Hi folks -

Realized this is too long so have posted each question separately. Feel free to contact me here or privately.

1) Can any of you tell me more about your experiences with rage and low frustration levels? I just go ape**** sometimes, and though I have come to realize that this

is related to my illness, but it is tough to control at times (learning to take 10 deep breaths and just remove myself from people till it passes so that I don't say or do anything hurtful).

I also get suicidally depressed out of the blue. Anybody want to talk about this? Anybody found solutions? I recently got my neurotransmitter levels measured by

Neurosciences, Inc, and it showed 0 epinephrine, serotinin, and dopamine, and WAY over the top norepinephrine. Obviously problematic, although no

one here seems to know what to do to fix it. (I get majorly sick on ANY drugs that affect neurotransmitters, even 5HTP.)

Also - anyone know anything about other tests, perhaps ones that insurance would pay for, regarding neurotransmitter levels and such?

Thanks!

Dr C of MO does neurotransmitter testing. I'm not sure if it's the same one you've had.

Have you been tested for bartonella?? or maybe I should say, HAVE YOU BEEN TREATED FOR BARTONELLA?
