if we could detect disease at its very earliest stages and intervene then, when treatment is likely to be considerably less invasive and much more successful.   The NHS is currently running a large, randomised screening trial in which people without a cancer diagnosis are given a blood test that aims to detect the very earliest signs of many different types of cancer. This blood test was developed on the basis of research on human tissues and cells and if successful, could be a complete game changer, especially for cancers that cannot usually be diagnosed until it is too late.10   Likewise, in America, some individuals at high risk of Alzheimer’s disease are being closely monitored with regular blood tests, wearable technologies and investigations of their microbiome, in research that aims to allow scientists to detect the very first signs of a transition to Alzheimer’s disease. This creates the possibility of intervening early on with tailor-made programmes consisting of exercise, dietary changes, drugs, supplements, removal of toxins and lifestyle changes. Excitingly, evidence is beginning to emerge that such programmes can maintain and even improve cognitive functioning.11,12   These remarkable new approaches have come too late for my father and brother, but they might benefit you and me, and perhaps our friends and relatives. This is modern medicine, and it’s based on human biology.   Photo by Daniil Zameshaev on Unsplash    ABOUT THE AUTHOR  Dr Pandora Pound is a Fellow of the Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics, an independent centre pioneering ethical perspectives on animals through academic research, teaching, and publication.

Check Out the Joint Medication for Dogs Everyone is Talking About!

Not sure about giving your pup joint meds for dogs?

If your dog is in pain and has difficulty walking, it is likely that joint and cartilage damage has already occurred. Joint medications for dogs may assist in the management of any existing symptoms of joint and cartilage damage, such as pain and inflammation. They may also help to prevent further joint and cartilage deterioration.

As a dog parent, you should be aware that many dogs develop joint and cartilage problems long before the associated signs and symptoms appear. Joint and cartilage problems can occur in any dog.

On the other hand, larger dog breeds, senior dogs, and dogs with a history of injuries are more likely to develop joint and cartilage issues.

Protecting your dog’s joints and cartilage

Have you ever heard the saying, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure?" Allow the saying to guide you as a dog parent in your efforts to protect your dog's joints and cartilage.

Many dog owners mistakenly believe that giving joint medication to their puppies is only necessary if the dog exhibits symptoms of joint and cartilage problems. This should not be the case because good joint and cartilage care should also include preventative measures.

As a new dog owner, I was unaware that even my young puppies needed preventive joint and cartilage care. That was until I attended a Vetz Pets awareness seminar in our area, where I learned the importance of working with a veterinarian to develop a comprehensive joint care plan for one's dog, regardless of age.

I also learned about dog mobility supplements and natural anti-inflammatory products that leading dog owners use to keep their furry friends free of arthritis and arthritis-related pain and inflammation.

Key ingredients in top joint meds for dogs 

At the Vetz Pets seminar, I also learned that it could be difficult to separate fact from fiction when it comes to dog mobility supplements and joint medications.

While knowing what everyone is talking about, especially those that are producing exceptional results for dog parents, is beneficial, researching what actually works and discussing any products you want to purchase with your veterinarian is essential.

Even though each dog's medication and supplementation requirements vary greatly, some of the joint medications for dogs and dog mobility supplements that everyone was talking about at the seminar included key ingredients like glucosamine, chondroitin, cannabidiol (CBD), omega-3 fatty acids, and green-lipped mussels (GLM).

Glucosamine aids in the relief of joint pain and inflammation caused by arthritis and joint damage. When its levels in a dog's body increase, the dog will feel less pain and have a greater ability to bear its weight.

Any popular joint medication for dogs that contains glucosamine also contains chondroitin. This is because the two ingredients have been shown to work best when combined. Experts believe that when the ingredients are combined, they are absorbed more quickly.

CBD has been shown to improve movement and reduce pain in dogs with osteoarthritis. Top scientists believe it has anti-inflammatory effects on a dog's body, which aids in the fight against arthritis and osteoarthritis causes. CBD holds a lot of promise for dogs with osteoarthritis because it may help control pain sensitivity.

