You can workout now then you say bro? At how many months in could you?......Man, I gotta lift n workout haha.....Im losin it. I did light light weightlifting for a while on the amitriptyline and felt ok....(then I tried upping the weight and felt like a hot bag of garbage again)or which I didnt know what was right anymore since I felt so bad before......I recently read the U of Buffalo Sports and Medicine Concussion Clinic studies and website, which is regulated exercise, which would be cardio on a stationary bike, and it regulates the cerebral blood flow back so it says, since you brains oxygen and bloodflow is wacked from the blows to the head. I spoke with one of the dr's and I'm debating on going to Buffalo over the summer for 3 months of their treatment. I read that many athletes have gone there and have returned to their sports(which I know Im done with rugby or contact sports) or feeling them selves again....... Another question if you don't mind haha......what do think about drinking? I can drink sometimes and feel good after getting through 3 or 4 beers......or sometimes I feel like hell, slowed down, hazy like you have experienced....and I never had been a pot user, but have heard good things.....I appreciate the post back bro.......Hope all is well and take care |

Yo Erica!
Hey I havent seen any of your posts Im sorry! I havent been on here in a while......As for the Buffalo clinic I talked to the lady at the desk and she gave me Leddy's email.......It won't let me post his email on here because I onyl have 5 posts?? But here it's his last name((Leddy)at Buffalo.edu).......I called today and the lady told me to call back Monday when He and this other lady will be back to set up an appointment. I am not from the Buffalo area so I'd be in the same shoes as you, but it's seems as the one of the few things left that would help.......I know they do gradual cardio exercise and make your own individual workout, which they control your heart rate etc with monitors and breathing machines........ I'm hoping I get in for this summer! Let me know if you get ahold of them! |

LENS training is not known by most doctors because it is not approved by the FDA for diagnosing or treating any disease or injury. It has been around since 2006. It has an "exemption" status with the FDA. It can only be promoted as a relaxation device.
There are other true neuro-feedback systems (volitional neuro-feedback requires the patient to act to make the brain behave a desired way). LENS is a non-volitional neuro-therapy system. The patient does nothing but sit while the LENS device does its thing. This subject has been discussed extensively in prior threads.
