Some of you may have read my posts about visiting a hospital multiple incidents of dangerous numbness down one side of my body. A couple of years later I experienced numbness of my face and jaw, along with major head pains behind my one eye (and a more general headache that brought me to the brink of vomiting). The pain behind my eye interferes with my life so much that sleep is difficult to obtain. Beyond that, I feel most calm when resting and not speaking too much. I have to work to live and retire so I don't have a choice and refuse to back down permanently.
Out of desperation I am currently on a lengthy fast. Doing a bit of house chores to improve the effectiveness of the state of autophagy which is generally hit at the 16-17 hour of fasting but really doesn't maximize until at least 24 hours. Some say 48 hours.
Wish me luck, I am going to try and last as long as I can. I even drank some black coffee to assist. I will report back any improvements in these pains behind my eye and other general, at times frightening symptoms. Even if it just decreases them I will pursue a fast again and again with prayers to G-d they help.
