Did you know that #purrtherapy is legitimate medicinal vibration therapy?

Ragnar is an amazing Purr Therapist!

He knows his work is super important & takes great pride in his healing powers.

Cats purrs vary between 25-140 hz.

Vibrations btwn 10-50 hz help increase the speed of healing of bones, muscles & tendons as well as decreasing inflammation throughout the body.

Vibrations of 18-35 hz helps increase joint mobility & decrease swelling of joints.
Vibrations of 50-100 helps reduce acute & chronic pain throughout the body.

100 hz on chest of those w respiratory conditions can help ease symptoms, especially SOB & asthmatic issues.

These same frequencies also lower bp & help regulate cardiac irregularities.
Research has also shown vibrational therapy in this range to be highly effective to lower stress, anxiety & depressive states.

My purr therapist administering treatments is a sweetheart, he definitely helps with all of these things! Image
I'm grateful I have a team of 3 wonderful Purr Therapists who work in shifts & allow me to lay on them while their purrs echo through my head.

So soothing.

My dream would be to be able to do this with a giant cat like a lion.
How amazing their purrs must sound!
I want it.
I'm not usually one to push "alternative" treatments but this is definitely one I stand behind.

Do any of you also prescribe to this treatment program?

I'd love to hear about your experiences & of course see your purr therapists.

This week, I went for 2nd neuro psyche eval at stroke clinic to dx extent of cognitive decline due to strokes & brain damage post Covid.

Drs notes just added to my chart -

"Major neurocognitive disorder with severe impairments."

Dementia.

I'm shook.

I'm 45 years old & have just been dx with dementia.

Idk what I was hoping for, maybe that they would tell me things weren't as bad as I thought.

I guess I had actually hoped for a little dismissal for a change.
2/9
I won't meet with the doc for another month to discuss these results & hear her recommendations.

Why TF do they schedule follow up appointments to go over results like this so far away from testing?

This some bullshit.

#LongCovidBrainDamage
Had a cognitive/memory assessment done today w one of my neuro.

They are trying to access the extent of the damage from the strokes & subsequent brain damage & progression.

My memory loss is getting much worse. I forget everything.

Everything.
I have damage in frontal lobe, basal ganglia, progressive #encephalomalacia in right parietal lobe, volume loss, lesions throughout brain & brain stem, 4 inoperable 🧠 #aneurysms, mass around pineal gland & #chiari.

My brain's ravaged from #strokes & Covid.

I spent yesterday & last night in the ER. I've been sick for 2 weeks with - RAT & PCR.
Though my Covid test was negative, they said I may have one of the new strains not showing up on tests. 6 diff docs who treated me last night said they'd seen lots of this happening recently.
Haven't left my home in weeks.
My partner was most likely asymptomatic & gave it to me after attending an outdoor event.
He masked & quarantined in another part of the house. It wasn't enough.
After virtual consult, was advised to hang up & dial 911 to be rushed to ER. My partner took me but was unable to stay with me.
I struggled navigating my manual WC due to L sided weakness. Even as a stroke patient w worsened ongoing symptoms, I had to wait 3 hrs for triage.

Sharing isn't easy.
Cognitive decline coupled w emotional impact of so much hate & denial we face takes a toll.
We keep shouting into the void hoping our voices will help others understand how absolutely necessary it is to protect yourself & others.

Many of us have multisystem degeneration & damage & have been disabled by Covid.
We've had to fight for our lives everyday while being dismissed by friends, family, & drs.
Our advocacy is based in our survival & much of hc now is based in what we've learned along the way.

Day 823 of my #longcovid battle
a thread.
This will mostly be rambling, screaming out into the void as I've felt even more disconnected as my health continues to deteriorate.
Took cpl hrs to get this out & is all over the place but that's ok too.

"mild" case of covid February 2020 led to LC rearing it's ugly head by June 2020. In 1styear, I went from being healthy & active to suffering 100+ symptoms.
Each dr visit & scan found further degeneration & damage. I was met w dismissal & gaslighting from med community.
2/21
I found great solace & help in the LC communities on social media. It gave me strength to keep advocating for healthcare & finding ways to self manage symptoms until I could find a dr to listen.
I firmly believe I wouldn't have survived w out y'all.
