Trick Photography - From Madrid with Love

Dear Citizens of the world,

I have been duped. The tiny marketing machine promoting a photograghy exhibit of Dayanita Singh got me.

Since I am always on the lookout for exhibits - in order to improve my style by imitating the masters - I decided to visit this exhibit just down the road from my house.

The two main pictures promoting the exhibit were very promising. The girl below appears to be floating in the air - gorgeous.

The other picture "I am as I am" captivates, the whites of her eyes dominate the image and make you wonder who she is staring at and why - haunting.

However, when I went to the exhibit I was disapointed. The rest of the pictures were not at all like these and of far less intrest to me. You never know what you will find. I will keep you up to date on ones that I like.

Until then... Stay healthy, wealthy and wise.

A nasal antihistamine stops Long Covid in an acute infection!

Image
Image created by Gemini AI by Troy Roach (August 2025) This is HUGE if true! Data is impressive in a randomised trial ! TLDR summary: 1. Use the nasal spray daily... especially if you feel run down or like you are getting sick. 2. Definitely use it two times a day during and after an acute infection. 3. It might help with Long Covid and MCAS by reducing histamine, but it is probably not a cure. 4.  Azelastine might be a useful alternative to chlorpheniramine. In a quick search, I see many options for  Azelastine but strange pricing, but only one oral (not nasal) option for  chlorpheniramine. 5. Both of these drugs have been around for decades so they are cheap and there is good safety data on them. 6. I have been using a different class of nasal spray the second half of my LC journey called Avamys (Flonase). These two can be used together and do different things. Flonase reduces inflammation while the studied spray is an antihistamine. If true, regular use ( many infecti...

The Creatine "Cell-Rinse/Flush + Methylation" Theory

Image
  The Creatine "Cell-Rinse/Flush + Methylation " Theory (Made with OpenArt AI, June 23rd, 2024, D. Troy Roach) The Cell-Rinse/Flush + Methylation Theory in four stages:  The cell is sickly and dehydrated has trouble cleaning out the "rubbish". Creatine supplementation increases the hydration, thus the internal to the external pressure gradient while also watering down or "rinsing" the cell.  "Rubbish" is pushed out of the cell into the interstitial tissues for elimination by the lymphatic system, which also works better with increased levels of H2O since it does not have it's own pump to regulate pressure. Overall methylation is improved by the supplementation of creatine which is especially helpful for people with existing methylation issues. Why I am interested in creatine now... I am at that stage in recovery that I can have a mostly normal life... as long as there is not too much stress and I avoid too much low-level (zone 2) exercise or ...

Post-vax biomarkers -- it is Not Psychosomatic!

Post-vax biomarkers -- it is not psychosomatic! "Screen capture from Dr Been's YouTube video on this topic" It has been obvious for years that the research into people who are post-COVID-vax injured would hold valuable insights for Long Covid, MECFS, POTS and many others who have also been suffering for years with similar symptoms -- even long before Covid ever came along! Note:   It took years for researchers to get past the stigma and finally start doing some real research on this subgroup of what could be called a post-viral injury ( PVI ), but it is not always viral... so a bigger umbrella would be Post-inflammatory-Injury (PII) or Post-Trauma-Injury, PTI or Post-Trauma-Syndrome PTS . I like the PTS term since it is more inclusive, but it is important to highlight the fact that "Trauma" here is being meant in the most broad sense of anything that causes inflammation can trigger this syndrome which I consider to be a kind to mTBI (minor Traumatic Brain Inju...
