Guest guest Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 Atma Namaste, I have a male patient, 53 years old who has been diagnosed with Global Transient Amnesia, also with a higher level of white blood cells, he is otherwise healthy. ======================================== Dear Magic, Namaste. Thank you for your email. Medical Background: The syndrome of TGA was described initially by Morris Bender in the Journal of the Hillside Hospital in 1956. Fisher and Adams later wrote extensively about TGA in Acta Neurologica Scandinavica in 1964. Since that time, TGA has become a well-described syndrome, but one whose exact etiology is not yet completely understood. TGA specifically affects memory function. Patients can register information, but retentive memory ability is affected dramatically. Patients are generally 50 years old and over. Many mechanisms have been proposed, but no single cause can explain fully all the features of TGA. These include migraine variant, temporal lobe seizure, and TIA. If a patient is young or has repeated attacks, then the possibility of seizure or even migraine is higher. Some authors have stated that patients with TGA have age and risk factor profiles similar to those of patients with stroke or TIA (Shuping et al), but patients with TGA have a low incidence of strokes on follow-up. Precipitants of TGA frequently include -physical exertion, -overwhelming emotional stress, -pain, -cold-water exposure, -sexual intercourse, -and Valsalva maneuver. These triggers may have a common physiologic feature: increased venous return to the superior vena cava. -The effects of drugs must be considered. For instance, sedative-hypnotic medications, either over-the-counter or prescribed for sleep (especially if used in conjunction with a transoceanic flight), or premedication with midazolam for medical procedures, may cause similar symptoms. Excessive alcohol can cause a blackout phenomenon. Hence, any history of drug-related amnesia may help clarify mitigating causes. -Social history and family history is relevant. Pantoni et al found that patients with TGA have a higher incidence of personal or family background of psychiatric conditions compared with patients who have had a TIA. Prognostically, patients with TGA are less likely to experience a cardiovascular or cerebrovascular event compared with patients who have had a TIA. Neurologic examination of the patient typically fails to demonstrate any abnormalities (other than memory dysfunction). The exact mechanism that produces TGA is unclear. The most compelling evidence in favor of migraine is that patients who suffer from a TGA event have a slightly higher incidence of a previous migraine. However, patients with TGA rarely report an associated headache. They also do not report nausea, photophobia, or phonophobia. Seizure (eg, temporal lobe) is unlikely. TGA events are not associated with alteration of consciousness or stereotypical movements. EEG does not demonstrate epileptiform activity. TIA as indicative of cerebrovascular disease is unlikely. Studies have demonstrated that patients with TGA have fewer cerebrovascular risk factors than those with known cerebrovascular or coronary artery disease. The prognosis for TGA is often better than for TIAs. One theory proposed by Lewis is that venous congestion causes disrupted blood flow to the thalamic or mesial temporal structures. The frequently cited triggers for TGA can increase either sympathetic activity and/or intrathoracic pressure. This, in turn, could cause back-pressure in the jugular venous system, disrupting intracranial arterial flow with secondary venous congestion/ischemia to memory areas in the brain. Conditions predisposing to this scenario might include venous anatomy anomalies, integrity of jugular vein valves, timing of the trigger, and severity of the inciting event. In support of the above concept of venous congestion is Schreiber et al's finding of a higher prevalence of internal jugular vein valve incompetence in patients with TGA versus normal controls. However, the authors of this study could find no particular internal jugular vein valve incompetence associated venous circulatory patterns that could indicate a direct cause/effect with TGA. Reference: Roy Sucholeiki, MD Pranic Healing: 1. Invoke and scan before, during and after treatment. 2. Teach the patient proper deep abdominal pranic bretahing 6-3-6-3. Ask the patient to do 12 cycles before start of treatment and continue prani cbreathing during treatment. 3. After patient has done 12 cycles of pranic breathing, apply general sweeping. 4. Localized thorough sweeping on the front and back solar plexus chakra and the liver. Energize the solar plexus with LWG, LWB then ordinary LWV. 5. Localized thorough sweeping on the front, sides and back of the lungs. Energize the lungs directly through the back of the lungs with LWG then with more of LWO. Point your fingers away from the patient's head when energizing with O. 6. Localized thorough sweeping on the front and back spleen chakra and the kidneys. 7. Localized thorough sweeping on the spine, the upper back and both sides of the neck. 8. Localized thorough sweeping on the front, sides and back of the lungs. Energize the lungs directly through the back of the lungs with LWG then with more of LWO. Point your fingers away from the patient's head when energizing with O. 9. Localized thorough sweeping on the front and back heart chakra. Energize through the back heart chakra with LWG then with more of ordinary LWV simultaneously visualize the heart chakra becoming bigger and brighter. 10. Localized thorough sweeping on the entire head, the different sections of the brain, the ajna chakra, crown chakra, forehead chakra, back head chakra and throat chakra. Energize the chakras with LWG then with more of ordinary LWV. 11. Localized thorough sweeping on the sex chakra, navel chakra and basic chakra. Energize them with LWR. If the patient has fever, do not energize the basic. If the patient has venereal disease, do not energize the sex chakra. 12. Stabilize and release projected pranic energy. 13. Repeat treatment several times a day during an episode. If not having an episode, apply treatment 3 times per week as preventive measure for as long as necessary. 14. For the patient: -Do pranic breathing for 12 cycles per session, several sessions everyday. -Practice the Meditation on Twin Hearts regularly to energize and activate the brain cells and to promote general well being.. -Do low impact physical exercise regularly. -Eat healthy balanced fresh food diet, drink proper amounts of fresh water daily. Love, Marilette 1. Pranic Healing is not intended to replace orthodox medicine, but rather to complement it. If symptoms persist or the ailment is severe, please consult immediately a medical doctor and a Certified Pranic Healer. 2. Pranic Healers who are are not medical doctors should not prescribe nor interfere with prescribed medications and/or medical treatments. ~ Master Choa Kok Sui Miracles do not happen in contradiction to nature, but only to that which is known to us in nature. ~ St. Augustine Reference material for Pranic Healing protocols are the following books written by Master Choa Kok Sui: Science and Art of Modern Pranic Healing, Advanced Pranic Healing, Pranic Psychotherapy, Pranic Crystal Healing.
