Podcasts about vestibular

In this AJNR Podcast Author Interview, Dr. Francis Deng and Dr. Amy Juliano discuss how CT can subtype Menière disease by assessing the vestibular aqueduct and adjacent bone. During normal childhood, the angular trajectory of the vestibular aqueduct progressively narrows; an angle greater than 120 degrees after age 12 indicates adult-persistent hypoplasia and thus the hypoplastic endolymphatic sac endotype rather than normal maturation. A retrolabyrinthine bone thickness of at least 1.2 mm serves as a practical surrogate for a mature vestibular aqueduct orientation, reliably excluding the hypoplastic endotype and identifying ears that do not belong to this high-risk subgroup. In contrast, in the degenerative endotype of Menière disease, retrolabyrinthine bone thickness is more variable and does not follow this simple threshold pattern, so CT features must be interpreted in a broader clinical and imaging context. Read the AJNR articles mentioned in this episode:  "Postnatal Development of the Vestibular Aqueduct Trajectory on CT: Establishing Age-Specific Norms to Distinguish Normal from Arrested (Hypoplastic) Development" "Retrolabyrinthine Bone Thickness as a Radiologic Marker for the Hypoplastic Endotype in Menière Disease".

Patients are encouraged to choose practitioners who make them feel comfortable, listen attentively, and explain procedures thoroughly. Additionally, it is vital for practitioners to act as patient educators and advocates, ensuring that patients are aware of their options and understand what to expect from surgical and post-operative care. Importance of Surgical Notes Accessing detailed surgical notes is essential for creating a customized and effective post-operative care plan. Surgical notes provide insights into the procedural steps taken during surgery, highlighting areas that may require focused rehabilitation or specific therapeutic interventions.  Customized Post-Operative Care  - Utilizing FSM to address specific post-operative complications such as inflammation and adhesions. - Developing tailored protocols that may involve restoring joint function, reducing pain, and improving muscle or tissue healing. - Implementing FSM for emotional support, addressing emotional stress or trauma that can accompany physical injuries and surgeries. Managing Emotional Aspects in Healing  FSM is also used to manage emotional components intertwined with physical healing. Addressing emotions such as anger, fear, and grief using specific frequencies is integral to comprehensive care. Understanding the psychology behind these emotions and treating them in a methodical sequence can significantly improve patient responses and recovery. Proprioception and Vestibular Considerations  In patients who have undergone significant anatomical changes post-surgery, proprioceptive recalibration is crucial. Changes in gait or balance may necessitate proprioceptive exercises and FSM treatment for vestibular injuries to restore equilibrium and prevent dizziness or disorientation.

In this episode, Mike and Molly bridge the gap between the physics of waves and the biology of sensation. The MCAT loves the auditory system because it requires you to integrate knowledge from Physics (wave properties), Biology (structure of the ear and nervous system), and Psychology (signal detection).We take a "bird's ear view" of the auditory pathway, breaking it down into three critical stages:Mechanical Transmission: The outer and middle ear.Transduction: Converting movement into electricity in the inner ear.Neural Transmission: Sending the signal to the brain for interpretation.

Prodrome is one of those things I get asked about a lot. But not in the way that's quite so direct. Most people don't know that what they're asking me about is actually “prodrome.” The question usually comes in as something like, “I'm having [insert symptom]—why is that?” In this episode, we'll dig into: The 4 phases of a vestibular migraine What to know about the interictal phase Symptoms of prodrome you might be missing How to start tracking your prodrome phase How to treat the prodrome phase As mentioned, some people think they don't have a prodrome phase of their migraine when in reality… they're just missing it. Prodrome is pretty cool because you can get yourself out of the attack simply by recognizing your symptoms. (Yeah, pretty powerful!)

Ever feel like the PT world is just one big "small world"?

