Love is most nearly itself
When here and now cease to matter.
Old men ought to be explorers
Here or there does not matter
We must be still and still moving
Into another intensity
For a further union, a deeper communion
Through the dark cold and the empty desolation,
The wave cry, the wind cry, the vast waters
Of the petrel and the porpoise. In my end is my beginning.

Intense like majestic waves

Reflexions on Intensity

intensity

the quality of being intense as the intensity of the heat.

in·tense

1. Possessing or displaying a distinctive feature to an extreme degree: the intense sun of the tropics.

2. Extreme in degree, strength, or size: intense heat.

3. Involving or showing strain or extreme effort: intense concentration.

4.

a. Deeply felt; profound: intense emotion.

b. Tending to feel deeply: an intense writer.

---

[Middle English, from Old French, from Latin intnsus, stretched, intent, from past participle of intendere, to stretch, intend; see intend.]

The word ‘intensity’, meaning a ‘deeply felt strengthening of effort’ has the same Latin root, intensus, as the word ‘intention’, signifying ‘being set upon (or concentrating on) some end or purpose’

Usage Note: The meanings of intense and intensive overlap considerably, but they are often subtly distinct. When used to describe human feeling or activity, intense often suggests a strength or concentration that arises from inner dispositions and is particularly appropriate for describing emotional states: intense pleasure, intense dislike, intense loyalty, and so forth. Intensive is more frequently applied when the strength or concentration of an activity is imposed from without: intensive bombing, intensive training, intensive marketing. Thus a reference to Mark's intense study of German suggests that Mark himself was responsible for the concentrated activity, whereas Mark's intensive study of German suggests that the program in which Mark was studying was designed to cover a great deal of material in a brief period.

Another Definition: The amount or degree of energy with which a force operates or a cause acts; effectiveness, as estimated by results produced.

In physics, intensity is a measure of the time-averaged energy flux. The word "intensity" here is not synonymous with "strength", "amplitude", or "level", as it sometimes is in colloquial speech. For example, "the intensity of pressure" is meaningless, since the parameters of those variables do not match.To find the intensity, take the energy density (that is, the energy per unit volume) and multiply it by the velocity at which the energy is moving. The resulting vector has the units of power divided by area (i.e. watt/m²). It is possible to define the intensity of the water coming from a garden sprinkler, but intensity is used most frequently with waves (i.e. sound or light)

It is important to notice how intensity is most frequently used with light which is energy and how the effectiveness is estimated by the results produced. Intensity has to do with time averaged energy and movement velocity.

Being intense should not lead to darkness and confusion but on the contrary, intensive living surrounds us with clarity, strength and effectiveness in all that we aim to achieve as result. It leaves our mark on this world like majestic waves do on rocks.

Ocean surface waves usually result from wind. Some waves can travel thousands of miles before reaching land. There could be little actual motion forward, despite the large amount of energy they may carry forward.

What is the wind that propels you? Does it seemed like there's little actual motion forward? To me sometimes it seems like there's even an action backwards, but I know I'm leaving an imprint of the love and peace I love so much in this world, even if only to those around me, but that can move as water waves and sound waves to reach more and more of those longing for peace in their hearts and lives. Each one of us can start even with a small ripple of water.

The Intensity of Emotion
Jack W. Brehm

A theory is outlined that assumes that emotions are motivational states with the special
function ofproducing adaptation to situational conditions. The theory assumes that
the emotional system lies in the central nervous system, that it isfast to react, able to
change quickly from one emotional state to another, produces only one emotion at a
time, and that the intensity ofthat emotion is a nonmonotonicfunction ofdeterrence to
the aim of the emotion. Relevant to the present theory, is that emotions have motivational character, or, in other words, they urge one to behave in a particular way. Various theorists have made the same argument in one way or another (e.g., Arnold,1969; Duffy, 1941; Frijda, 1986; Leeper, 1948), and some have argued for a more differentiated view that assumes there are behavioral implications concerning coping with or controlling the events that gave rise tothe emotion, coping with the emotion itself, or both(e.g., Lazarus, 1991).

“Your profession is not what brings home your paycheck. Your profession is what you were put on earth to do. With such passion and such intensity that it becomes spiritual in calling.” Virgil

...the spirit reveals itself to everyone with the same intensity and consistency, but only warriors are consistently attuned to such revelations.

