Is spacetime elastic "fabric" that can be displaced and is that what causes curvature and gravity?

Visualization in my head:

Spacetime is like flexible elastic packing foam. I sandwich a ball bearing between two sections of foam. The ball bearing displaces the foam which causes the foam around the bearing to compress. The foam is elastic so it wants to go back to its original state.

Is spacetime being displaced and compressed around a planet? Is that compression what causes gravity and curvature at the quantum level? Like spacetime wants it's space back so it pushes back into the planet. I dunno just thinking.

Intense burning exactly every other day. Can't understand why it's alternating so specifically.

I've had CIPN for almost 20 years. Tried everything including opioids and after that settled on natural kratom powder for the past 8 years. Kratom completely kills the burn but im sick of it so I tapered off. My pain level is spiking badly but strangely it burns intensely one day, the next it's calm then the next day it burns. Its been alternating like this for at least two weeks. Weather effects the pain but it's been hot and humid with ac on everyday and still alternates exactly every other day. Hydration makes no difference. Barometer stable. My schedule is the same every day. Im home all the time. It has always fluctuated but never this on off on off pattern exactly every other day. I cant figure it out.

When they stop being harmless cute critters 😂

Last fall I found one of my chipmunks stashes. I stepped on my patio pavers and sunk. After removing the pavers I found dozens of peanuts and bird seed that had sprouted. It got in by burrowing under a window well. It was covered but it found a crease to slip into. It also burrowed into block steps. It removed sand and stones and placed it in the window well. At least 10 inches deep and covering the basement window. There were also tunnels along the foundation with more nuts and seeds. I had to remove and rework many pavers. Keep and eye on your critters! 😂

Nitrate Topical Spray

I asked Grok if vasciodialators are helpful in reducing the cold burn in my feet from CIPN. My body is warm but feet are like ice. Ive been through all possible treamemts over a period of 20 years. I've never tried improving blood flow to my feet. It says that a small study showed that topical isosorbide dinitrate spray helped some patients. I'm going to talk to my doctor about this soon, but i'm wondering if anyone else has tried it.

Apparently everybody has nerve issues

I have had CIPN for almost 20 years. Saw neurologists for a few years along with pain mgt. Stopped years ago because there was nothing they could do. Symptoms have been getting worse so tried booking an appt at Brigham Mass General which I've been with for 25 years. Every location is booked out over a year. Remote Zoom appointments also completely booked. It wasnt like this years ago. I got appointments within a week to a month. If they are booked I'm assuming everywhere is booked. What the hell is going on?

I can't figure out the variability in pain

I've had chemo induced neuropathy for almost 20 years. Long ago I realized that cold dry air is my enemy, so I try to avoid it. Unfortunately, it's so hot now that I have to use the air conditioner, which usually increases the cold burning pain. Yesterday it was burning so bad I couldn't stand it. Worst pain ever. Today the weather is exactly the same with AC on and my feet are warm with no cold burn. Pins and needles but no burn.

​

Does anybody have an explanation as to why under the same conditions, it burns one day and doesn't the next?

A probably meaningless calculation

Regarding the signals they see when manipulating the earth, I randomnly tossed around some numbers to see what I could see. 1,600,000,000 (1.6Ghz) ÷ 33,000,000 (33Mhz) = 48.4848484848. Interesting at the very least. So if the number 48 ever shows up on the show I'll have a clue ready for them. 👍🏼😂

Rock and hard place: Im so screwed

65 yo male. Got cancer when I was 45. Major surgery and six months chemo. Chemo torched the nerves in my feet and they've been burning for 19 years. Tried all first second and third line treatments for years. Wound up on all the strongest opioids for 10 years including fentanyl patch. Quit opioids and was sick for weeks with no end in sight. Found kratom and finally felt normal again. Also found out that kratom completely kills the burning in my feet better than all prior drugs and have been using it for 8 years.

Like opioids im sick of dependence so decided to taper off. For years I used about 5g four times a day. Over the past few weeks I got it down to about 2.5g. Starting yesterday I went down to 1.5g x 3. Feel like crap. Have only used 2 doses today and will do another befor bed. Sweating, heavy breathing, cold, depressed, stomach cramps, no appetite. Basically flu like symptoms.

Seems stopping the last 2g is the hardest. But the worst part is that my feet are BURNING LIKE HELL. Like my feet are in an ice bucket. Haven't felt this much pain in years. I also struggle with depression and anxiety as my baseline. Also had prostate cancer in 2021. Had it pulled and now im sexually dysfunctional to add insult to injury.

Years ago I quit klonipin over a period of a year but I still keep some on hand for panic attacks. It helps a lot but I dont want that addiction again so it's only a short term option.

So, if I quit kratom I'll live a life of pain and if I keep kratom im addicted for life and feel like crap every 6 hours including when i wake up in the morning. Sometimes i get up at 4am for a small dose. Totally fucked.

Anybody here dealing with debilitating pain that got them hooked on kratom? I spent years at a pain clinic with no relief so I have no hope of a solution.

Excessive sweating and shortness of breath during exertion while on advair?

I've been on advair for about a year. For months, i've been noticing that when I exert myself, I sweat profusely and can barely breathe. When I stop and go inside my cloths are soaked and i feel cold. It takes about a half hour to get back to normal. A couple years ago I spread ten yards of mulch and barely broke a sweat. I just tilled my garden and within minutes i was soaked and could barely breath. Have any of you had this problem? Steroids like prednisone are my enemy so im thinking that this may be the cause.
