Autism body temperature

Jamesmatheson said:
its the same as jogging around the block
when you jog around the block your body heats up
and when it cools down your body stores more oxygen
and when you do it everyday your body stores more
oxygen and you learn better
a needle to change body temperature heats and cools
the body to store more oxygen

Why not recommend jogging or brisk walking
followed by ice packs + cold drinks, then?

Instead of this needle thing.
 
Are you sure it's body temp?

Couldn't it be height? Isn't the air thinner and less oxygen the higher you go?

There is a reason hospitals use pressurized oxygen treatments to help accelerate wound care. It is the inverse of higher altitude oxygen levels.

But oxygen absorption is unique to the individual and is rooted in the bone marrow and the production of hemoglobin and ferritin.

External cycling procedures like dialysis, apheresis, and ECMO are extrapolated from our bodies own system functions.

And while the external versions can keep one healthy or aid in healing, the process is an ordeal.

Do you work in the medical field?
 
Since smoking crack and meth got brought up, I'm gonna be honest: I've smoked K2 before.

Spice/ K2, Synthetic Marijuana

One of the dumbest decisions of my life. Cured nothing and made me extremely paranoid and agitated. Got rid of that garbage after one joint, if you could even call it a joint. My rolling skills are terrible.

Marijuana was a more genuine, natural high that I've found, but the last blunt I smoked I got a bad trip, so I've sworn off the stuff for the time being. Not that I ever smoked much weed to begin with, plus in Texas only low-THC medicinal use is approved right now. And, no, I'm not buying anything from my friendly neighborhood plug either. :)

Haven't done any of the others - mushrooms, meth or crack - and (save for marijuana) would not recommend anyone try out anything mentioned in this post either.

No. My mom is an surgical RN (retired). My sister is a veterinarian. And I deal with a complex, chronic illness. I also like knowing how things work, so I ask, read, and listen.

I've done apheresis for more than a decade because of my HFHC. It is not fun. But when you are around things long enough you just absorb the information.

Conducting an experiment on stilts doesn't sound much easier, but it does look like more fun.

;)
 
I concur. With Chicken Pox I survived a 109 F fever. All I could remember is hallucinating wildly and being packed in ice. I had some deficits in proprioception and balance from the high temperature, but managed to overcome that in time.

How about oxygen bars? Does that relate at all to what people are talking about? :eek:

NO. As a professional and expert in respiratory physiology, we need to stop this conversation. The OP is misinformed and needs to study some basic physiology. Let it go.
 
A Few years ago my wife at a party my wife was offered a home made edible, she got very sick took hours to recover. incidentally she is also allergic to alcohol, seems to have built a bit of a tolerance over the years no more drugs for her learned her lesson barfing, soiling yourself while in a social setting not fun. She found out the hard way quality control matters, so does engineering, (mixing).

As a child I was on a stimulant medication very briefly to try to manage my ADHD. Horrendously bad reaction to it because of my EDS, it was like someome walked in and took my soul away. (My words, age 4), freaked my mom and grandparents out enough that they advocated and said no, this is not right. Anything that can affect my cognitive function has never been ingested since. No drugs, no alcohol. I'd rather deal with pain than have my brain disconnected.
