ZiCam gel

Has anyone found ZiCam to prevent shadows? Last week I thought I was getting a cold and was also having heavy shadows following a kip 8 the night before. I noticed that the shadows left quickly so I've continued using the ZiCam about 3 times a day morning, afternoon, and before bed. Have not had a CH in 7 days now. Just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience. Not saying that ZiCam is actually the reason my shadows and CH have stopped but I can't help but wonder/hope.

Dunno. Zinc does block the NMDA/glutamate neurons, which are involved in peripheral pain.

It also affects other neurotransmitters:

The outer boundary of what we currently believe is feasible is far short of what we actually must do.

Thanks, will keep that in mind   thumb  
 
15 days and only one CH last Saturday. 3 things I am trying, ZiCam, benedryal before bed, and popping my neck at the first sign of a shadow. I don't feel I am out of the cycle yet due to the shadows I am experiencing but the ZiCam and neck popping seems to run them off. I "think" this cycle may have started due to a chiropractic neck adjustment that I had just prior to it starting.
 
I wish we had topic thread for unusual things people are trying so those that those that think/know we are crazy would not be so prone to put us down