Frozen in a photograph
They travel further

I don't mention this in an egotistic manner, I mention it as a testimony. There was a time long ago, before my marriage, when there was anger and hatred in my heart, but I made a choice to quest for everything good and noble, all that of good nature and I was content with that change.

Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

I really got to a point where I feared the terrible times of anxiety and neurosis that my family had to deal with when I had thyroid storms or after the postictal stages of petit mal seizures. I remember my desperation once, asking a doctor to help me when he said it was just menopause and I said no it's not, don't give me your opinion without bases, do your job and have the proper lab test done. I need a THS count.

I thank God for my daughter Nathalia who drove me so many times to the hospital and witnessed many times of thyroid crisis.

The trials of the sickness that came over me, almost made me lose all the beauty I had planted in my garden allowing roots of bitterness to start growing in it again.

I thank God I haven't lost any of those longed for attributes that represent many challenges, prayers,self control, decisions of forgiveness, yielding one's selfishness and fear to a higher power.

"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love,
and of a sound mind."
2 Timothy 1:7 (King James Version)

thyroid crisis (thī´roid),

n a sudden exacerbation of symptoms of thyrotoxicosis characterized by fever, sweating, tachycardia, extreme nervous excitability, and pulmonary edema. If untreated, the crisis often is fatal. Also called thyroid storm.

The dictionary does not mention it includes crying, screaming, gasping for air, vomit.

I guess I had to forgive myself for losing control, and my family for not undertanding something I couldn't even understand myself to concentrate on the enemy that was trying to destroy the essence of whom I have become to be by exposure to the ebb and flow of life.

September is Thyroid Awareness Month

I don't post much about Graves Disease though I should since my Mom had it and I've had symptoms of hyperthyroidism because of Hashimoto's disease.

Gail Devers almost had to abandon her athletic career due to her
thyroid problem. The disease caused her to lose excessive weight and muscle. But she didn't give up and kept on running

Hurdler Gail Devers is No. 1 at 40
By Dick Patrick, USA TODAY
NEW YORK — Danielle Carruthers first met Gail Devers 13 years ago when Carruthers was 13-year-old aspiring hurdler attending a track clinic where one of the speakers was Devers, a sprinter-hurdler who had already won Olympic and World Championships gold medals.
"I was really intrigued by her," says Carruthers. "The thing I remember is she had huge calf muscles. I was telling her a month ago, it's really weird to think 13 years later she'd be my coach … and she's still running. And she's still fast."
Devers, 40, continued one of the most remarkable careers in track history Friday night, winning the 60-meter hurdles at the 100th Millrose Games. The title was the fourth of her career, coming 15 years after her first Millrose victory and at a time when there were rumors she was retired.
Devers finished in 7.86 seconds, which not only demolished the masters (40-and-over) world record by nearly a second but is the fastest time in the world this year. She finished ahead of runner-up Joanna Hayes (7.91), the 2004 Olympic 100 hurdles champion, and third-place Carruthers (7.94), her pupil and two-time defending indoor national titlist.

Another Example of Courage and strenth over thyroid disease is Carl Lewis who became thefastest man on earth,Carl Lewis (10 Olympic Gold Medals Track & Field) ironically he had hypothyroid issues that slows you down.

Graves' Disease

In his Clinical Practice article on Graves' disease, Brent (June 12 issue) comments on the combined use of antithyroid drugs and radioiodine and refers to the results of our trial, showing no effects of antithyroid drugs on radioiodine therapy after a 3-day-withdrawal. However, in a subsequent meta-analysis, we found that antithyroid drugs significantly reduced the success of radioiodine therapy, even when the drugs were discontinued for a week. This conclusion contradicted those of most of the included trials (including our own), which were most likely underpowered to detect significant differences. We now discontinue antithyroid drugs for more than a week before radioiodine therapy, if clinically feasible. Adequately powered trials are needed to better inform this issue.

When I was diagnosed with a Pituitary Tumor, I was never tested for cancer, until my private Neurosurgeon mentioned that possibility a year later, He said we can't just assume most Pituitary Adenomas are not cancerous. It could be something else. It is necessary to see all the possible angles and save precious time that could allow victory against this dreadful disease.

