 When a specific emotional trauma takes place, the body chemistry takes a "picture" of that trauma and memorizes the physiological responses; in other words, the body preserves the biochemical response to the emotional trauma through the neuropeptides. Over time, that traumatized body response pattern will weaken the meridians and other body structures associated with the event, ultimately causing symptoms or a disease, until the traumatic response pattern is released. "NET is really about the physiological aspects of emotions," Dr. Walker says. |

 The "recovered memories" of early life abuse and trauma uncovered by psychotherapy have proved to be highly unreliable and have often resulted in the retraumatization of the patient. What works better for victims of such trauma is a very direct, specific approach—based not on mining the past, but focused on improving the present. |

 Although there is no information as to whether a relation exists among these three factors, one guess would be that women with lower income and less education might do more physically demanding jobs that could lead to injury. trauma of some sort is commonly reported at the outset of symptoms. The trauma can be from an injury or even following serious surgery.
As people segue from having just widespread pain to having FM, they also start looking more and more like patients with CFS. |

 There was Milissa McKee, a pediatric surgical fellow, who provided much of Josie's day-to-day doctoring, always under the supervision of Charles Paidas, the director of pediatric trauma at the hospital and a world-renowned pediatric trauma surgeon. An entire team of pain specialists, anesthesiologists, and nurses kept Josie comfortable with methadone, a powerful narcotic, and other painkillers. Half a dozen intensive care nurses rotated through the unit over the course of a day. Amal Murarka was Josie's
43 pediatric intensive care specialist. |

| Stress Due to trauma Can Cause Colon Malfunction
Negative emotions can interfere with healthy colon function, but physical stress probably comes to mind first when people think about what wears them down. trauma (such as pain after an accident or surgery), chronic work-related stress (such as long hours and repetitive or boring work), and especially spinal misalignment can overstress the colon and impair digestive processes. Americans are known for working long hours while most other industrialized countries work fewer hours ... and they are healthier for it!

 For one of my patients, who was traumatized by losing both his job and his girlfriend, I suggested that he start each day by getting to the gym, to keep from stewing in the trauma. He could also shift the flow from fear to action circuits by making a list of potential employers to call—a more classic example of active coping—but it wouldn't affect the brain as broadly. By doing something other than sitting and worrying, we reroute our thought process around the passive-response center and dilute the fear, while at the same time optimizing the brain to learn a new scenario. |

 Or you can even use the idea of parallel worlds, which I will cover in more detail later, to imagine a new outcome in which the event or trauma never occurred in the way you have previously remembered. The really weird part about doing this is that after you have successfully accomplished an activity of this nature, sometimes you or another person involved in your trauma can no longer precisely recall the details of it. In essence, you can learn to Time Travel backward to when something wasn't! Mathematician Roger Penrose presents the logical view that time cannot be pinpointed at all. |

| Trauma of some sort is commonly reported at the outset of symptoms. The trauma can be from an injury or even following serious surgery.
As people segue from having just widespread pain to having FM, they also start looking more and more like patients with CFS. They develop more problems with fatigue and unrefreshing sleep, and often complain that even minimal exertion produces a dramatic worsening of their fatigue. I will discuss the overlap between these syndromes toward the end of this chapter. |

| STROKE—HEAD trauma RISK
When scientists examined the brains of nuns who had died, they found that nearly all of those who exhibited signs of Alzheimer's, such as brain deposits of a protein called beta-amyloid, showed evidence of a previous stroke or other forms of brain injury, such as head trauma from a car accident.
It's not yet certain that a history of stroke increases the risk of Alzheimer's, but it does seem likely that a stroke can accelerate the onset of symptoms and cause more rapid disease progression. |

 Modern day shaman Sandra Ingerman says of soul loss, "whenever we experience trauma, a part of our vital essence
'Martin Prechtel separates from us in order to survive the experience by escaping the full impact of the pain." In this context it is seen as a safety mechanism for the soul, by which it can retreat from the trauma of life and "live a parallel existence in non-ordinary worlds. |

 Level I also means that a trauma treatment room equipped with state-of-the-art equipment is always available for seriously injured patients and that a trauma operating room is always ready for surgery.
A Level II trauma center is at a slightly lesser state of readiness in that the designated trauma center staff may not necessarily be in the hospital, but must be available within thirty minutes after a trauma alert is called. |

