Phillipa,

What Tensor's post said was that the spinal tap was being done to examine the fluid for metabolites for TRD, so the procedure is specific for depression, I don't think it is for any other reason as you suggest, i.e. Lymes.

So it seems to be a new approach to diagnosing and/or treating TRD. Very interesting since it may have to do with evaluating deficiencies of certain brain chmeicals.

Is Europe ahead of us in depression, perhaps so. I don't care who finds the answer, as long as we can all benefit from "the discovery" of something that can be quantified and treated.