A national shame, our children are dying

I read this article, (see link at bottom) It made me realize that I need to speak up and say something. As a parent of a brain tumor survivor. I saw treatments that were available to adults, but were not available to my son because he was a child. These treatments were not available to children because they have not been tested on children and there weren't even any trials even being done. I know what it is like to decide to treat my child for his brain tumor with treatments that I knew would reduce his IQ by more than 10%, destroy his Thyroid, damage his pituitary gland, cause possible deafness, and blindness and leave him permanently bald. I chose that treatment because it was the only one available.

The number one killer of children is cancer. Cancer claims the lives of more kids than the next 5 on the list combined.

Half of the children diagnosed with brain tumors will die within 5 years. Overall one in five children diagnosed with cancer will die within 5 years. The 5 year survival rates for breast cancer is 88%. So why was breast cancer funding in 2006 $ 584 million, while childhood cancer received $ 26 million.

For some, the battle with cancer ends quickly because there are no good treatments. There has only been 1 new chemotherapy medication approved for children's cancer over the past 20 years. Mostly because there are so few clinical trials for pediatric cancer. The funding for pediatric cancer clinical trials has gone down every year since 2003.

We need better treatments for our children with cancer.

HELLEN KELLER

We’ve all had that anxious feeling along with a rapid heartbeat and sweaty palms. But what if it turned into a full blown panic attack and you were essentially rendered incapacitated. In this memoir about her life as a victim of an anxiety disorder, Samantha Schutz paints a vivid picture of her challenges transitioning from high school to college. We follow the author’s eventual understanding of why she feels so different. This process is communicated through poetry. This poem taken from the book’s Prologue gives you a view into the word Samantha must endure.

“I can’t believeno one else can hear

I am screaming inside my head.
Things are moving so fast.I am going to die.

I am going to die.I am going to die.

My hands are shaking.

I try to squeeze them, try to make it stop,

but now my fists are shaking,

and this shaking is working its way through me.

It must look like I am having a fit.

I want to let the scream out,but I think if I start,

I’ll never stop.
It’s not supposed to be like this.I am too young to die.

I don’t know how to make this end,and if it doesn’t,

I’ll have to go to a hospital,

be medicated, force-fed soft foods.

I don’t want to be that person

I am not that person.I am not.I am not.”

Ultimately, Samantha finds the courage to deal with her disorder and discovers that she can in fact cope and gain her independence.

It was only about a year ago that I settled on saying, "I am in recovery from anxiety disorder." I was diagnosed with panic disorder a few months into my freshman year of college. My first attacks were scattered and seemingly without pattern. But it wasn't long before the attacks picked up speed and I was having several a day. I often felt nervous, not in control of my body, convinced that I was going to die. As the frequency of attacks increased, it became difficult to do normal things such as go to class, the dining hall or parties. It was textbook panic disorder. Only I didn't know that. I thought I had gone crazy and that all the things I hoped for in my life -- that my parents hoped for -- were gone.
I am thankful that I possess two qualities: being forthcoming about my feelings and being proactive about my health. I believe these are a big part of the reason that I was able to ask for help. And getting help was surprisingly easy. One fall afternoon, I went to my college's counseling center and asked for an appointment. Within days, I was seeing a therapist and a psychiatrist and was on medication.That was more than 10 years ago. Since then, I have seen more than half a dozen therapists and taken as many medications. I have gone months without panic attacks and medication. I have also "relapsed" and nearly checked myself into a hospital. I have been to yoga and meditation classes, swung tennis rackets at pillows, practiced the art of breathing, tried hypnosis and herbal remedies. And slowly, I've begun to do things that once seemed impossible -- going to crowded concerts or sitting with relative ease in a packed lecture hall. People want to know why I'm better. They want to know the formula. This is not a simple question with a simple answer. For sure, hormonal changes, growing older, moving out of my parents' house and becoming more confident and secure with myself have all aided my recovery. The only thing I can say with certainty is that my commitment to therapy and my willingness to try new medications have made the most difference.

As Samantha says I have also taken and tried the medications I have been given by trusted doctors. I struggled to decide taking valproate for epilepsy .......... I didn't want to because of the side effects. But inmediately after having a "black out" driving. I came home and tood my first two pills, a total of 6 during the day. During one terrible week I had to endure halucinations and agressiveness, the neurologist says that's why I needed that high dose and my family doctor said it was an overdose and lowered it. Thank God for that! I'm now going to a private neurosurgeon who is controling me in this ordeal of symptons and different ailments. I feel quite myself again, but there was a time I became a stranger within myself.

