Hi everyone,
With the amount of content on this platform, there appears to be low interaction. I am wondering if everyone is asleep or not getting notifications.
Please like and even better, comment below to let us know.
How notifications work: When we put a post up, an email is sent to the member. If you are not getting the emails, they may be ending up in SPAM (which was happening to me) or maybe you turned them off?
It looks like there are people on. The system is showing me 786 "views" in the past week, but I don't know what that is measuring or how accurate that it.
Please let me know!
Thank you.
Josh

Sudden improvements in mental state, confidence in movement, and improved strength.
There is a medication called Auvelity. Its a combination of Dextromethorphan and Wellbutrin (bupropion).
Dextromethorphan is normally used as a cough suppressant in OTC cough syrups from what i understand by reducing the overfiring of nerve impulses that cause cough. In higher doses though it can cause loss of some motor function, make it harder to coordinate movement, and can impair some receptors associated with memory. It can be classified in higher doses as a dissociative drug like ketamine. It is used recreationally by some people.
2-3 weeks off of this medication she feels alive and coordination is phenomenal but I saw changes week 1 ...

Found this the other day and wanted to share. Very good article to external link to show clinical research on many areas with acupuncture along with safety and efficacy in one place.

Sorry for missing the comments — I spent the last four hours in clinic treating 20 patients using electro-acupuncture. The invitation for tonight’s 8:30 PM webinar still stands and is open to everyone, including those who may have expressed themselves less professionally here. Anonymous attendance is welcome for anyone who prefers it:
