In reply to Hey Ace a question about Nadil, posted by Robert Fairburn on October 24, 2003, at 3:23:57
> Hey Ace you say that Nadil reduces OCD by 65 % whcih according to my research is a pretty good response rate. Maybee you should agment with a very little amount of luvox, just to help increase seratonin amounts.
Can't do it! It can cause a serotonin syndrome. But other serotonergic meds I CAN augment with are Pindolol, Lithium, Zyprexa (low-dose) and more. But I don't believe serotonin is the problem with my OCD. Or it's only part of the problem.
I dont know if a pdoc would agree to this but I cant see how a little amount could hurt.Unfortunately, even a small amount is very likely to precipitate a serotonin syndrome.
Also Ace I do believe that you should get your blood/ Urine Chemistry checked out.Had it checked- it's cool!
I have learnt a large amount of my own unique body chemistry. Having this information has opened a large amont of treatment options for me that dont involve drugs. Now I know I suffer from the following problems
>
> Low seratonin
> Leaky gut syndrome and hence
> Chronic low levels of Minerals ( hence low seratonin)
> Short chain polypeptide leakage
>
> More tests to come

> Cheers RobertThanks Robert! Do you have OCD yourself? It can be real hard to nail it, but with perseverance I believe you can!
With the probs you have, what sort of things are you doing for them?
Thanks again mate,
Ace.