I'm fighting against epilepsy, hashimoto's disease and advancing forward

Valproate

· Blocks Na and Ca currents (T-type), increase GABA transmission (increase release, reduce up-take and catabolism)
· Half-life: 9-18 hours
· Therapeutic range: 600-1200 mg/die
· Multiple daily doses
· Myoclonic seizures, Absence seizures, Primary generalized tonic-clonic
· Side effects: severe hepatic-toxicity, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, sedation, tremor, weight gain, hair loss.

I didn't want to damage my liver, or sleep more than I already did or gain more weight than I already have or have another reason to lose more hair!

Tough decisions............... I have chosen life ......... always.

I can only imagine

My sister just sent me one of my favorite songs, the one that lifted me up with the power of God during those hard times facing all kinds of horrible possibilities a brain tumor can bring. Death was a possibilty yet I could not be afraid.

Music does have an influence in our hearts and souls.

In "The Mozart Effect for Children," author Don Campbell shows that music is the perfect tool to improve children's language, movement, and emotional skills at home, school, and play.
The results of the research using Mozart's music have been especially stunning and have given rise to the term the Mozart Effect. This term refers to the ability of Mozart's music to heighten spatial awareness and intelligence; its power to improve concentration and speech abilities; and the startling increase in SAT scores among students who sing or play an instrument. But the Mozart Effect refers to more than just raising children's test scores. Music has been used as therapy for seizures, to lower blood pressure, treat ADD children, mental illness, depression, aid in healing, treat stress and insomnia and premature infants. Musicologist Julius Portnoy found that music can change metabolic rates, increase or decrease blood pressure, effect energy levels, and digestion, positively or negatively, depending on the type of music. Calming music, such as classical music was found to have a very calming effect on the body, and cause the increase of endorphins , thirty minutes of such music was equal to the effect of a dose of valium.

The influence of music on society can be clearly seen from modern history. Music helped Thomas Jefferson write the Declaration of Independence. When he could not figure out the right wording for a certain part, he would play his violin to help him. The music helped him get the words from his brain onto the paper.

Albert Einstein is recognized as one of the smartest men who has ever lived. A little known fact about Einstein is that when he was young he did extremely poor in school. His grade school teachers told his parents to take him out of school because he was "too stupid to learn" and it would be a waste of resources for the school to invest time and energy in his education. The school suggested that his parents get Albert an easy, manual labor job as soon as they could. His mother did not think that Albert was "stupid". Instead of following the school's advice, Albert's parents bought him a violin. Albert became good at the violin. Music was the key that helped Albert Einstein become one of the smartest men who has ever lived. Einstein himself says that the reason he was so smart is because he played the violin. He loved the music of Mozart and Bach the most. A friend of Einstein, G.J. Withrow, said that the way Einstein figured out his problems and equations was by improvising on the violin.

Oscar Pistorius "Blade Runner" broke world record and won third gold medal in Beijing
by patgarcia September 16, 2008 at 08:50 pm

He was not allowed to go to the Olympics even though he had the speed instead he had to participate in the Paralympic Games, where he went beyond his own linits beating his own mark. A man without boundaries to hold him from triumph.

Double-amputee Oscar Pistorius broke his world record and took a third gold
medal as he won the 400 meters at the Paralympic Games in Beijing today.
The
21-year-old South African, nicknamed ``Blade Runner'' because of his
carbon-fiber prosthetic legs, finished in 47.49 seconds, taking almost half a
second off the previous mark. He set a personal best time of 46.25 seconds
racing against able- bodied athletes in July, though that didn't qualify as a
record.
Jim Bob Bizzell of the U.S. was second today in 50.98 seconds --
setting a world record in the single-amputee category -- and Britain's Ian Jones
took the bronze medal in 51.69.
``I was lucky, very lucky to run the time I
did, I was hoping for a world record and this is a dream come true,'' Pistorius
told reporters. ``This has been by far one of the most memorable competitions of
my life. The crowd has been so passionate. It's been an amazing competition.''

2 Kings 5
Naaman Healed of Leprosy

1 Now Naaman was commander of the army of the king of Aram. He was a great man in the sight of his master and highly regarded, because through him the LORD had given victory to Aram. He was a valiant soldier, but he had leprosy.

