Hank and Linda, good to hear from you. I am grateful the tea is working better for me. I am so sorry it didn’t help Linda. I know how miserable a bad headache can feel. I also sipped on it on a couple different days to fool my brain into thinking it will only get the tea every time I had a headache. I don’t know if this made any difference. This morning as soon as I got up the headache began. As it slowly intensified, I got my ice tea and within 30 minutes it was gone.
Hey, I am glad I tried the supplements to find out if they were for me, otherwise I would still be wondering.
No worries about the eye exercises. For me they acted as neuroplasticity. It was working for a while but the shifting of one eye image made the motion sickness worse. There are many different forms of exercises. It all depends on the goal. Through exercises, a person can retrain theIr brain to accomplish a task using a different pathway of nerves from what they are used to. As Barry had said, he completed the very same tasks using his left hand instead of his right or vice versa. He is teaching his brain different routes to perform the same tasks. In other words, we can get to the same point by traveling in different directions. I am thankful I am not paralyzed. No nerves were cut during the surgical repair of my ruptured cerebral AVM. I am hoping to diminish the motion sickness so I can focus on activities that will improve my balance. As it is now, I push myself to do things around the house no matter how I I feel as long as I don’t fall. I even volunteer my time helping high school students (online for now) with their school work. Wish you both well. Toni

What kind of tea are your using? I could not find a mention of a type of tea in any of the posts above. My husband has bad migraines and he takes a medicine that is a combination of caffeine, aspirin, and a narcotic - I forget the name. He has tried just caffeine tablets and they don't work for him so I am wondering if you are referring to a plain old caffienated tea or something special.
