Karen, how do I get rid of the constant headache that I've had for about 13 weeks now. I have just been diagnosed with Basil Stem migraines and TIA. I'm about crazy from the discomfort.

Hi, Karyn!

I was very taken, when I came to your Web-pages. You told interesting things of yourself. I can see of your writing that your iq is very high, because you do not make silly generalisations. I think so that people in average iq do too many generalisations, but you seem to questionise almost every thing in the world.

Karyn, I do also the same, perhaps I am too much critical and it seems to make living more difficult, but things is that I like of complexities and to live my life as a thinking intellectual mind power in the planet of misery.
Let's live our lifes like the Romans once said: "veni", "vidi", "vici". I mean that there is no reason to be unhappy, if you are a high intellected person, because I have had a lots of problems in my former life to cope with people, who are not so gifted as a human beings, but they are not miserable beings and you either.

Therefore, there are many reasons to be happy. First of all, you have a lot of intellectual potential in your use. You can do what you want to with that extra capacity. On the one hand, problem might be in your relationships to the other human beings, not necessarily individuals from the outer space. Then you can easily feel that you symbolically come from Mars and the others from Tellus. So, social relationships between you and others does not necessarily match well enough. This leads to situation that you feel loneliness, because you are too intellected in the eyes of other people and the intellectual capacity levels are far too away, because you can not talk the same mental language with people, who are much more lower in iq than you are.

Secondly, you can orientate to very intellectual areas, because you have that giftness, you learn fast, your the structure of brain connections is a tremendous powerplant to produce new inventions and surveys that open people's eyes to see more widely this earthly life and world.

Thirdly, you are highly intellected, because people need your different thinking and an extraordinary mental giftness, but it does not necessarily mean that you are really perfect balance in your emotional life and structures.

This message is for everyone gifted and highly intellect humanbeings, who read these words, maybe you feel now better your value for society in total and also your human value as yourself.

Arrivederci!

Me here again!

There are many people who complain of their life and how miserable and stressful it is. of course, for someone it is hard and diffucult, but life is for living happily and not in sadeness.

There are also people who seek cure to their headaches or migrenes. I think so that one simple solution is to decrease the stress level by doing relaxation exercises or I have founded that classical music, especially adagio rhytm vanish away a headache and migrene symthoms.

Maybe, one way is to begin to write down, what bother in your life. It can be a divorce, the loss of parent or close one. Write down personal feelings in to the diary. It is helpful, because you can deal with your problems on paper, not all the time in your head. This release your mental capacity and your stress level goes down.

I hardly trust to miracle drugs, because they can help you just a one moment. The most important is to keep care of mental health by having outdoor activities and fresh air instead of staying most of the time inside. This is psychologically proved in the tests. Your bad living environment causes quite often extra stress and concern.

Arrivederci!

What an utterly lovely web-site ! And everything is so smart !! Well, I'll have to confess something here: I'm afraid I won't understand most of it, because I'm suffering from excessive stupidity and progressive Debility Syndrome (ESPDS). Having seen your site I'm already feeling so much better. Would it be possible to get a photo of you ? I could very well imagine that looking at it might help me even more !
Oh, what a wonderful feeling. Thanks to what your site has done for me I'm getting an idea why people always call me idiot.

Thank you so much, dear Camilla !

I have a friend that takes medication for migrane headache pain. Imatrex is one of those. She now has problems with masses growing around her organs causing great pain and now they are around her aorta. She is in very bad shape. I was wondering if anyone else has had any non-cancerous medical problems as a result of pain and migrane medication. Please Respond!

SesquIQ will be online by the end of February (hopefully). 150+ IQ and/or 270+ SQ (sensory quotient). 99th percentile is good enough for IQ (Ilian card, etc.). SQ scores are graded from a specialized test (by mail or in person). SesquIQ is aimed at the physics side of conceptual perception, the putting of thoughts into action, that nothing is worth knowing if it can't be shared through the sense of touch.
If you want to include SesquIQ in your listing, more information will be available when the web sight comes up (sesquiq.com).
Thanks,

Hi, my name is Lucia and I have a 12 years old daughter who suffers from migraines. She gets them quite often, and I am getting worried about this. The doctor (her pediatrician) says that she should take Motrin and that's kind of all. It really doesn't help her too much.
Is it common for kids at such a young age to have migraines? What can I do to help?
Thank you.

Hi, Karyn. Just browsing on the Internet and saw that you have a site. Fun to see other Huntting nerds around -- just showed Tim. We are all fine here & would love to see the baby. Hope that you can come to James' Eagle Court of Honor in June. We'll have to talk migraines then. I have them and so does Lucia (started the month she turned 10). Love to all of you. Elaine

She has had 2 siezures many blackouts her vision is funny (flashing lights in corner of eyes 7 fadding to black) weakness personality chang .I don't know what to do. I'm new to this online thing but learning fast (esp. from my mistakes). Perhaps you or a reg. could send me some advice or where to go to get some. I'm at charlesleff@freewwweb.com.