9 So Naaman went with his horses and chariots and stopped at the door of Elisha's house. Elisha sent a messenger to say to him, "Go, wash yourself seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will be restored and you will be cleansed."

14 So he went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, as the man of God had told him, and his flesh was restored and became clean like that of a young boy.

Masaru Emoto, a Japanese researcher who has spent years studying the effects of spoken words on frozen water crystals. The work is not without its critics and controversy. But even if you "read" Emoto's work as a metaphor, and gaze at his lovely frozen water crystals as no more than simply illustrations of an idea, rather than an expression of so-called "scientific reality," they are something to see.
His contention is that if spoken words or human thoughts are directed at water before it freezes, then the crystals that result will display characteristic patterns. These patterns will be ugly if the words/thoughts are negative, and beautiful if the words/thoughts are positive and life-affirming. He claims to have experimented using prayer, and written words attached to water-filled containers. He has published many volumes under the name, Messages From Water. Each volume displays the crystals and the emotions/thoughts that produced them.
Crazy?
Maybe. But maybe not.

Mozart water cristal

Water…The Earth is largely made up of it. As are we…And yet about it we know significantly little. Until the groundbreaking work of a pioneer Japanese researcher whose astonishing discovery about water, documented photographically, changed most of what we didn't know…and led to a new consciousness of Earth's most precious resource.
What has put Dr. Emoto at the forefront of the study of water is his proof that thoughts and feelings affect physical reality. By producing different focused intentions through written and spoken words and music and literally presenting it to the same water samples, the water appears to "change its expression".
Essentially, Dr. Emoto captured water's 'expressions.' He developed a technique using a very powerful microscope in a very cold room along with high-speed photography, to photograph newly formed crystals of frozen water samples. Not all water samples crystallize however. Water samples from extremely polluted rivers directly seem to express the 'state' the water is in.
Dr. Masaru Emoto discovered that crystals formed in frozen water reveal changes when specific, concentrated thoughts are directed toward them. He found that water from clear springs and water that has been exposed to loving words shows brilliant, complex, and colorful snowflake patterns. In contrast, polluted water, or water exposed to negative thoughts, forms incomplete, asymmetrical patterns with dull colors.The implications of this research create a new awareness of how we can positively impact the earth and our personal health.

love and gratitude crystal

When asked if there was a special combination of words or phrases that he found most beneficial in transforming the waters of the world, Emoto responded:"Yes. There is a special combination that seems to be perfect for this, which is love plus the combination of thanks and appreciation reflected in the English word gratitude. Just one of these is not enough. Love needs to be based in gratitude, and gratitude needs to be based in love. These two words together create the most important vibration. And it is even more important that we understand the value of these words. For example, we know that water is described as H2O. If we were to look at love and gratitude as a pair, gratitude is the H and love is the O. Water is the basis that not only supports but also allows the existence of life. In my understanding of the concept of yin and yang, in the same way that there is one O and two Hs, we also need one part yang/love to two parts yin/gratitude, in order to come to a place of balance in the equation.""Love is an active word and gratitude is passive. When you think of gratitude -- a combination of appreciation and thankfulness -- there is an apologetic quality. The Japanese word for gratitude is kan-sha, consisting of two Chinese characters: kan, which means feeling, and sha, apology. It's coming from a reverential space, taking a step or two back. I believe that love coming from this space is optimal love, and may even lead to an end to the wars and conflicts in the world. Kan-sha is inherent in the substance H2O -- an essential element for life."

The consciousness of each of us creates our world, which means
we can change the world. When the Earth is filled with the vibration of Love and
Gratitude, then you will experience a world filled with Love and Gratitude. --
Masaru Emoto

You make me sick water cristal

Mr Emoto's description of the basis of this Hado effect. For those of us whose eyes are opened this “energy of human consciousness" is in reality Our Father making Himself manifest in ‘matter’ or in His Creation. Yes, this occurs through man's sounds and thoughts because He is Sovereign in man.
For the Spirit man the findings of Mr. Masaru Emoto substantiate the period of
Tabernacles within Him and outside of Him. This visualizes for Spirit man the power of Spirit communication and He knows that He can commune with anyone or anything on this earth, not with water or matter, but with the Spirit that forms water and matter.
He seeks and restores Truth and He knows no distances. He will bind up the
brokenhearted, proclaims liberty to the captives, and opens the prison to them that are bound, and… He Himself is the answer, the ONLY answer of fulfilled prayer.

