> I'm interested in your theory about your hypersensitive dopamine receptors. I'd like to read up on that. I react paradoxically to a lot of medicines. It's so difficult. I'm jealous of people who can take medication cocktails. I can barely tolerate one medicine at a time, let alone several. My biggest disappointment was developing the tolerance to Dexedrine because it was the only medicine that has really helped me over many, many years and numerous drug trials. I hope that I can benefit from it again some day. In spite of its bad reputation, I really do think it's a good drug, and it's been around for at least 50 years or so. So much research has been done on it, so it's not like taking something that's just gone through a few 6 or 8-week clinical trials and is then FDA-approved and marketed.
Sarah,That's too bad that you're not able to take the one medication that has worked for you. It's so tough when you're medication sensitive. Maybe, as you say, in the future you'll be able to take the Dexedrine again. I certainly hope so. I also hope that you'll be able to find something else that will help you a lot in the interim.
