Now this is very wierd. It appeared on the board awhile back...originating with someone named "Dallyho". The suggestion was to put a plug of blue cheese under your tongue and leave it there....and rub your arms,chest,back etc with apple cider vinegar....uh...and then he added eating a hardboiled egg....search the archives.
yea...yea...I know! I said the same thing when I read it....
But I aborted 2 CHs with the cheese and vinegar and a third with only the cheese....I never did the egg.
It does not work for everyone....nothing does....it hasn't worked for my latest CHs....BUTT ...Is not anything worth a try?
There are a lot of other "off the wall" techniques in the archives. It is worth the search.
Miguel's "dark room, silence and stillness etc" is ,for me, torture. I demand distraction! Pacing,loud music,head banging...when the meds and O2 fail me.
Take hope in the knowledge that noone has proved that CH is hereditary.
Sweet Dreams.... to you both.
