Electronics for IBD

Post by nerdhume »

Interesting article about the latest idea to treat the inflammation by stimulating the vagus nerve.

After reading the article I realized this nerve may have been the cause of pain I was having at the back of my neck and down my spine. This was one of the problems that lessened as my diet came under control. Didn't realize the nerves could be effected by the autoimmune response.
