pulsetto vagal nerve stimulator
Would like to feedback as to if you've used this for a client and how did they do? It seems like adding more emf's is not truly a good idea but then there's also some value to supporting the vagal nerve

A while back I purchased a Sensate device for vagal nerve stimulation. I have seen this one rated high along with the Pulsetto. I have not used it very much but, always plan to. I'd really like to get my husband or son to use it. I find it similar to Brain Tap in that you listen to pre-recorded pieces that then work in tandem with the device.
PEMT and gastric emptying?
Emily, you mentioned today (or I thought you did), PEMT can lead to delayed gastric emptying. Can you explain that mechanism please?

Hey Terrie, Emily said that snps on PEMT can lead to delayed gastric emptying. This makes sense because PEMT makes PC which at some point is converted to acetylcholine which is a component of the vagus nerve - so less PC means less acetylcholine, means lower vagus nerve function and thus delayed gastric emptying.

Neuro-Lyme Testing
I have a young VA patient whose doc suspects Lyme, I do too. Doc tested him 7 times, all negative! Main symptoms now are migrating muscle twitches and spasms. Initially had major brain fog, wight loss, severe fatigue and Epstein Barr reactivation. Been given an ALS diagnosis to move along treatment options at VA and EVERYTHING else they tested for MS, IBS, Cancers, tumors etc all came back negative. I'm going to try and get the doc to order IGenX testing - Tick Borne Disease Panel 4IB. Any suggestions on using a different panel or additional tests?

If cost is an issue with running the IGenex panel, you could look at the AcuDart (by IGenex) as a screening for Lyme, Bart, Babesia, and TBRF. Much less expensive than the 4IB panel.
vegan omegas?
If someone is allergic to fish and they are low on omega quant, what product do you reach for?

Barlean's has a good Flax seed oil, or Flax & Algae Oil Blend (as long as they are not allergic to algae too). I'm also seeing that Nordic Naturals has an Algae Omega product too, but if algae is also a problem I think you would be able to find something from Barlean's. I have used this line with a couple of clients that were reacting to the histamines from fish oil supplements.
