It was an article by him that led me to the conclusion that I have the dopamine autoreceptor problem (which may have been caused by or exacerbated by CFS). I just got a more recent book of his out of the library. It's called "Betrayed by the Brain". There are a couple of things he mentions that I will post on this board or the main board soon.
Thanks for the post, Ray.
