> smi2le seems to have gotten a new business manager to run things (a guy named Jeff). He has actually responded to a couple of my e-mails and informed me about the Idebenone and Sulbutiamine being on long-term backorder.
I hope they can get it together, I've always had the gut feeling they have good intentions but are perhaps not very good at business/logistics.
> I have found that I have a very sensitive response to anything that increases NE levels... which is surprising seing as how my NE levels are so low.I don't find this that surprising, beer with me for a second. Say my normal level is middle of the road, conveniently 250. If I take something that raises it by 25, for *me* that might not be a big thing, it's subtle or maybe I don't even notice a 10% difference. If you have a level around 26 now you're talking about a huge jump, relatively. Enough of me talking out of my rear.
I'm curious how it was determined your level of NE is 26 , I didn't think such tests existed. 26 what?
> Actually I have found a lot of relief with using the Taurine. I am using it in combination with GABA (both bought in bulk powder). Along the lines of 1 to 1.5 gram Taurine with 1/2 to 3/4 gram of GABA. Seems to have allowed the cutting back of both the Xanax and Neurontin and the use of Ambien as a sleep aid rather than the Restoril.
Still haven't tried taurine, I did experiment with GABA at around 2-3 grams around bedtime. I can't say it made a huge difference but it was something. Have you tried theanine?
