It's discouraging to me that others haven't been doing well with it. One has to remember this isn't TM, yoga, imagery or anything out of the Depak Chopra school of thought. It came from a neurologist who had the bedside manner of Josef Mengele but was a great man in my view as he had a pamphlet on his desk about CH, and until that time I was convinced I was at death's door. He was a retired Rear Admiral, and had no time for fools. It's entirely physical and although, one may have to keep this up for 30 minutes, anything is better than doing nothing. I got so I could knock the shit of the damn things in usually less than 15 or 20 minutes. Sometimes, it would work instantly. It would just completely shut down the pain and all I had to do was wait for the next one. If I were alone, I could sometimes entirely abort the attack. I hope people read this.