Omega-3 fatty acids help boost the dog's body's natural anti-inflammatory properties, making products containing them beneficial for dogs suffering from arthritis-related inflammation.

GLM contains glycosaminoglycans, which are molecules that help lubricate joints, cartilage, and tendons.

Leading dog mobility supplements and joint meds for dogs

You may not have heard about the dog mobility supplements and joint meds for dogs that everyone is talking about.

All of these have been reported as safe for dogs to consume in appropriate doses by leading veterinarians and dog owners. Turmeric, Boswellia, Antinol for dogs, Dasuquin with MSM, Cosequin, Movoflex, Nutri-Vet Joint Health DS plus MSM, Duralactin, Elexadin, Vetoquinol Triglyceride OMEGA, and Zesty Paws Mobility Bites are a few examples.

Important reminder when choosing joint medication for dogs

As a dog parent, your dog's safety and health should always come first when deciding which joint med for dogs or dog mobility supplements to buy. Before beginning a new regimen, as with any other supplement or medication, consult with your veterinarian to ensure it is safe for your dog.

Cure where there is no cure

It dawned on me like a revelation This morning, we reviewed some previous specialist referrals in my chart at the doctor’s office. We talked about arthritis (osteoarthritis). I remarked that I was told there is no cure for arthritis but only some help to cope with the ailment. She in turn responded that if there was a cure she would not be seeing the patients she is now seeing. I sheepishly…

Bones

Bones are the holders of our DNA the tooth form part of our body system. Body system is formed of nerve system muscle and bone system lymphatic systems

Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis are the same diseases to autoimmune disease caused by bacteria as all diseases are caused by contamination.

How arthritis affects the joints of the limbs the same affects joints on the skull head.

Skull is not made of one bone it is made of lobes plates that form the a round shape.

Between lobes are cartilage joints which are affected by arthritis too which we cannot see unless X ray scan.

When arthritis or osteoarthritis affect your body it could be prominent in some joints than others. What we cannot see it does not mean it does not affect the body.

The brain essence of DNA and brain runs through the inner bone and spine. Brain is not only in a head it is in the essence of the bone marrow in a bone system.

1. Head big brain top of the body

2. Head small brain back if the neck

3. Spinal brain back of the body

Your back is not just bones it is a proper functioning brain 🧠.

Three brains not one three.

All brain have their functional structure.

The DNA 🧬 is normally protected in teeth in the essence of the bone. Natural soft tissue protection by calcium.

Osteoarthritis causes shrinking joints trapping nerves resulting in headaches tinnitus stroke dementia multiple sclerosis etc. The joints not visible in a skull can be causing headaches diseases because bones need feeding nutrients via joints. The body feeds nutrients the soft tissue through blood arteries capillaries while bones feed mostly through connective tissue. Bones have blood connectors through small blood capillaries which are affected by arthritis of the skull joints or joints of the limbs. Oxidative stress is internal cut off capillaries lack oxygen delivering nutrients to the bones of the skull.

Rheumatic arthritis affects big joints make joints cartilage classified bone instead of lubricating connective tissue.

Inflammation water retention water is a lymphatic issue, not the osteoarthritis issue.

The toxins must clean from the body via the lymphatic system which the body extracts through kidneys sweat and urine. Veins collect filthy blood.

Should you want to know more on discovering treatments health and prevention of permanent diseases Anatomy of the body extended knowledge.

Why some people have stronger cartridge while some have weak cartilage.

The cartridge is the flexor tissue a sprang coil that makes the body mobile in motion.

Limbs muscles and lines function by the non autonomous nerve system.

I am working in how intelligence is created and affected by DNA.

Theory is developed on practice. Know your body as you have one observe it it is the practical conclusion. We don't all have access to medical research and those who have won't do it. We can make our own theory and practice it just won't be clinical research so we have to label it non clinical.

I've had my theoretical and practical anatomy pass at University. I didn't go for pathology because I trust science can serve in the prevention of injuring and curing injured bodies.

POST 2

My life losing weight.

