Re: [copinglist] chiropractor for MM? Salt in the pool?
Hi Roberta,
My name is Mary Ann. I have been part of this group for a few
years, although I do not post very often. I am writing to answer
your question re: chiropractic care. As any oldtimer with this
group knows, I have had MM since 2005. From 2005-2006(when I was
hospitalized for it) ENTs and medical doctors could not help me.All
they wanted to offer me was increasingly invasive surgeries once it
became apparent the pills were not working. The pills they
prescribed(meclezine and diuretics) only made me worse. After
getting out of the hospital in March of 2006, I went back to my
chiro/kinesiologist. I went on and remain on a very STRICT
diet(no salt, no sugar and ONLY complex carbohydrates, no alcohol
etc.) I also exercise, get monthly chiro adjustments and am on
a # of supplements. Since 2006 I have had a few bouts
of what I term wooziness and only 1 severe bout of complete
vertigo/puking (I first had a very bad cold and after the cold ended
the MM began) that lasted for 1 month in 2007. While my treatment
with the chiro has NOT cured my MM, it has at least, I believe, made MM
OK to live with and has for the most part allowed me to get back to
part of the life I had before the MM began.
I hope this has helped answer your question.

Continue the exercise.
I don'think enough salt can be absorbed in the pool water or ocean
water to make that difference unless you swallow a lot of it. I am not
too sure about chiropractors. They did help my low back but did not
help my neck and dizziness at all. I stopped going.

salt as the primary chemical. Salt is, after all sodium chloride. It is
a very pleasant pool with no chlorine smell or burning of eyes. I am
wondering if salt can be absorbed into the skin. I have been going to
that pool for 10 years. I have only been having MM symptoms the last 6
months.I truly enjoy the exercise program.