 Emergency rooms and trauma care
Another thing I really like about America is trauma care. Yes, I'm talking about emergency room physicians. They are the very best in the world, in my opinion. And even though I'm not a big fan of general practitioners and their drug-and-surgery approach to medicine, I'm a huge fan of the technical expertise of emergency room doctors.
These people save lives each and every day, and they do a great job. I've always said that U.S. doctors are fantastic technicians, and when you get into a trauma situation, you want a great technician. |

| What works better for victims of such trauma is a very direct, specific approach—based not on mining the past, but focused on improving the present. Short-term crisis counseling immediately after a traumatic event—the kind practiced by no doubt well-intentioned social workers and psychologists who descend on dazed victims and witnesses after some immense tragedy, like school shootings and Hurricane Katrina and 9/11—has been shown to be unhelpful, and sometimes destructive.37
Medication or therapy, it is important to understand that there are no panaceas. |

 Studies in 2002 indicated that as many as 35 percent of the individuals exposed to the trauma of 9/11 could be at risk for developing post-traumatic stress disorder.10 Five years later, that possibility became a reality when the high-school-aged children who initially experienced America's worst terrorist attack began showing an increased demand for anxiety-related treatment.
In March 2007, the Yale Medical Group reported on a study conducted by the Anxiety Disorders Association of America (ADAA). |

| High levels of RBCs in the urine can indicate trauma to the kidney or urinary tract, cancer or urinary tract infections.
PREVENTING ERRORS
The automated instruments that are used to analyze blood are precise, and most CBCs are accurate. Similarly, few mistakes are made in a typical urinalysis, but errors can occur.
Best ways to avoid lab errors...
•Make sure your doctor or hospital uses an accredited lab. Yearly inspections are required for labs that are accredited by various organizations, such as the College of American Pathologists. |
| There can be a fair amount of psychological trauma from the shock, and it is actually fairly painful," notes Dr. Jeffrey J. Goldberger, director of cardiac electrophysiology at Northwestern University. He was not involved in the study, but has extensive experience with patients who have implanted defibrillators.
THE STUDY
The international study, led by Dr. Stuart Connolly of McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, included 412 heart patients who received implantable defibrillators at 39 medical centers in the United States, Canada and Europe. |
| Some people have a genetic predisposition to getting the disease, but other factors—such as education, staying mentally active and a history of head trauma or stroke—are thought to play a bigger role.
MANY VARIABLES
Epidemiology is the field of medicine that examines the differences between people who get sick and those who don't. The goal is to identify factors that cause or contribute to disease, such as genetics, diet, exercise and vitamin intake.
Over the years, researchers have used epidemiology to try to identify risk factors for Alzheimer's disease. |

 Headaches can be vascular in nature, such as migraines, tension headaches, or cluster headaches, or due to an infection, trauma medication, high blood pressure, or a tumor. Depression and anxiety can also be associated with headaches. A severe headache that comes on suddenly should be evaluated by a doctor.
Keep a diary: A headache diary should be kept so that triggers can be tracked. Once a cause can be isolated, make any necessary modifications to your lifestyle or diet to avoid further episodes. |
| Hypericum: This remedy follows Arnica well and can be used to great effect where there is trauma and injury to areas that are especially well-served with nerve endings, such as the fingers and toes. This remedy is called for if you have sharp, shooting pains that are very sensitive to jarring movements of any kind.

However, some of the patients taking amiodarone reported side effects such as abnormally slow heartbeats and lung and thyroid problems, according to the researchers.
INDIVIDUALIZED APPROACH
The researchers considered whether amiodarone or sotalol should be used immediately after defibrillator implantation or some time before the first shock occurs. Their answer, based on the study's findings, was that therapeutic decisions should be made on an individual basis. |

| Conventional treatment is dependent on the cause of the pain. If trauma is associated with the neck pain, then X-rays are usually needed to rule out fracture.
To treat muscular strain: Muscle strain is the most common form of neck pain. Any muscle can be strained and pain will increase when you make any movement that involves the muscle. Treatment is predominantly rest. Applying ice for 15-20 minutes three times a day, and taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is also helpful. When the muscle is healed, it is important to perform strengthening exercises to avoid further strain. |
