Hey There,
I wonder how much our illness is involved with tolerance to medications/loss of effecacy with medications. The drugs usually stay the same ... unless your switched to a generic with different potency. So, maybe it is our illness/brain that is changing .... and our illness/brain is less responsive to medication. Most diseases are not stagnate .... they wax and wane overtime.
This idea I saw in previous posts ..... It makes sense in a way. People with HIV often develope resistant to medication over time. The drugs work the same .... just the HIV virus mutates to a form which is resistant to the medication. Most individuals with HIV go through several difference medication cocktails because of resistance.