In this episode of Talk Dizzy To Me, vestibular physical therapists Dr. Abbie Ross, PT, NCS and Dr. Danielle Tolman sit down with Laura Ehlers to share a powerful, real-life story of chronic dizziness, plus the long road to obtaining answers in a healthcare system that often defaults to “it's BPPV” or “it's anxiety.”Laura walks us through how her symptoms evolved after being hit in the head and what her life looks like living with dizziness. She also shares the layered diagnoses that often show up together in complex dizziness cases—vestibular migraine, PPPD (Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness), dysautonomia/POTS (Postural Tachycardia Syndrome), and hypermobility/EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome), as well as the strategies that have helped her rebuild capacity.You'll hear practical, experience-based advice on:- How to advocate for yourself when you're not being believed- Why the right healthcare provider can be a game-changer- Medication realities: from sensitivities to finding what worksGuest: Laura Ehlers Instagram: @laurasnaturallifeHosted by:

“I woke up one day and my whole world was spinning—and it hasn't stopped since.” I'd love to introduce you to Juli, a Vestibular Group Fit member! She's here to tell you her story—including:How she waited over 3 years to be seen by a neurologist.What she got out of last year's Vestibular Virtual Summit.And how she flew to Vegas for a trip this year! I know it can be so supportive to hear other peoples' success stories of being able to successfully live—and thrive—with a vestibular disorder. These are some of my favorite conversations to have! In this episode, we'll dig into: Juli's backstory & her experience with chronic dizziness Her very recent vestibular disorder diagnosis How Juli knew something was wrong What type of treatment Juli has had since her diagnosis What Juli wants others to know about the VNG balance test What led Juli to Dr Madison & VGF The importance of identifying your triggers How VGF has positively impacted Juli's life What Juli does regularly to build a bigger bucket How Juli started to ask for help & build a support system “I'm not alone, there's a community in Vestibular Group Fit.” You're likely already doing some things right, just like Juli with her toolkit (before she knew they were a real thing). In VGF, you get to build on that!  In group, you discover new tools to add to that toolkit, better advice for your unique situation, and you're able to rebuild that self-trust that's been eroded by time and healthcare providers telling you “nothing is wrong” when clearly—there is.

Why do kids raised in the same home react so differently to the exact same situation? In this episode, I'm joined by Alyssa Campbell, author, educator, and founder of Seed & Sew, to unpack what's really happening beneath our kids' behaviors—and why understanding their nervous systems changes everything about how we parent.   Alyssa returns to the show to talk about her new book Big Kids, Bigger Feelings, and we go deep into the overlooked developmental stage of kids ages 5–12. We discuss why "shouldn't they know better?" is the wrong question, how regulation and access to skills are two different things, and why each child's unique sensory profile determines how they experience stress, connection, discipline, and learning. This conversation will give you clarity, compassion, and practical tools to parent each child for who they actually are—not who you expect them to be.     Timeline Summary  [0:00] Why kids raised by the same parents can behave so differently [2:33] Introducing Alyssa Campbell and her work in emotional intelligence [3:27] Alyssa's first book Tiny Humans, Big Emotions and its success [3:49] Celebrating Alyssa hitting the New York Times bestseller list [4:11] Introducing the new book Big Kids, Bigger Feelings [5:00] Why ages 5–12 are a massively overlooked developmental stage [6:03] Central nervous systems and why kids respond differently to the same stimulus [7:36] "Knowing better" vs. having access to skills in the moment [9:15] Dysregulation in adults—and why kids struggle even more [14:24] Why kids under 25 don't have fully developed prefrontal cortexes [16:03] How screens and overstimulation dysregulate kids [18:12] Why nervous system awareness builds empathy instead of frustration [22:45] The nine sensory systems every parent should understand [24:01] Vestibular, proprioceptive, and interoceptive senses explained [26:17] Sensory sensitivity vs. sensory seeking [28:12] Introducing the Seed Quiz as "GPS for your kid's brain" [29:05] How the Seed Quiz works for kids, parents, and families [31:10] Real-life school example of regulation transforming behavior [33:09] Why behavior improves when regulation improves [35:25] Trauma, environment, and how nervous systems evolve [41:03] Why understanding nervous systems transforms marriages too [42:06] Parenting two kids with opposite sensory needs [44:48] Why the same parenting response can calm one child and escalate another [45:30] Tapping out to your partner when regulation styles differ [47:01] Where to find Alyssa, her books, and Seed & Sew resources     Five Key Takeaways: Every child has a unique nervous system, which determines how they experience stress, connection, and learning.  Knowing what to do and being able to do it in the moment are not the same thing, especially when kids are dysregulated.  Behavior improves when regulation improves, not when punishment increases.  One-size-fits-all parenting often backfires because kids need different inputs to calm and connect.  Understanding nervous systems builds empathy, patience, and more effective parenting strategies.      Links & Resources Seed Quiz (Free Tool): https://seedquiz.com Seed & Sew Website: https://www.seedandsew.org Seed & Sew on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/seed.and.sew/ Seed & Sew on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/seedandsew.org Episode Show Notes & Resources: https://thedadedge.com/1427     Closing Remark If this episode helped you understand your kids—and yourself—on a deeper level, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

