HYPERMOBILE YES! These are exact postures chosen by hypermobile patients with unilateral sacroiliac joint disorder & low back pain on that side. One leg bolsters the other so as to hold up the hemi-pelvis on side the SIJ is subluxing; because it hurts to sit on that buttock.
You might also be hypermobile, just sayin'... \U0001f609

BOTOX FOR MIGRAINES: Key to success is depositing the Botox in the best tissue: mid-body & occipital insertion site of the most spastic Superior trapezius muscle; chronic spasm of which induces chronic muscle tension headaches and reflexive Migraine.
Way to discern spastic unilateral Superior trapezius muscle: look in mirror, view your auto driver license photo, & to pinch leading edge of each Superior trapezius to determine which leading edge is painful to pressure & also thicker; from supporting a chronically tilted head.
Looking in the mirror enables the person to view which shoulder is lower. The head usually tilts toward the lower shoulder side; causing Superior trapezius muscle on the higher shoulder side to be spastic from chronically supporting a tilted head (weighs about 10#).
The drivers license photo often confirms which shoulder is lower and provides clue as to which direction the head usually & chronically tilts. Some people pick a posed posture & straighten up when they pose for a photo. Therefore, other and more candid photos might be examined.
Often, especially in hyper-mobile women, the spine is curved with a functional scoliosis (straightens when reclined), and this is explanation for the asymmetric shoulders and tilted head.

A video for people to test for hypermobility.
An experience I have with patients who have stigmata of hypermobility is that I will comment on their widespread joint Hypermobility & their rejoinder commonly is, “of course I do Yoga”.
When patients tell me that my heart sinks. I was excited to tell them that I think that I have an explanation for several of their seemingly disparate symptoms in several of the dysautonomia & MCAS spheres.
Instead, disheartening disappointment takes over as I realize that their yoga devotion has now forestalled my ability to teach them about hypermobility & many attendant dysfunctions they suffer.
When I examine women with hypermobility I sometimes say, “you would be great in yoga”. Often they tell me, “well, that is why I can bend like this, it is because I take yoga”.
the prevalence of dancers, gymnasts, and cheerleading is extremely high in the EDS community. :) I was, too. Here's a video, if you're interested, to test yourself with the Beighton scale: https://t.co/Klrh05MKM7

MICROBIOME AERODYNAMICS & SEDIMENTATION RATES are studied & known. Who would have guessed that studies would uncover cloud formation & precipitation phenomenon as function of bacteria ubiquity & size.
Korean scientists quantify lift off, descent, & propagation of various bacteria “species” in the atmosphere & as high as 1,000 meters. These micro-spaceships average about 8 micrometers (if I got that right).
Atmospheric density of bacteria particles relates, in part, to their ability to nucleate with other airborne particles. Scientists can even differentiate the aerodynamic properties of these bacteria from larger (factor of 10x) pollen spores & larger fungal spores (factor of 5x).
Most surprisingly, these bacterial-driven spaceships can live & propagate while in the atmosphere via nutrient atmospheric milieus & sources of alcohols & other organic substrates.
In the mid-1980’s, Princess Stephanie (sister of Prince Rainier of Monaco) invited me to present at an intimate “Energy Medicine” symposium in that small kingdom. I remember it was their national holiday of fireworks & celebration.

The exercise program is only for persons with less severe forms of Hypermobility (those who are still physically active) & who have not advanced to Fibromyalgia/ wasting disorders (who should begin an exercise only in warm water & until they are ready for walking on land).
My theory how persons with Fibromyalgia, wasting diseases & severe fatigue should exercise is that they should start with very gentle activities whereat gravity is negated & then through gradations of activities whereby exposure to gravity is gradually increased.
The first phase of exercise for persons with Fibromyalgia & wasting diseases should be similar to what was done with polio in the 1900’s: Warm water relaxes spastic muscles & enables joint range of motion exercises with gravity relatively negated.
During warm water physical therapy, efforts include specific exercises to strengthen muscles supporting a body tower able to stand on land; the goal. Trapezium, Serratus ant., Rhomboids, Rectus abd., Transversus, para-lumbars, Glutes, & all leg muscles must be strengthened.
Once standing on land has been achieved, then moving on land is the next goal. Moving would include crawling & walking. During this phase, people might need extra support of a sacroiliac joint belt &/or perhaps even knee supporters in the beginning. Walking sticks might help.
Seems like very drastic measures for a very unproven theory.. \U0001f928 Not to mention a lot of this advice would be unsafe or lead to further issues for those with #EhlersDanlos or Hypermobility https://t.co/s88MHnnrRx

You gotta think about this one carefully!
Imagine you go to the doctor and get tested for a rare disease (only 1 in 10,000 people get it.)
The test is 99% effective in detecting both sick and healthy people.
Your test comes back positive.
Are you really sick? Explain below 👇
The most complete answer from every reply so far is from Dr. Lena. Thanks for taking the time and going through
You can get the answer using Bayes' theorem, but let's try to come up with it in a different —maybe more intuitive— way.
👇
Here is what we know:
- Out of 10,000 people, 1 is sick
- Out of 100 sick people, 99 test positive
- Out of 100 healthy people, 99 test negative
Assuming 1 million people take the test (including you):
- 100 of them are sick
- 999,900 of them are healthy
👇
Let's now test both groups, starting with the 100 people sick:
▫️ 99 of them will be diagnosed (correctly) as sick (99%)
▫️ 1 of them is going to be diagnosed (incorrectly) as healthy (1%)

This is the $1mln question still without an answer: why were these workers cleaning bat guano from that abandoned mine?
Surprisingly we simply don't know.
China would have all interest in clarifying that point if for instance they were prospecting or selling guano. It did not.
What we know is that EcoHealth + WIV were sampling bat sites in the vicinity at the exact time of the workers being in that mine.
#DRASTIC wrote about this and about other oddities in the official story:
Maybe it's just one of these coincidences.
Then it gets interesting: about a year after the miners death, Olival & Epstein from EcoHealth Alliance co-authored a paper about the coronavirus risk infection from bat guano collection.
No mention of the
That paper oddly used some old bat samples collected by DARPA in 2006/7 at the famous Thai bat cave.
It never mentioned that the Thai monks have been doing this every Sunday for many many years without infection.
But most interestingly it never mentioned the Mojiang mine accident, even if the perfect timing and recycling of old DARPA bat samples seem to point to a likely knowledge of it.
Anyway, the idea was to ask for more money, as you correctly

The miners were tasked with removing bat feces. AFAIK it hasn't been established why they were doing this. Given that EcoHealth was collecting bat fecal samples in the same province around the same time, is it possible these miners were actually collecting guano for EcoHealth?
