Terry,
good that you see impovements.
As for bad mood experice, this is quite interesting,
while not expected. How many times a day to you
make the set of exercises? When does the bad mood
appear - immediately after the exercise, or it perists?

Unfortunately there is no other mailing lists or boards where we could
grab onto other peoples experiences, only the formal clinical
tests results. We are creating such a
list just as we type :-) I will try to find some russian
resources on this however. Shetinin reported that patients
are stimulated by exercise, e.g. feel extra active, it removes
drowsiness.

I can relay to what I and my daughter experienced. Exercise
always acts on me and her similar to strong tea. It wakes
me up (we do it mostly in the evening) and makes me feel
like it is morning. Feeling stays for about half and hour
and then I become sleepy again, as I should be.
Could it be that extra stimulation makes you irritable as
such - what effect does tea or coffe for example have to you?
Maybe changing the enviroment where you do exercise would help
- like doing it on the fresh air and with pleasent view (like
in the backyard or balkony) would channel the released
energy in more positive direction.

As for cough, sorry to hear that. I am sure exercise
can not completely eliminate infections, while I believe it
decreases their probability and severity. I am quite sensitive to
colds, but since 4 month I am doing exercise I got soar throat once
and it was very light, only took 1 day with fever to clear up. I
continued doing the exercises, and did it twice a day when I was sick.
Typicaly for me it takes a week to recover from cold, so this
one was clearly very light. My daugher still did not get sick even
once during 4 month, and this is remarkable considering that she had
persistent sinus infection and cough when we started, and is going to
kindergarden which is a great breading ground for infections.

Regards,
Evgenij
