This is why I don't take drugs. Any of them.

Also, JS80, you've just successfully proven that I am going STRAIGHT to fucking hell if there is one.

Yeah I kind of cried and laughed at the same time. I actually thought it was a video with better sound quality that got me going.
 
wow that is so sad, especially at the end when she says "running is all I have left."

Goes to show how crazy the body is...her condition on the one hand seems like it would be easy to "fix" since it appears to be a cognitive/pysch condition rather than a physical ailment.

I want to see how she starts jogging. It seemed very difficult for her to even just stop or start walking. Maybe she starts backwards and spins around?

Also I think it's something in her detergent causing this. She needs to quit wearing clothes. :evil:

she has 2 friends by her side that help "launch" her to get her going.

Yeah, we really are practically clueless on how the brain really works. I can't speak for this case, but there are so many ailments where nothing is physically wrong with the person and yet something happened in the brain to cause it.

Placebo's have already shown how powerful the brain is.
 
My wife worked as a care attendant for a woman with dystonia during her undergrad. There are two types:

1. Born with it
2. Get it from infection

If you're born with it, they can do this brain implant thing which is something like 90-95% effective in controlling the symptoms. If you get it from infection, then the implant is maybe 50% effective.

If I use a melon baller to scoop out the part of your brain that makes you breath, and you die, was your death the result of a "cognitive/pysch" condition? Dude, f'n brain damage does not equal "cognitive/pysch" condition.
 
Googling "Dystonia," I found this site:

http://www.dystonia-foundation.org/

where I found this page:

http://www.dystonia-foundation...___flu_vaccine/569.php

"Dystonia & Flu Vaccine in the Media

Recently there has been coverage in the news media about a woman developing dystonia after receiving a seasonal flu vaccine. The DMRF is not aware of any information or research showing that the seasonal flu vaccine causes dystonia. As with any medical procedure or treatment option, the DMRF encourages you to discuss the risks and benefits of the getting the seasonal flu vaccine with your doctor."
 
I sent an email to several people about this with ALL the facts because there is at least one on that list that like to forward chain emails....and I can see this developing into a dumbass chain email easily.
 
It's all in her head, they are even using it as a hot topic at some schools to demonstrate psychologically inflicted problems.
