Interesting New Approach to Psychiatry
Caroline's psychiatrist is really into a new approach to psychiatry looking at all of the neurotransmitters, not just serotonin, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. He uses a lab called NeuroScience, Inc, and their website is www.neurorelief.com. Check them out. He found that many of her neurotransmitters were awry, and her cortisol was off, and her progesterone was too low, making her estrogen dominant. He prescribes all natural supplements as well as traditional psych meds. He is hoping we can reduce the amount of meds she is on, and the dosages if possible. We shall see. I am initially a little skeptical, but if it works, that will be wonderful.

Hi, I hope you have good luck with the neurotransmitters. I used NeuroScience in 2006, and embarked on several months of using various products to bring my dd "into alignment." Here we are, 3 years later and on 4 meds...sigh. Maybe there is more technology related to it now, since it does seem to suddenly be "the big thing!"
Do keep us posted!!!!

I'm hoping it works for you and your daughter.
Are you still going to Trinity? We are getting a pastor from there next week to speak while Pastor Rich and his family are visiting family.
Yes, we are still at Trinity, have been since it started. Both of our pastors are wonderful. Hope you like him!
Yes, indeed, very interesting. We don't know nearly enough about treatment yet. I think there is so much on the horizon but it is difficult to find the right mix and the opportunity to be on the cutting edge. Sounds like the psychiatrist is excellent!I look forward to hearing how this works out for Caroline! Fingers crossed!
That is a great approach, in fact, I think that I will mention it to my psychiatrist. He is also a psycho-pharmacholgist so he will probably be familiar with it. I hope that it all works out well.
Happy New Year!
