    My BIL (a surgeon) tells me that Fibro is a symptom if inflammation somewhere else in your body. cure that inflammation and the Fibro goes away are his words

    That sounds great. Does he have any idea how to find it? My wife has had fibro for years. Any new information on how to help her would be great.

    Good afternoon everyone! Hope everyone’s having a great day.

    Also, everyone’s illness is different as well as to what “works” or not.

    For me, if I can get out of bed do the things of daily life like showering, cleaning putting away groceries etc and I don’t end up in bed for days with a pain flare then I’m all good for choosing whatever path works for me. It may not work for everyone else though.

    how my body reacts to an injury/inflammation can be quite the opposite in how someone else “feels” it.

    So I try not to use blanket statements about different paths to try to lead a normal life as a person with chronic illness and in chronic pain.

    I’ve been living with it for over a decade and I have tried almost all holistic approaches and medical ones as well in that time.

    For me I incorporate a blend of holistic/alternative medicine and western medicine to live an almost “normal life”.

    A normal functional life may mean different things to different people and it’s up to each individual as to what that means to them.

    I hope that any one who has a chronic illness and chronic pain gets all the help they need FOR THEIR LIVES TO BE NORMAL regardless of the path to that “normal” life.

    And back on topic- New Shinys have arrived and I’ll be posting them soon!!

    He just says find the inflammation and cure it and the fibro will be gone. With me it was a tooth but arthritis can do it too.

    Well got some vape mail.
    Finally got the sbs kit for my abyss and the eclipse rta.
    Figured out quickly that Mike made it for sbs mods but there is a reason he did not show it on the abyss.

    Ill build the eclipse on another mod later, for the time being i rebuilt the ether.

    A little disappointed but its not the end of the world.

    I think ‘fire your MD’ is the wrong answer. There is much a doctor is needed for. My opinion is there are a lot of things that meds don’t work for, but many they do. The trick is to know the difference. And find a doctor willing to work with that.
    I’ve had a terrible year with my fibromyalgia and finally called my doctor. He’s 91, no kidding.
    He asked a lot of questions about my lifestyle, activity, diet, etc and recommended a bunch of supplements and small changes I can make.
    No drugs. No tests. Because he knows they don’t really work for this. For other problems you need medical intervention. Some doctors always resort to that because that’s what they’re taught, that’s what patients demand.

    True..the heading should've been "Consult the right physician, for the illness you're having"...or something like that:p
    I agree 100% about the patients demands the medicine :thumbs:
    Medicines are definitely needed, but things got out of hand...mostly because of the greediness of Big Pharma...ironically similar to Big tobacco.
    Thing is we are the ones that should take responsibility for our health...not the doctor. I've been neglecting my body (through wrong foods and lifestyle) all my life and then expected the doctor to fix the problems that came as a consequence...and all through good ol ignorance.
    I don't blame the doctors that after some time give up on constantly educating people (about wrong lifestyle choices) and just throw a medicine the patients way...to treat the symptom.

    Thank you!!! Wish we would get them here. I've looked online but so far no luck.

    I did a knuckle test with the INW Marula and did get a pleasant sweet/sour/tart taste. So I have high hopes for this flavor.
    Ha Ha I see the seeds are available from Amazon...if you're interested. You'll have to plant many...and hope there's male and females. Only females bare the fruit.

    Just sitting reminiscing. When I stayed in a bushveld town I had a massive one in my back yard. I had a love bird in a cage and couldn't bare to leave it in there all day while I was at work. I stayed alone...as I was between wifes then :p
    I took the cage out every day, opened it and left it beneath the trunk. The bird climbed out and spent the day walking (it's wings were clipped) around the branches :D

    well the claymore is big flavor and big clouds/air if opened up wide. A 22mm rda can do that. Comes with two drip tips. One is lower profile than then the other.

    It’s SO SIMPLE to build it’s almost embarrassing lol!! It’s perfect for any small single battery mod which seem to be very popular here.

    I just received more vape mail and a Geekvape snuck it’s way around border control because now I have the S100 in fuzzy grey. I ONLY bought it because I thought it was cute - whatever :pervy: ! They cost next to nothing because I bought three. Unknowingly !!

    They probably have the best drop in coils as far as flavor goes. At least out of what I’ve tried. There’s also a rebuildable mesh tank on preorder for the Marvos.
    Here’s the mesh rta I was thinking about for the Marvos mods.

    Thanks mate. I saw that. You almost exited me big time when you mentioned a rebuildable...thought it was a RBA.

    Instead of wasting time searching the internet as to who still sells 100 mg nicotine can someone just tell me. I have 7 liters not sure I need more. Probably not but I’d like to see what it’s going for. Thanks.

    @Uncle has a list

    No, not an rba but it will work with any of the Marvos mods which I have from reviews.
