Old School,

That's pretty cool. It seems once those dopamine receptor couplings get fouled up, its tough to reset things. Maybe just need a good "shock" to shake things up! I tell you at my job I work with new age computer technology and I probably shake shit to get it to work as often as I microanalyze it. ;)

I really look forward to some positive results.

Best Wishes,
John

> Bilateral ECT fixes TD the best of any treatment I read. ECT has anti-parkinsons but anti-psychotic properties at the same time...cool huh? ECT does something to change the supersensitivity of dopamine receptors around, decreasing TD levels.
