Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Hi, I live in the tropics, San Puerto Rico. About maybe 15 years ago I went into the very warm waters of the sea during a patron saint celebration. I had to be carried out as I got paralyzed. After that experience I take great care in the heat, and totally avoid any hot water. Cold water has the complete opposite effect. It has helped me when I have been feeling like I will get " akinetic " like my doctor says. Just my own personal experience. All my best, Margie >From: " Tom " <trp001@...> >Reply-low dose naltrexone ><low dose naltrexone > >Subject: [low dose naltrexone] Fw: Hot whirlpools >Date: Sun, 10 Jul 2005 18:14:34 -0600 (Mountain Daylight Time) > > >I have been having trouble with my email.
