I apologize if any offense was taken. I take baby aspirin as therapy to thin my blood: two tablets, one in the morning and one in the evening. Occasionally run out and I still notice the effect even without the aspirin. BTW, I had, for the vast majority of my life, rarely ever used any painkillers. Even my aspirin bottles would often expire before I ever had a chance to open their seals.
As you may be aware, I am on dialysis and I do notice that after treatment when they remove water from my system (up to 3 kilos, depending on my weight) my hearing does change a bit as my ears tend to pop. I suspect that it is due to water being removed from my ear canals however. It recovers after a few hours as I rehydrate myself and as the water becomes re-distributed.
As far as the Phiten is concerned, I do not believe it needs much UV to work, and the amounts in regular lighting can trigger its workings. At least I can feel the effects under incandescent and fluorescent lighting. I do notice when lying in bed with no lights on, the effects are not very noticeable. As I had previously posted I have a fistula in my left arm where they fuse the artery and vein so the circulation is a bit short circuited in my left hand. For a long time, my left hand was noticeably colder than my right and when removing the wristband I do notice that the hand drops a degree or two. That being said, some of my other friends report no change in circulation with the use, so it may be dependent on the individual.
