WOW! I stumbled upon this thread a week and a half ago. I looked into pyroluria and realized that I had almost all of the symptoms. The lack of dream recall was the kicker. I used to have quite an active dream life till about 7 years ago and then poof. I have also become much more of a loner as I am aging which is another red flag with pyroluria.
I was diagnosed bi-polar twenty years ago. When I didn't respond well to meds, pdocs would change my diagnosis. It has been depression, agitated depression, add and depression, GAD, anhedonia, PTSD and the list goes on. None of the meds prescribed ever really helped and I have just gotten worse with age. I have had my thyroid and hormones tested and always came out normal.
After reading this thread and everything else I could find on Pyroluria, I decided to give the B6 and zinc a try. Amazing! Within the first few days, I was remembering my dreams. The doom and gloom phantom fears that have plagued the past decade of my life are lifting. I am exercising! I haven't had the strength or motivation to do that in years!! I am listening to music and dancing around my house instead of lying on the couch for 12 hrs a day watching Law & Order reruns. And last, but not least, my libido is coming back. All of this after only about 10 days on the B6 and zinc.
I can't believe that none of the dozens of pdocs that I have seen over the past 20 yrs ever mentioned this. I will keep y'all posted.