Dear Kayrn,
Hi, I'm writing because I am very concern about my daughter. She is now 14yrs. old and has been having migranes since she has been about 7yrs. old. Lately they are getting worse and lasting for 6 to 7days. I was researching the internet and came across ( BAM ). These best describe her migranes symptoms. She had a C.T.scan done 2 years ago and it was OK. Now she is extremely dizzy mainly in the mornings and can hardly walk. She gets tingling in her fingers at times and a pressure at the back of her head.Movement is her worst enemy. If she stays lying down in a dark room it is a big help. She has tried excedrin migraine, it used to help some with the headache, but it is the dizziness that is a hugh problem now. This situation is now interferring with daily life. Can you please give us any advice. Thank-you

Dear Karyn,
I am Charlie Leff, I wrote up above. I told you I was new to this computer(on line thing). Well After I wrote the note above I crashed my computer and lost my E-mail sight, it is now: charlesleff@uswest.net
I Said I would learn from my mistakes! My wife is still having the same migraine and she seems to be getting worse. We switched Neurologists and the new one is doing more tests but, they can't seem to stop the pain and she is getting so she chokes when she eats now. She still has the black-outs the lights in the corner of her eyes the horrible migraine hasn't stopped for months.(Since last Aug. 28 when she had her first siezure.) Although she hasn't had any siezures lately, she still gets very weak and sometimes she has to sit down becouse she can't see. She has black-outs and many other symtoms. She has been on so many different medications I can't count them all. There has to be something that will help her. When they give her the hydrocodine it just makes her groggy but it does't healp with the migrain. We think she is sensitive to Caffien as she breakes out when she takes it and her symptoms seem to get worse. I get no answers from the Dr's. They say they know what it probly isn't???Anyway I didn't get any of the E-mails (if ant) from anyone so if there is someone who has similar symptoms Ect. Please lets talk. My E-mail above or charlesleff@netscape.net..
Thank you ,, Charles Leff

Hi, all,

My name is Markus and I study now in England, at university. I come from Finland. I have noticed here in this guestbook a few Finns. So, the containts of the guestbook seems to indicate that it can be also a little bit international.

I have not experienced any bad episodes of migraines, but instead of it a lot of anxieties and depression. This all seems to refer into the high level of sensitivity. Maybe, the migraines are the cause of that deep and vulnerable
sensitivity that very intelligent persons seem to have in their lives.

On one hand migraines can due on hereditary factors like DNA-genes that define what we are. Some of us are more sensitive than others. Some expose on more easily to have diseases like ear-infection as a child or a tendency to have migraines and in its worsest form memory block-outs.

Best regards,

Markus,
a man from Europe

Had weekly severe migraines for 7 years in 1960's during grad school. Usually on Fridays lasted 24 to 36 hours, usually no 'zig-zag auras'. Tried sansert, cafergot, dilantin, percodan, etc. Finally, creative student health service doctor Halliday asked "Can you make a migraine happen at will?" Sounded stupid, but worth a try. Twenty or 30 minutes later he reclaimed his office and I had an excruciating migraine going behind my usual (left) eye. Once I was convinced there existed a 'window' through which I could deliver such unbearable punishment to myself I began to find new ways to hide from the pain, to bear it better when it 'found' me, to delay it, and to mitigate it. Finally and slowly it stopped. That was 30 or 40 years ago with no migraine-like pain since (or before). Recently the vivid, zig-zag neon-and-lightning auras reappeared - without any pain. They last about 15-20 spectacular minutes, and are in both eyes. My internist calls them 'painless migraines' and I pull off the road and enjoy the fireworks display until it's over, all the while thanking the Lord that there's no pain. At first I was very skeptical of the 'painless migraine' diagnosis but have met two others with the same syndrome.

Dear Karyn:

I have been waiting and waiting to see any updates you might have on the BAM page.

I am extremely interested in finding out about Head Trauma (as a result of a blow to the head in a car accident) and BAM. If you could possibly direct me to any research on the subject I would greatly appreciate it.

I've noticed that this (trauma) is one of the categories you have been waiting to update. I am in need of finding out more about BAM and car accidents or whiplash or bangs on the head, as soon as possible.

Please, please, please...can you update me on this one topic or direct me as to who might be the leading authority on the subject? I would like to be in contact with them as soon as possible.

I await your reply.

Sincerely,

Joanne

Karyn,

My mind is now full of thoughts. I am an ocean philosoph, a water prince, a comma in water sentence, and eagle in the sky flying to freedom. I am moving between triangles, retangles and circles and I travel with words and numbers, when I arrive back home.

Then, I received information that shocked me entirely. Now, I am exploring these new areas what I have found. I am identified as a gifted, and this message from several people and authorities has stopped me to think life from new perspectives.

