Hello,
I am in distress. I have been suffering from severe depression, and severe anxiety since I was 8, medicated at 8. I guess I was a difficult kid and had behavior problems, diagnosed with ADHD in my 20s, and have suffered for over 25 years with chronic debilitating muscular pain. Relaxation has never been a word in my vocabulary and my mind is always ruminating on everything my pain and whether I can survive this. I have relief from my pain only the first day of my cycle. It is really unbearable. Now I am not functional, chronic fatigue, cannot sleep, eat, concentrate. In pain all the time, worried about my life basically. I had a really bad diet for most of my life, sugar, and little protein. I am working on that and hope to have the energy to start the Ultra Mind Solution diet. Based on my neuroscience tests, I have very low serotonin, high dopamine and neuroephinephrine levels and very high cortisol levels. On 5htp, theanine, rhondala rosa. I am wondering what other tests my doctor could prescribe for me to figure out my complicated case. Please any advice is appreciated. I am so very uncomfortable and don’t know if I have the strength to deal with this pain. Any help is appreciated. I cannot read your site cause I cannot concentrate on anything. Thank you Lisa Forman

Lisa,
No disrespect to your local doc, even if open minded, but you will quite likely turn around more quickly with a systems medicine doc who can measure and treat your likely deficiencies across the board. My favorite next test for your, heartily recommended, would be the Metametrix Triad Profile with it’s subset of nutritional and IgG4 testing subsets. Since it sounds like you already have access to a doc using NeuroScience, he/she might take this next testing step.

Your high carb diet significantly alters insulin, estrogen, and cortisol, the big three, and if you don’t have a formal disease [like diabetes] at this point your prognosis is excellent with a vigorous change in diet [only long chain carbs], removal of offending antigens, and replacement of all the missing nutrients.

In my office I mix pharmaceuticals carefully with the other neuroscience products with good result. If you have had ADHD there would be no harm in using a stimulant – unless, of course, you can’t take meds with all the GI deterioration.

Yours is a complicated, but significantly correctable condition following these next steps of more information – and a more aggressive supplementation strategy base on that next evidence.

would someone with narcolepsy, glaucoma and a twitching of fingers in one hand

be a candidate for neuro-science or…would a SPECT scan tell where in
the brain these problems occur.; so best medical treatment could be advised for all conditions?

Thanks very much for your time.

Ginny,
I would start with the less expensive neurotransmitter [NS] option, with a good psych eval, and a good neurological eval including heavy metals. SPECT is always useful, but since the neuroscience is often helpful, without knowing any other psych details, I would start there. Narcolepsy very often a problem correctable with NS testing and meds if indicated.

Said another way, NS is the micro view, closer to the molecular physiology, SPECT helps with complicated missed psych macro diagnosis.
