Let me just say again, the amino acid treatment I'm doing is working wonders! I want to yell it as loud as I can! It's the only thing I've ever found in my 23 years of pulling that works! Please read what I've already posted about it... I've put it in recommendations, too, so that it doesn't get lost so quickly.
There IS hope and there IS help!
I guess we have to get in where we fit in and keep trying. This is the most frustrating disorder. I just wish there was more substanital information out there.
To Jenn - Again, please provide more specifics about this Amino Acid treatment. I'm beginning to wonder why you are not more detailed with your information. I applaud you. Since you've been pulling for 23 years (it's been 14 for me) you should understand how hard it is for us to obtain good credible information. We all live in different parts of the country (some rural, some big city, and some in between). The more information we have the better prepared we are to ask questions and obtain information.
PLEASE provide more details. We are all waiting.
My chiropractor is Dr. Dennis B. Reiff here in Lansdale, PA. His phone number is (215) 368-5528, and his email is dbreiff1@verizon.net. I am taking 3 different amino acid supplements, all in capsule form. As I have stated in previous posts, the web site is geared for health care professionals. I, too, found it very confusing. What was exciting to me was finding the list of the disorders and diseases that are caused by or significantly affected by neurotransmitter difficiencies.
I do not at all mean to be cryptic here. I have told you all I know... I am not a health care professional, so I do not have access to the training portion of the website, nor do I have access to the site for the makers of the supplements, (CHK Nutrition, www.CHKnutrition.com). You must have a username and password. The brochure I have says that NeuroAssist does not sell directly. You must go through your doctor. I wanted to just scan the brochure in here so you could see it. I think all this would be easier if you could just read it for yourself. They do not refer to this in any way except "the NeuroResearch treatment protocol."
I know this is confusing, and I've done my best to be as clear as I can. If you have more questions, I'm sure Dr. Reiff would be happy to talk to you.
I have an idea that may help: I'll scan the brochure and pictures of the amino acid supplements and have them ready as an email attachment. If anyone wants to see them, just send me a message with your email address, and I'll send it to you. That way you could have a hard copy as well to take to your doctor.
