You know Kate, i think the same thing;
though I have no medical background, i
just get the same ideas that you have
from general reading; Kraeplin for example
and his colleagues suspected that manic
depression may be a metabolic disease from
the fluctuating excretions of uric acid
and other metabolic circular changes, like
temperature and thyroid changes
... that would be a difficult
thing to stabilize indeed.Squiggles
