    If anyone is interested. Namenda is now being used for daily migraine-type headaches for people whose lives have been altered due to horrible nauseating headaches. After 5 years and 5 neurologists later, my son is finially getting his life back due to Namenda. He takes 15 mg twice a day at the same time every day, which is important.

    For any sort of cure, go to Hawaii. I got rid of aches in my arm and head, got rid of tinnitus. :D :D

    5 months ago woke up with flu like symptoms, very dizzy. Chronic dizziness developed and anxiety symptoms developed a couple weeks after that. My Doctor said it is my Central Nervous system. He put me on anti anxiety and is sending me to a Neurologist to put me on anti-depressant. Can stress alter the Central Nervous system, and can these type of medications put it back on track?

    i am agree with Dr. Martin on how important about the nervous system that he have been discussing in this artical, but some time i still get confuse on why people get stroke when they are young? Is that because they been smoking alot? and why stroke happen more on man compare to woman?

    I agree with every thing about nervous system that doctor Martin have been discussing . That is the most complex and surprising system of our body and nature . Up to now , we still have been understanding it uncompletely .We only can use just 1/10 energy of our brains while somtime madmen can use all of energy of their brains ,so then we can not control them because they are very strong . In addition , what have we been understanding about the surprising sixthly sense of human ? We only understanded what things buid Alzheimer or multiple clerosis disease to prevent it , but we can not understand why one people can wake up after a slumber extending 20 -30 years , is it right ? So our brains are the most wonderful gift that the God gave us , so thanks a lot...
