Larry,
I'm going to try to start this thread over because it's getting too long and complicated to follow.Ok, it may be a win-win situation but you are still a very sweet person (unless you've managed to pull the wool over all of our eyes).
"petitio principii (begging the question)" - very impressive. I'll have to try to remember that one.
I agree with your l-tyrosine and l-phenylalanine argument against those who don't believe. As they say, the proof is in the pudding.
"Flowers for Algernon" is a book. Here's part of Amazon.com's blurb about it: "a mentally disabled man whose experimental quest for intelligence mirrors that of Algernon, an extraordinary lab mouse. In poignant diary entries, Charlie tells how a brain operation increases his IQ and changes his life. As the experimental procedure takes effect, Charlie's intelligence expands until it surpasses that of the doctors who engineered his metamorphosis. The experiment seems to be a scientific breakthrough of paramount importance-until Algernon begins his sudden, unexpected deterioration." (Of course Charlie's deterioration begins shortly thereafter. It was made into a movie many years ago with Cliff Robertson called "Charlie".)
It's heartbreaking to see him watch himself go downhill and lose his life. So my referring to it was a more emotionally charged way of saying that I don't want to experience poop-out once I've finally found relief.
Regarding breakdowns, yes, I do know. I had one of those too. NOT FUN.
Ok, I'm going to answer my posts here, work on spreadsheets for tomorrow and then read the articles you suggested on adrenal fatigue and homocystein.
Thanks again,
KaraS
