        <description>What are Blood Patches?

As Blood Patches play a significant roll in the treatment of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks, it is a good idea to understand what they are about.  This is the simplistic version: blood does not belong where it is put. The immune system sees this foreign body and attacks it, that in turn forms scar tissue at that site, and it is the scar tissue that seals the leak.</description>

        <description>My passion  and hobby was to always be Frugal.  In the early years of our marriage it took a while to get Hubby on board with the plan.  Once he was on board we got all of our debts paid off and never went back.  If we did not have cash in the bank to cover an expense we did not buy it.  Simple as that.  This allowed is to pay for the sudden unexpected trips to places like Durham to get treatment for my CSF Leaks.  You&#039;ll have a lot less stress and better  health in your life when you and yours …</description>

        <description>The element Gadolinium (Gd) is commonly used as a contrast dye during MRI&#039;s while looking for CSF Leaks.

Gadolinium-Based Contrast Agents (GBCA) are intravenous drugs used in diagnostic imaging procedures to enhance the quality of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).</description>

        <description>Enteric Nervous System (ENS)

The Enteric Nervous System (ENS) is the system of the Gut that medication, GMO&#039;s, and bad nutrition in general play havoc with.  The ENS is sometimes referred to as the Second Brain.  It gets this Second Brain moniker due to the fact that a properly functioning ENS makes 80% of the bodies Serotonin and other brain related chemicals.  Medications et.al. particularly antibiotics at a very young age (typically for an ear infection that is in actuality a food allergy/se…</description>

        <description>CSF Leaks are almost always misdiagnosed as migraines due to CSF Leaks being so unknown by the doctors, not due to it being rare.

Food sensitivities, which are different than food allergies, are the most common cause of migraines that always gets overlooked.</description>

        <description>Reasons Why The English Language Is Hard To Learn:

	*  The bandage was wound around the wound.
	*  The farm was used to produce produce.
	*  The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.
	*  We must polish the Polish furniture.
	*  He could lead if he would get the lead out.</description>

        <description>The followings make me wonder if Karen&#039;s suicide was caused by a parasite, as odd as that sounds.

I highlight the CSF related items, of a lengthy article, in the following:

        <description>Hubby originally wrote this in 2006, for 
FidoNet which was the precursor to the Internet we know today.  Hubby ran a Bulletin Board System (BBS) for Matric where he worked at the time, which was a FidoNet node.
