It seems over the last year the social media posts, YouTube ads and videos have really increased discussing solutions for brain fog. the vagus nerve, neck instability and other symptoms we tend to have. It all sounds good and people desperate for help will try anything. With all of these people cashing in on our symptoms with different stretching techniques, devices or programs it seems like there’s a lot more noise to get through to find real answers. I still find this board and to a much lesser extent FB/Reddit groups to be the best source for help. I’m thankful that our issues are finally getting some attention but the negative side is all of the people out to make $ off our pain.
Very astute observation! Thank you for articulately voicing what I bet many of our members have observed. I agree that there are way too many people/organizations looking to profit from people who are desperate to feel well again.
My husband has commented numerous times when searching for solutions/answers to questions (unrelated to health) on the internet that the answers by experienced people no longer pop up, but pat, AI type answers are what appear. It’s driving him bonkers because he’s a fix-it-yourself guy & getting real advice is now difficult to find.
I’m glad you find the forum helpful, it would be nice to be able to give members more answers, unfortunately it seems what works for some don’t work for all, and like you say, it can cost so much money to give things a try!
Thinking of you & hope that you can find some answers!
