Some health concerns. (long read)

This group is absolutely amazing, It is exactly what I expected and yet more.

I notice a few things that Centralforce discussed with other Zevism regarding symptoms I may have and others.

Lets start with more obvious ones.  I have a very fluctuating diet, and the same goes for my water intake though generally I feel to drink water often and because of that naturally I urinate as such.  But sometimes I get unnaturally sweaty and or clammy and uncomfortably hot, waking up early just to urinate.

My sleeping patterns are also unstable but I want to try getting up with the Sun like I used to for highschool only with an early bed time to match.

But some days I just feel "dried out" in an odd fog if I get up at early hours.  Ive noted my elevated stress levels and my impulsive irritability, especially with sounds and heat.  I normally have a balanced desire for hot and cold weather but its like I just get more irritable in humid hot air.  My mother has bad sinuses but Im unsure if its her smoking and age worsening that.  I have typically average but sometimes troublesome ears and throat related aches.  Eyes and mouth can have thick films sometimes and Im not sure if thats a good thing for moisture or a sign of imbalance.  Tinnitus, yes, pretty much always had faint ringing in quiet rooms long after removing the noise stimuli.  Speaking of Tinnitus, another thing relating to Saturn, my joints.  Im only 22 years old, but my mother swears I have the most popping joints than anyone she paid mind to in her family.  Im supposed to have "bad feet" based on my Saturn placement, but to be honest I rarely ever had a complaint about my feet per se, despite having cracking big toes since childhood.  However nowadays I do feel like the shins and knees can get irritated without warming up or overdoing it.  My pelvis crests can pop if I sit too long, my back and neck I always crack, wrists, ankles knees, etc.  My elbows actually have this genetic deformity that makes the medial tension rub over the bone and pop so many exercises are debilitating if I use my elbows too vigorously despite the weightlifting Ive gotten used to.  Im not tall, Im 5'6 and pretty dense muscle and fat, but I can fluctuate my weight vastly depending on my mood.  I know this is dangerous to say, but my Saturn is in Pisces.  And that is in my 6th or 7th house (uncertain birth time but more likely my 6th).  As for my moods and sense of security, Moon is in gemeni.  I have Mars in my first and my main ruler is likely Venus but could be Mercury.

I try to stay hydrated and despite cold water seeming like the obvious option I decided its not very soothing or balanced so I drink room temperature water.  My water is chlorinated and yes Im well aware of the obvious threat of cancer and dermatological disorders with such, as I already have the irritated scaly skin and dried hair and eyes because of it.  Recently we got a filter and it works with no odor or taste of chlorine yet I still wake up hot the next morning (having to urinate wakes the body up and heats it?).  Im wondering if warm clean* water is a temporarily better option to drink for getting the mornings and metabolism started.

Also, for the last 5+ years, and ever increasing in frequency, urination is mildly to moderately painful if I don't have enough actual urine and or if I get tense like Im expecting to be rushed or my posture is tense it can feel like the inner back part of my shaft (Im a male obviously) is being pinched by finger nails or something.  I highly doubt its a bladder infection as its an on and off occurrence I control with some* success to relax totally, but that doesnt help if Im not hydrated enough.

My tongue has had the mild white film basically most mornings and for years* Ive had a tongue that had cracks on the sides which look like I tried to bite my damn tongue off.

My Dental health is not the worst, surprisingly though teeth are crowded and Ill be getting my wisdom teeth removed as they are the only real problems of my mouth due to extreme crowing, and improper growth and or impacting.

The teeth for years seemed to be transparent and yellowish white despite recent frequent brushing.  I try to use Tom's non fluoride toothpaste but I was given anti bacterial mouthwash which I also used Crest whitening fluoride rinse (I know my bad I was desperate to get my wisdoms to stop hurting).

I stopped exercising like I was so into (lifting weights, body weight exercises and a lot of jogging) to basically nothing.  A weird transit of Uranus to my Mars upset that balanced and many annoying pains an insecurity in my willpower fluctuated.  For about half a year I was lazy, then started suddenly to lift weights again.  But i noticed my muscles, especially biceps and chest had this quirk where Id flex them suddenly and they would feel like they weren't done contracting after I already let up.  That came to pass as I got more active recently.

Sex drive and sense of passion for many things didnt disappear but are pretty much decimated to nearly chore level entertainment.  Im ambitious yet very negligent on consistency due to my spontaneous nature coupled with these alternating moods.  Some days I feel like a schizoid personality disorder, others I feel manic depressive, and some Im content and clear.

The final issue, another thing lasting years now.  This happens on some days when Im trying to jog or really move my torso about, and most days not even having to be active but just laying down on my back deep breathing or stretching my torso a certain way.  I bet its related to my liver or some sort but Im not sure.  When I lay on my back especially and try to deep breath, I feel interrupted by this dull to moderate knobby ache on the right upper mid ribs in the solar plexus area.  It can be felt if I press really deep into my solar plexus area as well.