Around the age of 50, I realised I was gay, that I was attracted to younger men, seriously so, so my life changed. I lost friends and relatives, even estranged from my father.

So following on from my first post on twinks and why I lost weight, I continue here on losing weight again after 10 years of being gay. I done it all before see, I loved twinks, adored them. Decided I didn't want to be a BIG Daddy but a slim, fit sexy daddy. It worked, I got fitter, slimmer and wqs into gym, cycling and off the chocolate and cakes.

I met the guy of my dreams, I was 52 he was 22 and my life was great for so long. But with beer, cider, coke, chocolate and cakes as well as good food, I like to cook I got fatter, less sex and felt awful so following on from my first post I'm losing weight to get fit and healthier for the next 10 years at least, after all my father (who doesn't speak to me I know) is 82 this year and 20 years ago had a triple heart by pass so I reckon unless involved in a terrible accident I could last another 20 years, but I need to do it wisely.

DIET

I've reduced intake slowly, cut back slowly. I still eat chocolate rarely, still have the odd coke and still love cake but as much as possible I say no and my new friend is water.

WATER

I'm 60, and in those long years I've heard lots of diets, tried loads but the minute you say diet you could eat a horse, so mentally I felt I needed to sneak up and just slowly reduce my intake but still in the day you get hungry. So I heard years ago a solution which ballerinas do, drink cold water, it fills your tummy and keeps it quiet for a while anyway, but then as the day goes on its a trigger, tummy rumbles so I drink water, it grows in you and when the goals start appearing it seems to have worked for me.

WARNING

I'm NOT a dietitian, NOT a doctor, NOT qualified to advise people but I am old and have experience which I'm sharing. So if you want to lose weight, be sure you do it sensibly and if possible speak to your doctor on why and how to lose weight, after all everyone's different and it might be losing weight is not right for you.

SHARING

I'm retired, got time for myself but still not perfect, but... I want to share my experiences so you can see what's possible. It's not full proof, I still get hungry but I've got my self control, I've turned the barometer of hungry to knowing I need to be careful, if it's not time for food, then drink water or tell yourself, be patient food comes later.

EXERCISE

Like all things in life, little and often is the sensible way. Once told you could eat a whole elephant (REALLY) Yes, in small pieces and I've found at my age exercise needs to be just this to save too many aches and pains, after all I have osteoarthritis and if I over do it, I KNOW IT!! But 6 months on my exercises and stretches are helping and my once seriously painful should is now MORE flexible and LESS painful, but still work in progress.

OLDER

You can't stop it, but you can do it gracefully and in style. Osteoarthritis is horrible and in many of my joints but from the last 4 years I've found gentle exercises and stretching help. It's NOT a Cure, and sadly not always a good day but the good days outweigh the bad days and the flexibility in my once awful shoulder has improved 60%

MEDICATION

I've tried loads, but found like food they become easy to consume but NOT always the best! I've recently over the last year been cutting back on medication as well. Firstly sertraline, while it DID help, it's not good long term and you'll find you're not quite yourself, that without them you could have a better life (CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR before reducing medication)

I've weaned myself off sertraline, steady, slowly and in a sensible routine over a period of time. Now OFF them, and much better but not perfect, weeks of wet, dark cold weather and I wish I took them but walking and TELLING myself I'm happy helps.

MEDICATION part 2

I've stopped sertraline, omoprezol, reduced pain killers (co-codomol) to over the counter strength and working on reducing my Tranexamic Acid tablets for my angioedema. Again a slow process of reducing them, I've got another month to go but signs are OK atm.

MEDICATION part 3

Alternative medication, I take vitamins mainly, vit C with zinc and now Tumeric & pepper tablets which help a little.

RESULTS

I lost 1st 12lbs, my BP is now normal, I'm sleeping better, feeling better, more balance and more flexibility.

GOAL WEIGHT

10st to 10st 5lbs

As with life, this is all work I progress, I'm not as fit as I want to be, not at my GW, not without any pain but I know I'm vastly improved to where I was 12 months ago, amazingly improved from where I was two years ago and it will get better.