People are frequently asking about the difference between BPPV and vestibular migraine (VM), so we're getting into that on this episode! Aside from them both causing nystagmus (involuntary eye movement), these are not even a little bit the same thing. But vestibular migraine can cause nystagmus which can present identically to BPPV—and that can be really confusing for providers and patients alike! So… let's explore how you can determine what's what and what the appropriate treatment options are for each. In this episode, we'll dig into: The difference between BPPV and vestibular migraine The one similarity between BPPV and vestibular migraine The role the inner ear crystals play in BPPV What the Epley maneuver can be used to treat How vestibular migraine can cause positional vertigo How to treat BPPV vs vestibular migraine It's critical to land on the correct diagnosis in order to know which treatment path to choose. The best way to tell what you're dealing with is to work with a physical therapist because in science, we find that they're the best people to diagnose. And remember, it is possible to have more than one vestibular disorder and to not feel dizzy everyday. If you're in the holiday challenge and listening today, please send me a DM for extra credit.

What should you do if you're dealing with neck pain and vestibular migraine—or another vestibular disorder. Remember: vestibular migraine can be the cause of neck pain itself without anything being wrong with the neck. The first thing is to identify where the pain is coming from so you can take the proper actions to manage the pain, but there are 3 key areas you want to consider. In this episode, we'll dig into: Neck pain and the prodromal phase of migraine 3 things to consider when having neck pain and migraine Which muscles in the upper and middle back to be mindful of What's in the 6-week neck protocol in Vestibular Group Fit How to have the best posture for your neck It is completely normal to not actually want to move your neck because that typically makes you feel more dizzy. And… it's going to help you so much more in the long run if you welcome movement back into your neck. Start slowly, consider joining us in VGF, and know that you're doing a great job even by listening to a podcast episode like this!

This week's episode is a little different. We wanted to give you a full view inside a VestiBesties mentorship call where Christina Garrity, PT, DPT, NCS interviewed a neuro-otologist she works with in Ohio, Dr. Jimmy Prueter. Dr. Prueter was invited to the conversation to help clinicians better understand when, why and which tests people with vestibular conditions should be getting. The conversation-style interview is between Christina and Dr. Preuter, taken straight from a VestiBestie webinar so you can have exclusive access! In the discussion they outlined the challenges associated with diagnosing dizziness, noting that ENT residency programs don't always adequately prepare physicians for complex vestibular cases. Dr. Prueter stressed that while some tests—such as VNG with calorics or VEMP—can be helpful in specific scenarios, the decision to order them should be driven by whether the results would actually impact clinical management. Particularly for acute vestibular hypofunction, a strong clinical suspicion based on history and examination might mean that testing is less essential, and prompt referral to vestibular rehab can prevent unnecessary delays. They highlighted that clear documentation from therapists AND teaching physicians how to find what they need in it can provide valuable context for physicians. Plus, educating primary care doctors about early referral to vestibular therapy might streamline the diagnostic process.  Send us a DM on IG if you want to join VestiBesties! @neurocollaborative Follow Christina @vestibular_neuro_pt

