Hi all
I actually went to see a doctor for the 1st time in yrs at wkend.. He proded shoulder neck for 20 seconds, put a crab like hand on head and twisted it beyond where it hurt and refused to xray or scan.. I said I knew had muscle pain!!! [got worse since waveform] That I was there to see if I could find out why? I had muscle pain, for yrs pain free ond any wee muscle pain goes with Arnica rub, this had actually got worse. His responce!!! "thats because you've not taken pain killers" that could go in circles for a long time.
He gave me some medication with side effects to share the shit out of any sane person.. an anti inflamatory and a muscle relaxant and a bucket of pain killers!!! So i got myself litozin [anti inflammatory] and Magnesium [muscle relaxant] I asked the people at fresh and wild.. theyve helped a lot and hope to brace myself for another go at getting an mti scan..
It infuriates me, no way knows whats going on in neck from a prod.. and hand out medication like smarties. Also why is the Pharmaceutical industry dominating the NHS.. I've cost v. little as I look after myself yet would be sooo great if everyone had a choice at healthier ways to heal themselves can get v.expensive to buy nutriceauticals and not in everyones financial bracket..

Hi all
So it's winter!!! that was quick, pulled my back a bit at waveform amd useing Arnica muscle rub from Welada one the best ranges of natural medicine and skincare I know of and they go back b4 got trendy and still kept prices resonable.
Does anyone else get the feeling that as 'health' and 'green' becomes popular just an excuss to make it costly and therefore only available to certain income brackets, this is sad..

Hi all,
I know what makes a blog work.. pictures!!! TV culture demands instant stimulation.. maybe. Part the reason no pics is not worked out how to put them on yet and partly due to fact have no TV and no camera. I am a great yoga teacher though, steeped in the stuff I read, my personal practice and all the lessons from great teachers like Clive Sheriden and Sarah Powers. I am between the last 2 festivals of the yr, this is the 1st time I can say I'm glad it's over! despite the fact some great highs the weather has really made the going tough. Well done to all the Bestival crowd who were great in wind rain and mud.
