MYTH OF FIBROMYALGIA?
Idea that Fibromyalgia is a myth persists. In 2009, I published (“Practical Pain Management”) announcement of cause. I sent Dr. Tennant, editor, a manuscripts entitled “Fibromyalgia-Finally The Cause”.

Dr. Tennant chose to change title to, “Sacroiliac Joint Disorder”; I was a country doctor without academic credentials. The article continues on-line. Gratefully, Dr. Tennant did not change the article content. He sent me a note, something like, “you will help many”.

I suspect the world medical community continues of one mind that the cause of Fibromyalgia is unknown, & that many doctors continue to question authenticity of such a disorder. Naysayers are simply ignorant.

At the 10th Interdisciplinary World Congress on Low Back & Pelvic Pain, Antwerp October 2019 (on line), I presented eight papers on my study of 50 people with Fibromyalgia. The lead paper announced the multifactorial causes of Fibromyalgia.

A sine qua non of Fibromyalgia is both lower & upper back pain. Non-refreshing sleep, daytime fatigue, depression, & cognitive disarray are common and all are symptoms resulting from non-restorative sleep; aroused by pain while trying to sleep.

#Thread on Tantra

The word ’Tantra’ literally means ‘loom’ in Sanskrit. There are several differing explanations as to what this word means. According to one source, this name is supposed to be a pun, and in order to understand it, one has to first understand the word ‘sutra’.

The key texts of Hinduism are known as sutras, a word which also means ‘formula or thread’. Therefore, if a sutra is a single thread of thought, then Tantra would be the loom that produces these threads of thoughts into a whole system of thoughts.

As a comparison, another source suggests that Tantra is a combination of two words, ‘tattva’ and ‘mantra’, which mean the science of cosmic principles and the science of mystic sound and vibration respectively.

In other words, Tantra may be regarded to be “the application of cosmic sciences with a view to attain spiritual ascendancy.”

In the beginning of Satyuga, Lord Shiva appeared in the form of Swacchandanatha, with his five mukha(mouth), namely Ishana, Tatpurusha, Sadyojata,

Vamadeva & Aghor. These mukhas represent his 5 energies, namely, Consciousness, Bliss, Will, Knowledge & Action. He manifested Tantras through his 5 mukhas (energies), some given by each of his mouth while others recited by him through two or more than two mouths simultaneously.

Folks, we need to talk about this Vitamin D trial. I have no stake in this game - take Vitamin D if you want but this pre-print is super sus.

The paper is presented as a randomized trial of vitamin D supplementation in hospitalized patients with COVID. Interesting and important question! And the results appear dramatic:

If true, this would be one of (if not THE most) effective treatments for COVID. But there are problems...

The first clue something is up is that the randomized groups aren't the same size:

It took me a while to figure out why this was, then I saw in the text that INDIVIDUALS were not randomized, WARDS in the hospital were.

Me: Made a thread about how people don't understand hyperacusis and give advice that obviously I've already tried.

This person only a few tweets into the thread:

I only tweeted this because, like it or not, this is the general population's reaction to me talking about hyperacusis.

Similar replies happened when there was the whole "not clapping" article regarding Cambridge.

They're so quick to label disabilities as not real disabilities.

It's important to remember this when people may ask why we've never talked about this before, or why it's not talked about a lot.

Most people don't talk about their hyperacusis because if they do, people respond like this. So most of the time, honestly it's easier to say nothing

Yes I am petty enough to add screenshots of this toxicity to this thread:

Asking for accessibility is "pathetic." /s : )
