Great to see you are booming with subscribers. It would be nice if Drs. Would watch and read the comments.

Hi Johnny! Thanks again for another great video. I was wondering if you find meditation helpful. I've been getting back to medication lately and find it very helpful in grounding me throughout these uncertain times. Jon Kabat-Zin's book Full Catastrophe Living has been a great resource. It is geared towards informing people with health issues of the benefits of meditation and mindfulness. He is also doing a series with Wisdom 2.0 on KZbin during the pandemic. It has been very enlightening and inspirational to watch. All the best, and take good care of yourself! 😉

Meditation, chanting Om really work along with living in the Now and knowing everything will pass; certainly stops me worrying 😊

Missed your live, ty though Johnny as always. Since hearing about LDN on your channel and looking into it I got quite excited about it, but it's hard to get prescribed it over here. Il keep trying though. Love from London 🇬🇧
@hummeldumm60724 жыл бұрын
Same here in Germany! But it is worth looking for someone who is willing to prescribe it. I looked into LDN when John mentioned it and am taking it for half a year now. It works! I am using 2mg per day still. Sometimes I have to skip two or three days so all the receptors can get rid of it and it really works well. Of course I am far from being well but it improves my quality of life and I am thankful that Johnny takes on the effort to make all the videos to help other people. Good luck for you!

Lightheaded, breathless, palpations can obviously be anxiety however it could be Orthostatic Intolerance if it's only happening when standing. There's a NASA TILT TEST that can be done at home. I've stent 3 years trying to work out why I feel so well lying down (not including symptoms on symptomatic days)

With diet do you do a more ketogenic or just lean meats veggies and fruits?

Btw - does the LDN have any side effects that you experienced? What dose do you take now? I am considering trying it but need to discuss it with my doc. He isn't familiar with that other than it's used for getting rid of addictions in higher doses. Thanks

Fight4 ME I didn’t know they would let people have disability for ME yet because so many doctors don’t believe in it. I have it and some days are really rough. I’ve found I have other issues along with it like heart palpitations etc.

Hi Johnny, have you ever tried: corticosteroids, immunoglobulines, antivirals, IV saline, vagal nerve stimulation? If you did, what results did you have? Thanks, from a new severe me sufferer in Italy, country where this devastating condition has no support whatsoever
@fight4me7474 жыл бұрын
I have tried IV, it helps a bit but very expensive in the States. I have tried Antivirals and they helped a little. Sorry to hear you are having a difficult time.

@@fight4me747 thanks for the reply, can I just ask what type of IV you tried? I meant IV saline specifically (it should help mainly for POTS though, but I've heard it helps with me/cfs in general)...it shouldn't be too expensive, just checking we're talking about the same thing
