Hi Hank, I am originally from Australia. I returned later to Australia and finished school at Preston College of TAFE(tertiary and further education). Throughout the years I learned not to say much because people had no clue about Australia. They could not even tell me the location of the country. I remember one adult telling me it was near Greenland. I gave up. I still have connections there. In fact my daughter recently went to visit family and see where I had lived. Family comes here(Florida) to visit us as well. It is nice to see our kids stay connected although we are miles apart. Thanks to technology it has made it possible.
I started researching neuroplasticity earlier in the year to help me with my diplopia. I began my own daily eye exercises. After a few weeks I noticed an improvement. The problem is that the vision of the bad eye shifts to try to align with the other eye. I have to deal with the worsening motion sickness for now but I am hoping my eyes stabilized at some point. I plan to continue with the eye exercises for a year before visiting my neuro ophthalmologist for the strabismus surgery. I am researching the risks of the surgery and the reviews of my surgeon and so far it looks good. Maybe in a year the technology will become even better.
I began the ALC 1200mg about 2 weeks ago. I take it with food in the mornings with no problem. I haven’t tried the ALA 30 minutes prior on an empty stomach. Hmmmm, maybe the ALC will help more with the ALA if I take it 30 minutes after. Good, something else to learn by trial and error. I remember studying mitochondria in high school and college. I never learned the details, never had to. It is amazing how medical knowledge has changed in the last 20 years.....somethings that were taught to patients are no longer true. That is why I believe to research and be your own advocate. Trial and error works for me. Neuroplasticity is fascinating. I wish you and Barry the best. Good luck with the reading of your new book. I am glad to hear you are no longer interested in the product containing seals......good on ya!

I don't know why any adult person who has had a normal education would not know where Australia is. That's strange. Do they know about that new finding where the world is supposedly round? I hear it's becoming accepted fact! I LOVE Australians, they are so my people. So friendly and down to earth, the type I feel most comfortable with. To me they're a fair dinkum!

Yes, no seal pills. Not for me.

Good to see you post. I have missed seeing you around lately. The thing I like best about you (if you don't mind me getting personal for a second) is how thoughtful and insightful you are about health, how carefully you investigate stuff, which I find an appealing trait.

Best for now my Aussie friend, talk soon, Hank
