Narcolepsy can also cause temporary paralysis, in which the person is unable to talk or move when falling asleep or waking up, and hypnagogic hallucinations, potentially frightening dreamlike experiences that sometimes occur in stage 1 sleep. Almost everyone with narcolepsy is affected by excessive daytime sleepiness and sleep attacks, and about 70% may experience cataplexy; temporary paralysis and hallucinations are less common.20
Sleep researchers have discovered that people with narcolepsy experience a reversal of sleep stages. |

It is the temporary home to thirty psychotic and homeless men. (Or not so temporary: lengths of stay among its residents range from a few days to seven years.) The Barracks looks like a rundown, sprawling Gothic casde, complete with turrets. One wouldn't be surprised to see a moat around it. As it is, there is a security station, with metal detectors, where the men are searched and scanned as they go in and out all day long.
At the Barracks, Rex slept in a metal bunk bed in one of a dozen dark gray dorm rooms, all along the linoleum-tiled hallways. |

Though not all research supports the idea that water can actually increase metabolism, one study did show a temporary increase in metabolism by as much as 30 percent for a temporary time (approximately 30-40 minutes) after 16 ounces of water were consumed leading to an additional 24 calories burned.19 While this finding may have more to do more with overall hydration status, water has been shown to affect and alter metabolism. |

Many of the suggestions provided in this lesson are temporary measures. We do need a good, healthy amount of all three food classes in our diet. In some sections below, I recommend a certain food class may be limited, or totally eliminated, from the diet. This is a temporary measure only! For example, if we are "Eating For Spirituality" we would remove fat from the diet. We will eventually need fat in the diet; however, this is a temporary suggestion to achieve a specific result. |

Seizure (jerking or staring) caused by fever (about 1 out of 3,000 doses)
?Temporary pain and stiffness in the joints, mostly in teenage or adult women (up to 1 out of 4)
?Temporary low platelet count, which can cause a bleeding disorder (about 1 out of 30,000 doses)
SEVERE PROBLEMS (VERY RARE)
?Serious allergic reaction (less than 1 out of a million doses)
?Several other severe problems have been known to occur after a child gets MMR vaccine. But this happens so rarely, experts cannot be sure whether they are caused by the vaccine or not. These include:
? Deafness

A similar temporary derangement, little regarded, befalls the young hands on first entering other textile factories; but not, we believe, of equal severity with that observed in the flax-mills" (376).
In highlighting shoddy and flock fever (due to wool work) and mill fever (predominantly due to flax work but also seen in other textile mills—that is, cotton), Arlidge was the first to consider the inhalation of contaminated organic fiber dust as a generic common denominator of fever at work. |

Symptoms include discharge from the ear, slight fever, a pain that intensifies when the ear is pulled or touched, and possibly a temporary loss of hearing.
Otitis media or middle ear infections are caused by bacteria or viruses and are most common in infants and young children. Symptoms include a high fever (103?F or higher), earache, and a feeling of fullness or pressure in the ear. Children will often pull at their ears. |

Once the body is out of danger, the brain continues to signal the adrenal glands that there is a temporary need to keep the adrenaline level elevated. Higher than normal adrenaline levels cause an increase in appetite, which encourages the body to eat more calories and replenish fat stores. In acute (short-term) stress situations, the adrenaline level will soon return to normal once the immediate appetite has been satisfied. |

People may endure temporary droughts, but desertification forces emigration once the land can no longer sustain either grazing or farming.
Desertification is not just happening in Africa. More than a tenth of Earth's land area is desertifying—about a third of the planet's dry lands. Studies over the past fifty years report a pace of desertification in regions with between 5 and 20 inches of annual tainfall that, if continued, would desertify most of the entire semiarid zone in this century. |

Other temporary neurological symptoms, such as weakness on one side, may also occur.
Migraine sufferers usually develop their own coping mechanisms for intractable pain. A cold or hot shower directed at the head, a cool wet washcloth, sometimes a warm bath, or resting in a dark and silent room may be as helpful as medication for many patients, but both should be used when needed. A simple treatment that has been effective for some individuals is to place spoonfuls of ice cream on the soft palate at the back of the mouth, to be held with the tongue until they melt. |

Nux vomica: If you are prone to allergic rhinitis symptoms when stress levels are high, especially if this is combined with a lack of sleep, reliance on junk foods and caffeine to 235 keep the pace, and cigarettes and alcohol to unwind, use Nux vomica. Signature symptoms include itchiness and irritation in the ears, throat, and/or roof of the mouth. The nose may be unpleasantly sensitive to strong odors and perfumes, with repeated, violent bouts of sneezing. |