FSM can be especially effective in treating concussive injuries and vestibular disorders that often go unnoticed. This requires practitioners to be vigilant about symptoms related to balance, cognitive function, and anxiety. Conducting a vestibular screen ensures a comprehensive diagnosis and informed treatment plan. ### Practical Applications and Case Studies Clinical applications of FSM extend beyond typical pain management. For example, spatial coordination and movement confidence can significantly impact rehabilitation outcomes. Using FSM to treat proprioceptive deficits aids in the activation and strengthening of muscles such as the serratus and latissimus dorsi to restore proper motor functions. This approach underscores the importance of treating the origin of muscular or neurological dysfunction rather than just the symptoms. ### Leveraging Case Histories in Rehabilitation Case studies offer valuable insights, underscoring the importance of integrating clinical experience with FSM protocols. Compiling detailed patient histories and clinical outcomes can guide effective case management, allowing practitioners to evolve their practices to better serve patients. For instance, addressing afflictions such as Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) or Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1) through tailored FSM protocols can yield a significant improvement in symptoms. Offering a custom care approach—like running shingles protocols for specific viruses—enhances treatment efficacy. ### Integrating Continuous Learning and Patient Engagement Encouraging active recovery and integrating FSM into patient care plans should involve continuous patient education and engagement. By explaining the treatment process and leveraging FSM technology, practitioners can foster patient buy-in and collaboration, vital components for successful health outcomes. Building a rapport and fostering a sense of safety can turn routine appointments into positive, transformative experiences for patients. ### Empowering Practitioners with FSM Tools The use of FSM goes beyond application to include training on recognizing patterns of symptoms that suggest deeper, unaddressed disorders. By learning to screen for and identify conditions like vestibular disorders, practitioners can direct patients toward appropriate resources and interventions—such as recommending 3D imaging or vestibular rehabilitation. ### Moving Forward with Confidence and Fun The journey toward excellence is rooted in a practitioner's ability to find joy and satisfaction in patient successes achieved through FSM. As practitioners explore these therapies with enthusiasm, they foster an environment of positivity that resonates with patients, enhancing experiences and encouraging recovery.

We're talking about supplements for migraine—there are a lot of different ones! And just because something works for someone else doesn't necessarily mean it will also work for you. Sometimes these supplements don't work for people at all. And other times they work really well—even better than some medications. As with all things migraine management, it's very person dependent.  In this episode, we'll dig into: Benefits of the most common supplements like magnesium What coenzymes do that can help with migraine management Why you need to consult with your doctor before adding in new supplements Side effects you may notice with supplements (like your pee turning neon orange) If you should get your levels checked before supplementing Which spices can be helpful for migraine Which supplements can be really supportive for the trigeminal nerve Labels to look for on supplements to help you find good ones Which supplements to try first vs leave for a little later To learn even more about supplements for vestibular migraine treatment, join us in Vestibular Group Fit (use code GROUNDED at checkout)!  Your membership includes 30% off all your supplements, which generally pays for the majority—if not the entire—cost of your VGF subscription.

Pain shouldn't always be seen as a sign of something terrible; rather, it's an indicator of what the body needs next. A common misconception is that the healing process is linear. However, practitioners must recognize that healing can be non-linear, especially when working with conditions like connective tissue disorders. When patients experience new symptoms, it suggests that the body's compensatory mechanisms are shifting, often revealing underlying issues that need attention. When working with patients, it's essential to communicate that changes in pain are a natural part of the healing process. Medical practitioners are encouraged to adopt a mindset of curiosity over concern, using new symptoms as clues for subsequent treatment steps. Emphasizing a holistic approach, practitioners should explore all potential sources of discomfort, including postural imbalances or previous injuries, and encourage patients not to panic but rather to view these changes as part of their healing journey. Effective Treatment Protocols FSM treatments are most effective when practitioners are adaptable and ready for shifts in patient conditions. Regularly revisiting and altering treatment plans is crucial. While some patients might experience immediate relief, others could face new challenges as the body adjusts. Practitioners should prepare for these scenarios, ensuring an ongoing dialogue with patients to address arising concerns and adjust treatment protocols accordingly. For some, the path to relief involves twice-weekly sessions for several weeks to address compensations and emergent conditions. The approach should be iterative; assess, treat, and reevaluate continually as new symptoms present themselves. Handling Specific Clinical Scenarios 1. **Vestibular and Neurological Concerns**: When using protocols such as "94 and 94" frequencies, some patients may report dizziness or discomfort due to vestibular system reactions. Thus, it's vital to perform a vestibular screen before initiating treatment. If any vestibular issues are detected, utilizing calming frequencies like "40 and 44" can stabilize the patient's condition. 2. **Epilepsy and Seizure Disorders**: There is some concern about treating epileptic patients with FSM. It's important to avoid direct current paths through the brain but focus on peripheral treatments such as the concussion protocol, which can aid in managing seizure disorders. Practitioners must weigh these treatment options carefully and seek clarification where needed—especially if misinformation has been disseminated through other channels. Advancements in Sleep Management Sleep issues are widespread; hence, understanding their underlying causes is crucial. Practitioners should probe beyond superficial sleep complaints to determine whether pain, anxiety, or lifestyle factors contribute to the problem. For instance, addressing pain with specific FSM protocols can significantly enhance sleep quality. Moreover, discussing sleep hygiene with patients is essential.

