Fascinating paper; yes of course structural
and functional changes may result in a difference
in benzo receptors, if you can count them, and
if a test of pre and post-benzo withdrawal
can actually be done, and if you can make a
statistical survey of the side effects of this
observed or supposed GABA receptor change;

It seems that in scientific inquiry in pharmacology you have to use

Statistics - large enough sample that is valid

Coincidence - observations that are not necessasrily causal

Cause - the real McCoy where you target on the
mechanism of biological reactions.

BTW, it is still possible that cat dander has eliminated a percentage of my respiratory and mucal reactions - they have decreased after all, but on the other hand, and we still have pets;
on the other hand at that time I may have started to take Kaopectate, or I may have changed my diet or my mental state.

Medicine is rocket science :-)