I have now a good mentor and counsellor, and she helps me on the way to become a better human being on the earth.

Good wishes to all!!!

I have experienced headache strokes for irritating and boring people. I do not suffer of migraine anymore, if I do relaxation exercises. Head is clear and clean and ready for new challenges.

However, the disease of foolishness waits in bushes and different living environments. I have suffered of headache two weeks.

Take care!

I HAVE SUFFERED FROM SEVERE MIGRANES SINCE I WAS FIFTEEN YEARS OLD. I HAVE BEEN ON SEVERAL MEDICATIONS INCLUDING THOSE THAT SLOW DOWN YOUR HEART AND BLOOD FLOW. THE SYMPTOMS THAT I HAVE, I'VE BEEN TOLD ARE LIKE THOSE OF SOMEONE WHO HAS A STROKE. I GET WARNINGS BEFORE MY HEAD STARTS POUNDING SERVERELY (AND USUALLY LAST FOR 2 DAYS AT LEAST). FIRST, I GET VERY BLURRED VISION, THEN I BEGIN GOING NUMB ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF WHERE THE PAIN WILL BE. THEN, MY SPEECH BECOMES VERY SLURRED. I CAN'T EVEN PUT A SENTENCE TOGETHER. AFTER ALL THE SYMPTOMS, HERE COMES THE PAIN. THE MEDICATION I AM CURRENTLY ON MAKES ME FEEL AWFUL AND AT TIMES VERY SICK. CAN ANYONE TELL ME IN ENGLISH WHAT CAUSES THESE OR IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE THAT HAS THESE SAME SYMPTOMS. THEY ARE VERY SCARY TO ME AND I HAVEN'T HEARD OF ANYONE THAT HAS THE SAME ONES I DO.

By Tracy Edwards on Friday, January 12, 2001 - 09:58 pm: Edit

Dear Anonymous (afraid to sign your name?),

I don't think that those of us here who have found the work Karyn has done to help so many people something that warrants those kind of remarks. Also I don't recall ever seeing anywhere where she claims to have the IQ you allude to and criticize. Do you? I don't see any claims mentioned anywhere.

I don't think too that your comments about her looks are anything but indications of your immaturity, shallowness, and probably jealousy as well. Just like your comments about her IQ (which you probably have no idea about anyway). It shouldn't even matter (what's it to you anyway?) but as far as most people would be concerned, Karyn is very attractive. You know, if you are surfing the Internet just to find someone whose looks satisfy your "standards" (whatever they are, God only knows) then you are looking in the wrong place.

Karyn's web sites have something of substance. I think maybe you ought to be looking at the other type of sites if this is how you feel. Us "regulars" don't need people like you around making snide comments.

To each his own as I always say, but I just wanted to put in my 2 cents and say that there are alot of people out there who would "take her side" any day. Count me in as one of those.

Not afraid to sign _my_ name,

To "Anonymous -- 1/12/01 8:10pm"... Please stay away from websites which gnaw at your phobia/complex of those who are intellectually your superior, to the point where you must make unprovoked and juvenile remarks. You, with your wholly un-funny and callous antics, waste the valuable time of all those who must sift through garbage like your 1/12/01 comment in this guestbook -- proof positive that YOUR I.Q. is probably hovering around the 'profound retard' level (i.e., PROFOUND RETARD.---v .13e-8 | 00 -07 IQ SD-23.7 - Cattell (Verbal) ). Did you understand that last part? I didn't think so...

"Girl", please go back to doing what you do best: consuming massively (food and television, that is -- not knowledge), growing physically (as opposed to intellectually), sleep-walking/sleep-talking, and humiliating yourself. "Girl" you are an idiot, no offense -- just an 'idiot' in an objective, clinical respect...

To the reformed coffee drinker: How much did you drink a day? I've heard of people getting severe headaches from quitting caffeinated cola drinks, it's like a withdrawl. Personally, I try to limit myself to one or two cups of instant coffee a day (the brewed stuff just sends me spinning). Good luck to you, I think it's good you're giving up the java though, it's not the best thing nature has to offer.

My daughter is 17 and has had severe migraines since age 8. Her CT scan shows clear. A while ago I heard noises coming from her room at night, so I went to check on her (leaving the light off). When I touched the bed it was shaking violently. I reached to try to wake her but couldn't. I fumbled to turn the lights on and tried to shake her awake again. She was very white and her eyes looked glazed when she "came out of it". Can you explain? Did she have a seizure? Do siezures and migraines sometimes go together?

Hello there,
I am not sure If I have migrain headaches or something else. I have been given several names for it, but nothing solid. I lose vision in my right eye, the right part of my boby goes numb, and I am not able to read, right, or talk. After this has all worn off I get a pounding headache that is tuff to get rid of. And this only tends to happen when I am pregnant. I am with my second child and 10 weeks along. What should I do since doctors can't give me the answer?

And the string would be better suited to new input if it were reversed from its present chronological order.
