Yes Lynne, please bring two LONG tables.

The number of items currently on deck for my medical bill benefit auction is quite large.

All proceeds will go directly to Roy.
If you are interested in bidding and cannot attend, please find someone who will be present to be your proxy and bid for you.

The pair of Montelliana's for auction were bought on a climbing trip in the Dolomite's in 1980. I have no knowledge of when Montelliana first made them.

The original green Shoenard's were for sale in the early 70's. I've seen pictures of Steve Wunch using them then.

Tarbuster:
I've really enjoyed the trip reports that you have posted over the years. They make any day better. Also,I'm appreciative of the fact that I have no idea about your political ideology. Thank you. I would like to contribute to the auction, so if someone would post up a shipping address it would be helpful. I don't think my taco e-mail is working.

You could mail any auction items to me at Todd Gordon P.O. Box 138 Joshua Tree, Ca. 92252
Then Roy or Rick don't need to lug anything else on the plane beside their Chalkbags, huggers, swamis, and EB's......

My advice is simple, all you need it a hard round abject like a new tennis ball or semi hard rubber ball. I read all the posts no one has mentioned T4 Syndrome. While it doesn't fit with the typical nerve associated symptoms. T4 syndrome is thought to be caused by over stimulation of the sympathetic chain ganglion. (over stressed fight or flight response) Which has a bilateral symptoms on both arms below the elbow.

What to do. Find the T4 vertebrae by counting down from the large bump below your neck to the 4th bump. place the ball on the side of the spine that is the most tender. Lay on the ball and roll back and forth releasing the muscle tension and mobilizing the spinal fixation. Breath, relax and feel and goose bump feeling come over your upper arms and back. This is the para sympathetic response which means you are now in "rest and digest phase. If it over stimulation this should show some progress in a few hours to a few days.

Hope this helps

The T4 syndrome.
DeFranca GG, Levine LJ.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss two cases of the T4 syndrome in order to raise awareness and aid its clinical recognition. CLINICAL FEATURES: Paresthesias, numbness, or upper extremity pains associated with or without headaches and upper back stiffness characterize the T4 syndrome. In addition, no hard neurological signs are present. Upper thoracic joint dysfunction, especially in the region of the T4 segment, appeared to be the major cause of the upper extremity symptoms and headaches. A nontraumatic onset is common and the peculiar glove-like distribution of hand or forearm pain can often lead to a mistaken diagnosis, including psychogenesis. INTERVENTION AND OUTCOME: Joint manipulation, stretching, and strengthening exercises directed at the upper thoracic dysfunctional segments were used with good results. CONCLUSION: Upper extremity symptoms of nocturnal or early morning paresthesias, especially in a glove-like distribution, coupled with headaches and a stiff upper thoracic spine without neurological signs of disease may indicate a T4 syndrome. Manipulation of the dysfunctional upper thoracic segments may relieve these symptoms.

I treat quite a bit of Thoracic and rib dysfunction and know to look for and treat a T4 syndrome. I don't think his presentation is consistant with other's I have treated with thoracic dysfunction and sympathetic issues.

Good advice Dr. Josh. So Roy when I see you in JTree I will adjust your upper thoracics, and we'll see what happens. Looking forward to seeing everyone, The Dr.

Hmmm, the bi-lateral nature of Tar's complaint is the one thing that continual leads back to the spine and pathways from it. Given I think we can all agree Tar isn't presenting in a way that's consistent with any specific syndrome we've mentioned to-date I'd say Josh's suggestion is worth looking into. And while I think it's productive to deal with the localized tissue issues with mechanical manipulations, I have a hard time believing that is or will deal with root causes. This T4 syndrome is now a second possible explanation for the bilateral nature of his upper extremity complaints and wouldn't be inclined to rule out any such possibility without some exploratory work around it. Given the 'work' required is manipulative and widely available I'd say it couldn't hurt at all to check the possibility out.
