I went to a new doctor today to get a leg up on these freekin' migraines. This doctor practices Integrative Medicine. I can't find any succinct explanation of this to link you to. Basically, it's a doctor who treats you as a whole person, body/mind/spirit, and works to promote health and prevent disease. No miracle pills here. Thank God. I hate miracle pills. They may cause drowsiness, constipation, restless leg syndrome, dry mouth, fatigue, sexual disorders, warts, diarrhea, fungus, wheezing, hair loss, irritability, depression, suicidal tendencies, birth defects and upset stomach.
He's going to re-check my thyroid medication. And he recommended I supplement with magnesium, riboflavin, and chromium. He said that he has patients come in when they're having a migraine and he gives them a magnesium I.V. and it stops it cold. Dang.
We got off on a side conversation about where I work and he said people in that state of mind (incarcerated) put off a certain type of brainwave and if I don't have control over my environment there that they can overwhelm me with their icky-type brainwaves. He gave me some CDs from this guy. Interesting.
I'll keep you posted.

Sounds like torture if you ask me!
Heal me, Oh Great Mistress of Pain!
We don't torture,Marilyn. Remember, The Decider said we don't torture. He should know.
you heathens are obvoiusly tremendously uneducated in the topic of pilates and I feel quite bad for you. the whole point is to STOP the bad pain that is happening in you body, silly girls
What...Ordained Pilates Priestesses lose their sense of humor?
BTW, all you Dhyana-lovers out there...Dhyana passed her exam to be a Pilates instructor. She already got a job on campus doing it for next year. You might want to give her a great big sloppy kiss for being good and talented and a hard worker and a hug just for being cute. She accepts cash, too.