Summary In this podcast episode, neuroathletic performance and pain coach Jannik Schuster discusses neurocentric training, a method focusing on the brain and nervous system to enhance performance and alleviate pain. Schuster explains how he discovered this approach through personal experience with injuries and highlights its effectiveness in reducing inflammation and pain. He defines neurocentric training as targeting brain and nervous system interactions to improve performance, distinguishing it from traditional training methods that focus on biomechanical structures. Schuster emphasizes the significance of understanding the nervous system's role in pain and movement limitations, advocating for individualized approaches to address specific nervous system needs. He also discusses the integration of neurocentric training with traditional practices, the impact of visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive inputs, and the potential for neurocentric training to become more prevalent in both athletic and therapeutic settings. The conversation underscores the importance of neuroplasticity and suggests resources for those interested in exploring neurocentric training further. Guest Jannik Schuster — Neuroathletic Performance and Pain Coach, M.Sc. in Sports Science, educator, and former elite footballer. After training in the youth academy of FC Augsburg and the professional squad of FC Schweinfurt, Jannik discovered neurocentric training as a breakthrough method to unlock performance, prevent injury, and resolve pain.

Every single vestibular disorder has the exact same set of symptoms, so that makes it challenging to know what you're dealing with and what to do about it. Today we're talking specifically about the differences between vestibular migraine and Meniere's disease. Quick example: while Meniere's disease and vestibular migraine can both cause room spinning vertigo, how they look in practice is wildly different.  Tune in to learn how to spot the differences between the two, which disorder is more rare, and what treatment options are available for Meniere's disease and vestibular migraine. In this episode, we'll dig into: How Meniere's disease is different from vestibular migraine The diagnostic criteria for Meniere's disease and VM What causes Meniere's disease vs vestibular migraine Symptoms of Meniere's disease and VM Why Meniere's disease is so overdiagnosed If you can have Meniere's disease and vestibular migraine How to treat Meniere's disease vs vestibular migraine What supplements can help if you have Meniere's disease Whether you have Meniere's disease, vestibular migraine, or both, the truth is that they are incredibly disruptive to your life. And while both can be frustrating diagnoses to treat—they are both treatable. Having the right treatment plan and healthcare providers will make a big difference in your life.

There is a ring around everyone's head that controls so much of how a person functions in the world...starting with the eyes, then the ears/vestibular system, and then the back of the head or occiput, the seat of proprioception!

Feeling safe in movements and exercises (like pilates or yoga) can seem like a tall order when you have vestibular migraine or dizziness. But it's not hopeless! Many people think that group is just about strength training or doing super intense workouts that they could “never do,” but that's not the case. Inside Vestibular Group Fit, we offer lots of different classes! Pilates and yoga are two of them. In this episode, Dr. Madison interviews VGFit's in-house yoga and pilates instructor, Candy Price.  In Candy's previous episode on the podcast, the conversation was focused on yoga (definitely go listen to that one!). This time around, the conversation explored all things pilates and dizziness disorders.  In this episode, we'll dig into: The difference between reformer and mat pilates The biggest benefit of moving the solar plexus The best movement for dizziness and vestibular disorders The importance of postural alignment with vestibular disorders How Candy cues during classes to help you scale the exercise How to navigate the fear of working out and moving your body again What to do if you “can't” do spinal flexion A major reframe for when you're feeling anxious How frequently you need to do pilates for it to be effective Why you should never skip the cool down Confidence and trust in your body is something that people with dizziness disorders feel like they lose or have a hard time building back up. Exercising in a way that you enjoy is the #1 way that you can do that.  If you're struggling with your vestibular disorder—whether it's a newer diagnosis or you've been looking for solutions for years—VGFit is here for you. We've curated the best instructors, class styles, and so much more to get back to feeling good and secure in your body.

