Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS)
VNS
has been suggested to us by our neurologist. Has anybody got any pos/neg experience with that? Has it decreased seizures? Has it led to a decrease in medication? Has it had a positive effect on mood?

In June 2021 I caught covid (delta variant) and the virus caused me afib (atrial fibrillation) but i was misdiagnosed for many months due to cardiologists' mistakes. At the end of December 2021 unfortunately i got covid again

Vagus nerve stimulation
I’ve read of electric stimulators implanted to stimulate the vagus nerve as a number of clinical trials are currently evaluating its effectiveness in the treatment of certain autoimmune dysfunctions. I am currently doing various vagus nerve impact exercises; Wimhoff breathing, ice showers/baths, standing

What's people's experiences on Armour Dessicated thyroid tabs?
I recently changed to Armour Thyroid, although it's called Thyroid-S in Bali. 10 days in I'm suffering huge panic attacks and dissociation- had these before, but was hoping Armour would help calm these down a bit...panic attacks are lasting all day, shortness of breath, complete zoning out where my brain

Vagus Nerve Stimulation for PD
We have posted about the Vagus Nerve and PD before. Here is one article on it: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1935861X20301960 So I was going through my Facebook groups to see what I can cut, and noticed my Vagus Nerve group. It made me put up or shut up and ask the simple question

Vagal Nerve stimulation
Has anyone explored ways of stimulating the vagal nerve as a way of preventing AF as seems to be responsible for possibly the majority of Afib triggers? Wouldn't it be great if just like a pacemaker we could have a vagal nerve implant to give it a jolt when it's thinking of doing it's dirty work!!!

Stimulating Vagus nerve cuts AF by 85%
There's research showing an 85% reduction of AF through vagus nerve stimulation. This was done by passing a small current through the tragus (the little lump just in front of your earhole): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32192678
