If I hadn't "self-diagnosed," I'd be dead now, so I'll just add that you can apply the scientific method to your problem (doctors later confirmed by diagnoses). One thing to do is to eliminate possible causes and give it a few months. At this point, obviously, I don't have enough information to even guess at possible causes. For example, does any other "blood" relative have this condition, or a similar one? What is your diet like? Do you stress certain parts of your bodies in ways that are unusual? What about mineral/vitamin supplements? Etc.
As to gravity, I've seen some TV shows on string theory, but it seems like it should be called a string hypothesis, at best. I've found the biological fields much more interesting, because things like health and longevity are involved, and one can experiment on oneself. One thing you might want to explain here is why you conceive of gravity as more of a pushing force. Also, let's say there was an announcement tomorrow, and everything was resolved - a grand, unified field theory was discovered. It would supply details, of course, but we already know that everything does "work," and the only question is exactly how?
On the other hand, there are all kinds of contradictory health, medical, dietary, and biological claims (have you been to www.gilbertling.org). Moreover, it should be a lot easier to use the scientific method here than in string theory, and yet decades go by, and old, directly-refuted dogma persists. Thus, there are also social, political, economic, and psychological issues involved. Being trained as a "social scientist," I can't help but to find these things interesting as well. |