What's the secret to keeping your balance? The ear does more than hear: it helps us stay stable by perceiving movements and gravity. Elegant sensors deep within the skull detect every twist, turn, and tumble, powering swift reflexes that keep vision and balance steady. This is the vestibular system. It's primordial and ubiquitous: every animal has one, and even plants have a rudimentary version. It works so well that we take it for granted--until it fails. How does this remarkable system function? What happens when it goes haywire? How can modern medicine treat vestibular disease? The Great Balancing Act: An Insider's Guide to the Human Vestibular System (Columbia UP, 2025) tells the story of the vestibular system, from T. rex hearing organs to cochlear implants, and from the unsung power of hair cells to inner-ear problems in outer space. Combining neuroscience, history, and medicine, Jeffrey D. Sharon--a vestibular doctor and researcher--explains the sense of balance using accessible language and wry humor. He recounts how pioneering scientists solved the mysteries of the vestibular system and shows why it is necessary for spatial reasoning and abstract thought. Sharon explores the devastating consequences of vestibular problems such as vertigo, dizziness, and imbalance, offering an expert, patient-friendly look at emerging and future treatments. Engaging and entertaining, this book invites readers to discover a little-known yet vital part of ourselves. Learn more about your ad choices.

People ask me all the time, “Does Botox work for vestibular migraine?”  Another common question people ask is, “Is it going to get rid of my dizziness?” That question is missing the point. When you're treating vestibular migraine, you're not treating the dizziness. Does Botox work for VM? Yes, but not because you're treating the dizziness. In this episode, you'll hear me synthesize a study that dove into the impact of Botox on vestibular migraine—how it works, who it works for, and some important things to know if you'd like to explore this treatment for yourself. In this episode, we'll dig into: What is Botox for and not to be used for How Botox treats vestibular migraine Where the Botox injections happen for vestibular migraine If insurance covers Botox for vestibular migraine How many Botox treatments it takes to see any change Important note if you have EDS and VM and are interested in Botox If you think Botox is just freezing the muscles and therefore vestibular migraine goes away—no. As you heard in the episode, there are way deeper things going on.  Resources referenced in this episode are linked below, so you can review them on your own and share them with your doctor.

In this episode of The Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves breaks down the complex world of vestibular migraines—a diagnosis often given when dizziness can't be explained by ear, eye, or neurological tests. He explains why vestibular migraines are considered a “diagnosis of exclusion,” what symptoms patients may experience (from spinning vertigo to low-grade dizziness and nausea), and why medication-based approaches often fall short.Listeners will learn how dizziness connects to three key systems in the body:Vestibular system (inner ear) – regulating balance and movement.Visual system (eyes) – how vision therapy may play a role.Proprioceptive system (neck) – the often-overlooked source of chronic dizziness and migraines.Dr. Taves highlights why the neck is frequently the missing link in diagnosis and recovery, and how restoring movement, reducing tension, and retraining the body can help break the cycle of dizziness and headaches. He also shares Novera's treatment framework for vestibular migraine, designed to address root causes instead of just masking symptoms with medication.Whether you've just been diagnosed or are searching for answers after years of dizziness, this episode offers clarity, practical next steps, and hope for long-term relief.Novera: Headache Center

“I was making myself nauseous, not knowing it was something else. And that was insanely frustrating.” As a mom of two, dancer, choreographer, and overall fit and healthy person, Elizabeth was taken aback when she was told she had BPPV.

We'd love to be able to support you as you discover what you need to manage your vestibular disorder.

One day, seemingly out of nowhere, Louise began to feel unwell in her body. An inner uneasiness gave way to tremors and crushing fatigue, and her life devolved into living in her bed. For over eight years, bed bound, Louise struggled to figure out what was wrong with her, seeing countless doctors and specialists and being diagnosed with things like POTS, CFS/ME, fibromyalgia, and chronic vestibular migraine. It wasn't until she learned about the tenets of MindBody Medicine that she began to turn it around. Join us today for an incredible story of recovery. Louise's path has many twists and turns, and walking it with her will give you powerful insight into how to heal yourself. There is nothing more profound than the human story of suffering, surrender, discovery, and growth. I'm honored that my work was integral in, as Louise put it, bringing her home to herself. And, of course, eliminating her chronic pain and fatigue. Much love to all of you! XOOX n.