Sorry to make such a tedious post but I want to take the time to sort this out.  Ideally when I get a blood test this will all be sorted out hormonally, but we don't have insurance yet, and Im getting the feeling thats a blessing in disguise to begin the path of self healing.

Coffee is a diuretic and thus can help remove excess fluid from the body. This doesn't mean however that you should drink 5 cups per day. 1 cup of fresh filtered black coffee on an empty stomach is sufficient.

As for qi Gong, the Ba Duan Jin is a set of eight exercises which regulates all body systems, when done daily for any length of time. They are also easy to learn and it only takes a few minutes per exercise.

Acupuncture points to massage include:

- stomach 40 fenglong
- ren 12 zhongwan
- Liver 14 qimen
- colon 4 Hegu
- Du 20 Bai Hui

2 times per day, 1 minute each point on each side of the body, except ren 12 and Du 20 which are midline points.

The locations for these can easily be found online.

Ejaculation, like any physiological function, uses yang qi to some degree.

It also moves fluid and essence out of the lower burner, which is good to remove damp and stagnation.

Excessive practice without complementary cultivation, like any other excessive bodily function uses Yang qi and expels essence. If a person tends toward excessive damp and stasis, then they are likely to be able to do this more with a net beneficial effect in removing the damp and stasis.

A person who is deficient is more likely to require far less and to suffer more from excessive ejaculation however most people under 50 years old wouldn't even notice.

Essence that is retained (not ejaculated) and in the presence of a well functioning and clear flowing meridian system can be transformed into clear blood in the liver but persons who have major liver stasis or fluid stagnation are more inclined to benefit from the draining nature of ejaculation than holding onto the yin essence.

THANK YOU!!!!! I highly appreciate all your advice. Ill come back at a much later date if any symptoms develop but I think you gave me plenty to work with.

By the way, Centralforce, what is your opinion on this series?

https://bookstore.qigongmedicine.com/pr ... physiology

The Amazon reviews suggest this is for advanced practitioners and is very thorough.

I have the PDF of the older version of this series which is not that different in composition, revisions aside.

Would you or anyone like me to email the PDF?

Seriously though, I need to know how one deals with mouth health.

My teeth are transparent yellowish and brushing and flossing etc barely do shit.

Also, my lower wisdom teeth are actually impacted and Im on a month and a half wait because the dental surgeon is booked.

So Im going to be annoyed with these pains with little control regardless of what food I do or don't eat.

I have clove oil, it only works on exposed teeth not a tooth hidden under the gums pushing on my second molar, it just wont do anything.

Any advice? For pain relief or the sort?

I void meditated on it recently with moderate success but after the day went by and exercising I just decided to pop the pain advil, which only works sometimes.

Those stupid commercials only make those special things for those who smoke or drink a lot of black tea.
Inside your tooth there is something that is yellowbrownish in color. It is soft and rubbery like and .. People dont know what it is.

When I was youger my uncle did an experiment with a cats tooth and a glass of cola. 2 days I believe he said was how long the tooth was sitting there and he showed me too what was left k
Of it. The inside, the outer layer, with calcium and such was completely gone.

Okay. So your problem appears to be lack of calcium in your teeth, either through bad eating habits or lack of correct minerals, like magnesium or vitamine K or K2 I think? There are some others that are necessary as well.


Alright, flushing with chamomile tea could help when youre getting teeth. Unless you have an allergy to aspirine you could also try willow leaves, chew on them in example.

And you could try breathing whitegold healing light into it.


If someone else has other ideas they are welcome too.

Kidney Essence flows up to nourish the teeth.

This process requires an uninhibited flow of energy in the body.

Damp accumulation blocks the flow of the vital substances and thus the teeth are not nourished.

If the damp accumulation is removed, the oral health should improve.

Thank you both again, and what about jaw popping, with occasional aches when over exerted?  The popping itself doesnt really hurt but it gradually developed over these last few years.  Also damp accumulation obstructing?  Or is it something deeper?

#27

I doubt I have any sort of arthritis but between most of the body popping, my left thumb having a tad less range of motion with pain if forced in that direction, and my muscles and tendons having erratic pains like they have mini tears despite not over working them much.  Im really wondering how my Saturn in Pisces affects this.  Which is in my 6th or 7th house.  Sorry, I am repeating things at this point to clarify.

#28

I weightlifted a lot in the recent past fyi, heavy weights in many cases but nothing too out of my league.  I did it for years.

#29

If you deal with the damp, it will improve blood circulation.

Blood supply and circulation to local tissues is required for the proper nourishment and lubrication of the sinews.

Once the damp is removed, there may be underlying blood deficiency which needs to be addressed however attempting to rectify this in the presence of overt damp will cause the dampness to become worse, particularly if done by herbal medicine.

So, what could be the cause of things like frequently itchy or dry eyes (usually from poor sleeping happens, but I also sleep with a fan)?  
Also, the whole excess warmth at night and the effects of chlorinated water Im pretty sure are contributing to imbalanced skin like this red scaly rashy stuff on my face near the nose and such?
