mazzy...the sound sensitivity can be a symptom of hypoglycemia..i have it too. It could also be sensory integration dysfunction. I guess it could be a few things, but first try cutting back on sugars, bad carbs, and see if that doesn't help. I was surprised to learn it was a symptom of blood sugar bouncing around....good luck.

Well I learned something new today. I never knew that sensitivity to sound could be associated with blood sugar levels. My sleep problems starting around the time I was diagnoised with Type I Diabetes. I sometimes have large swings in my blood sugar level. Overnight is the worst time. I have awoken with it at 25 and sometimes over 400. I'm doing better now though. Normal is 70-100.

Thanks for that info.<br><br>Post edited by: Debby, at: 2007/08/10 09:04

Jens4tune... LOL... it's my husband... he snores very loud... and as he gets older... he is getting louder... LOL.

I have been on a low carb diet most of my life... I eat very healthy nutritious foods... no artificial sweeteners... but always seemed sensitive to sound.

I got the end of the View today and a commercial closing out the show was about an interview with Star Jones on GMA tomorrow morning. I think this is her first morning show interview in quite some time.. I think she made a showing last year right after the bruhaha went down at The View..

Anyway, I think the new barrage of info around Star and her 'revelation' is more of a media campaign to promote her new project at Court TV...

I might tune in...more out of curiosity than anything else..

I'll check it out. I don't have a problem with Star, but, the court Tv coummunity is apparently very opposed to her new show. It seems they don't believe it is in keeping with the Court TV format they are used to. They definitely don't like her. I think she is facing an uphill battle there.

I just heard why she and Rosie got into a huff way back when. This was before STar left and before Rosie was picked to come aboard. Apparently, Rosie made a comment that rich people should support Martha Stewart in her time of need, (at the time she was facing criminal charges), the way black people stood behind OJ Simpson. Well, Star took offense for whatever reason and said she would never sit on a stage with Rosie after that. I guess that's why Star knew she was on her way out when the Rosie selection was made.

I have also heard that Star was a huge OJ supporter, ever cheered and cried when he was acquited, however, when she got to The View, she played it down.

I find it laughable that Court TV would think her show (and I don't even know what it will entail yet!).. wouldn't fit in their lineup..

They seem to be changing all sort of things there.. Even beginning to start their own entertainment shows.. They had a show that debuted last winter or spring.. that seemed to mock and make fun of spousal murder.. titled &quot;Till Death do us part&quot;...

I found a link about the show .... From what I saw of the show, it was in very poor taste.. There was a deliberate attempt to take true stories and exaggerate them for entertainment value..

The host John Waters, was dubbed &quot;The groom reaper&quot;!

I was on another forum..and people were talking about how funny it was.. I just thought the whole concept was disgusting for a court tv show (or any show for that matter!).. and disrespectful to the families of the victims whose stories they were mocking.

The embarkment of that show.. and the overkill of coverage when the Anna Nicole saga was going on.. showed me where Court TV was going. I thought at one time it was supposed to me more educational than entertainment..<br><br>Post edited by: KPW1956, at: 2007/08/15 19:54