Cancer and other illnesses challenge us to explore all levels of healing resources;like Naaman we have to find our path to healing, and pursue it, the mind, heart, body and spirit. All these aspects of ourselves strongly effect each other, they each have their own wisdom and inner healing systems. Insights and research can help you make decisions and actively, engage in your own healing journey.
Dr. Simonton pioneered in the treatment of cancer patients. It evolved from the concept that beliefs, feelings, attitudes and lifestyle are important factors affecting health.

Dr. Simonton developed a model of emotional support for the treatment of cancer patients... an approach that introduced the concept that one's state of mind could influence their ability to survive cancer.

Meyer Friedman, MD -- a medical pioneer whose many accomplishments include developing the theory that the "Type A" behavior of chronically angry and impatient people raises their risk of heart attacks.

Researchers from Ohio State University say cortisol, a hormone related to stress, seems to interfere with the healing process. The study, led by Jean-Phillipe Gouin, appears in Brain, Behavior and Immunity.There is evidence that stress in general can make people more susceptible to illness and slower to get better. Studies have found that people caring for a loved one with dementia heal more slowly from small wounds, as do dental students about to take an exam.

For this report, the researchers focused specifically on anger, screening study participants to find how out they deal with it.

They tried to identify which ones tended to keep angry feelings to themselves and which ones let others know if they were displeased. They also looked for those who flew off the handle.

For the study, about 100 volunteers agreed to let researchers make a small blister on a forearm, then cover it with plastic and see how quickly it healed.

To their surprise, the researchers found that those who expressed anger, if in a controlled fashion, and those who did not healed about as quickly.

This was not the case with hotheads. They were about four times as likely as other participants to take more than four days to heal.

See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many. Hebrews 12:15

The relation between bitterness and disease is apparent from the fact that the name of the physical limb, which according to the sages is the seat of all disease, means "bitter." It is the gall-bladder--in Hebrew marah, from mar, "bitter"--of which is said that all of the eighty-three illnesses (the numerical value of the word for "disease" in Hebrew [machalah], as will be explained) that afflict mankind are dependent on the ga-bladder.

At work trying to stay awake............................ I don't know why this happens, but I do know I have generalized epilepsy "postictal type" as my Social Security Neurologist diagnosed but he really has not looked into my case closely, he has only seen me twice in a year. The private doctor I'm seeing is treating me according to my symptoms and began seeing me every fifteen days, then every month and as I have improved greatly, he wont see me in two months now.

After the convulsion subsides, the patient is exhausted and may sleep heavily. Fatigue and depression are often experienced upon awakening, and occasionally the patient has no memory of the seizure. Attacks occur at varying intervals, in some cases as seldom as once a year and in others as frequently as several times a day. Seizures may occur successively with no intervening period of consciousness; this condition, known as status epilepticus, affects approximately 8 per cent of those subject to grand-mal attacks and may be fatal unless treated promptly with diazepam or other drugs.

In petit-mal epilepsy the seizures are characterized by a sudden, momentary loss or impairment of consciousness. Overt symptoms are often as slight as an upward staring of the eyes, a staggering gait, or a twitching of the facial muscles. The patient often resumes activity without realizing that the seizure has occurred.

In psychomotor epilepsy the main symptom is amnesia. Duration of the seizures varies from a few minutes to several hours. Activity of the patient does not cease during the seizure, although behaviour is totally unrelated to environment. Also called temporal-lobe epilepsy, this form of seizure can be preceded by an aura (abdominal discomfort, dizziness, or strange odours and sensations). Some severe forms of temporal-lobe epilepsy are successfully treated by surgical removal of the damaged part of the brain.

I've just come out of another sleeping episode...... two days.

I slept all saturday afternoon until sunday evening one or two hours to eat and do some easy stuff........ then went back to sleep till monday. My doctors have not really looked into this situation, it seemed more important to control other syntoms.

Recurrent hypersomnia is characterized by episodes of excessive sleep lasting from a few days to several weeks.
Patients may sleep for at least 18 h a day, and rise only to eat and void. The episodes are typically separated by weeks or months, during which normal sleep patterns are
resumed.
