> Please don't confuse my lack of posting for anything else but a lack of energy and focus. First of all, I would feel cheated were you to give up on me so soon for not coming over to any "new way of thinking". I wish I were able to participate more on these boards. My ability to read and think is so very limited, I have to be prudent in the way I apportion my resources.
>I should have known that's all it was since I often have the same problem. (I have since read many of your posts on the alternative board so at this point I don't even think that you're not open to it.)
> I stumbled onto this thread by accident while performing a search on Google about acamprosate. I was astounded that you were aware of the suggestions that it might prevent tolerance to stimulants. It was just approved today as the branded product Campral by Forrest Labs. I'm going to add it to my "toolbox". In what direction are you headed with Taurine?
>You were astounded that I knew about acamprosate? Me, the one who informed you about cholinergic urticaria? (Just kidding.) Actually, I had read quite a long time ago several posts by AndrewB and others on the topic of NMDA antagonists to prevent tolerance. I did hear that acamprosate was recently approved here in the U.S. for the treatment of alcoholism. (It can be easily purchased from Britain with a prescription anyway.)
Are you asking me about taurine to see if I'm planning on taking it to try to regulate immune function and thereby treat my urticaria? I wasn't planning on trying it for that reason. I was just intrigued by Larry's description of what it has done for him. It's not at the top of my list of things to try right now though. I have bigger fish to fry at the moment. Are you going to try it soon?
> Thanks for the kind words and warm sentiments. I'm only sorry that I might be missing more nice things being said about me all of this time. :-)
