Hi,
I'm sure I could give you a lengthy story, but I'm gunna try to summarize for you. Dave - 33 years old - Chandler, Arizona I suffered a severe concussion when 9 or 10 years old which gave me a Seizure Disorder (about 23 years ago). I was on Phenobarbital and then Dilantin til puberty set in. I've been seizure free for 20 years. I'm in good health. I exercise, take vitamins, eat right, don't smoke, drink on the weekends, no drugs. I have suffered from the following since 18 years old. - Headaches (constant dull pain) - Fuzzy thought (but I get by) - Memory problems (I'd tell you what they were, but I can't remember. ) - Depression (difficulty being happy at or feeling good, if I am happy it doesn't last longer than an hour.) - EASILY Irritable (my girlfriend can attest to this) - Dizzy (well it's kind of dizzy.. It's like I can't see straight/focus) - Trouble concentrating (I can't even focus on conversations many times) Anyhow, I've had CAT Scans and MRI's. Docs say everything looks fine. I've tried anti-depressents which really messed me up bad (I had EVERY side effect possible) and I've also tried therapy, shrinks, books, meditation... I've tried pretty much everything... but, Then I found some articles talking about Neurotherapy, and I've been looking into this pretty seriously. I'm an Audio Visual technician, so I'm comfortable with computers and technology. I would REALLY like to try this kind of therapy, but the devices and the software are really expensive. So this brings me to my questions. 1.) Could Neurotherapy help me? 2.) How could a regular guy with regular insurance get a device and software 3.) Heck, can I build one and download the software? 4.) There are some clinics here in Arizona, is there some special routine for getting in there and treated? Thanks so much for reading. -Dave 33 / Chandler, Arizona p.s. When I was young I had a CAT scan and was able to alter my brainwaves to make the paper read out go crazy, and then was able to get it very quiet. I guess I was way ahead of my time. |