Its flexibility is temporary. Once Bakelite plastic has become set in a fixed form, it is what it is, which is certainly not elastic.
To make a polymer de novo, elasric or otherwise, one musr begin wirh individual separate units, or monomers, and then link them together into polymer chains. Nature carries out this daunting task quite cleverly. Of course it has the advantage of time, employing, as it does, biosynthetic strategies learned through millions of years of evolutionary trial and error. |

Hot, stuffy conditions make everything feel worse, while contact with fresh, cool air gives temporary relief.
Nux vomica: Think of this remedy if hay fever symptoms are noticeably more troublesome after a period of living in the fast lane with high stress levels. Common symptoms include a rough, raw sensation in the throat that feels as though it has been scraped. The nose is oversensitive to odors and violent, abortive bouts of sneezing are preceded by an unpleasant crawling sensation in the nostrils that may be worse on the left side. |

Does Primal Therapy have its failures? Yes, but not nearly as many as what I saw when I practiced Freudian analysis. We have a very hard time with those who took many LSD or Ecstasy trips, or those psychopaths who incorporated the therapy into their tendency to scam and fake. There are those who are very defensive and shut-off, who take a long time to open up, but if they stay with it, they are often successful. |
| But clearly, it was only a temporary solution because the real terror was so deeply hidden as to be unimaginable. Once she felt all of her terror, the little fears did not have to leak out here and there. She connected to a hidden memory. Failing that connection, the fears will continue.
Let us suppose those fears were channeled into elevators, a fear of being enclosed, as the object of terror. The terror is deep brain; the focus is higher brain. Psychotherapy cannot cure a deep brain terror by a discussion with the higher brain; it is not where the wound lies. |
| Similarly, a therapist's concern and kindness is worth a temporary 20 milligrams of Prozac, a substitute for serotonin. This is why many people become addicted to therapy. We go back for it over and over again, often not knowing why, yet having someone to listen to us exclusively is very comforting. What most of our drugs do is replace the chemicals lost or diminished during the imprint. Early love provides the optimum amount of serotonin in our systems. But lack of love creates deficits. Prozac steps in to do what mother should have done. |

A doctor can prescribe drugs to replace the missing clotting factor in the blood, but these are temporary, artificial and have numerous side effects. The body's perfect timing will be absent, as well as the superb coordination of a dozen related processes. By comparison, a man-made drug is a stranger in a land where everyone else is blood kin. It can never share the knowledge that everyone else was born with.17

According to dermatologists, skin color is genetic and no chemical can permanently lighten skin — although hydroquinone can produce temporary whitening effects, as can the heavy metals chromium and mercury, both of which have been detected in skin whitening creams sold in Asia. After the SK-II incident in China, media organizations in Hong Kong tested a range of skin whitening creams and reportedly found chromium in products made by Clinique, Estee Lauder, Christian Dior, Max Factor, Lancome and Shiseido.6 Mercury has also been detected in several products made in China and Taiwan. |

Floodwaters released from the confines of the levees roared down onto the floodplain, submerging farms, towns, and sometimes even whole cities beneath a temporary lake. In 1852 the river jumped its dikes and flowed north, flooding cities and villages and killing millions of people before draining out hundreds of miles to the north. More than two million people drowned or died in the resulting famine when the river breached its southern dike and submerged the province of Henan during the flood of 1887-89. With the river flowing high above its floodplain, levee breaches are always carastrophic. |

Mercurius: If oral thrush leads to noticeably bad breath and increased saliva to the point of drooling (especially on the pillow at night), use Mercurius. Confirmatory symptoms include a flabby-looking tongue that becomes imprinted by the teeth in older children and adults.
TIP: AVOID HOT AND ACIDIC FOODS
Since the mouth is likely to be sore and sensitive, especially in babies and toddlers who suffer from oral thrush, avoid giving any foods that are too hot or acidic. |

In an animal experiment, a single whole-body heat treatment for 6-8 hours caused a temporary reduction in tumor size and a delay in tumor growth among animals with breast tumors. [J Cell Physiology 177: 137-47, 1998]
Another intriguing combination cancer treatment was investigated in Japan. Researchers there used heat treatment combined with omega-3 oils. The oils were used to induce cancer cells to become more vulnerable to the heat treatment. The combination of the two induced higher levels of free radicals (oxidation) to kill off cancer cells in an animal experiment. |

Bringing temporary relief to the symptoms may be very desirable for the patient and gratifying to his doctor, but in the long-term, such an approach makes it increasingly difficult for the body to heal itself. Oftentimes, this leads to chronic illness. True healing occurs because of the existing mind/body connection, the removal of internal congestion, and the body's own inherent healing power.
The body's powerful healing mechanism was clearly demonstrated in a classic study on three groups of patients, all of whom suffered from bleeding ulcers in their stomachs. |
