you using adderal two days a week and it making you feel better... is that a placebo effect?

the fact that the doctor was unaware what metals i handled before the testing

There are ways for doctors to find out what jobs you previously held Hell a basic google search of your name yields much more about yourself then you think.

Since you still insist that the placebo effect isn't a possibility, do you know of the story of the man who was told by his doc that he had pancreatic cancer? He actually didn't, but had been experiencing pains in that area just by coincidence and the doctor called this guy in by accident rather then the guy who actually had cancer. Both of them visited within the month for x-rays. Guess what happened to the guy who got called in but didn't actually have cancer? He developed cancer within a month, because he was 100% convinced that he had it. Kinda like you're 100% convinced about your stuff?

Im gonna repeat again, I never stated that YOU are a victim of placebo. I was just giving a friendly reminder that as Shakespear would always say in his plays, all is not as it appears to be. The friendliest and knowledgeable people can be the shadiest. Trust me, I work in sales and marketing. Heres a part of my original post just so you stop with the idea that this was a personal attack directed towards you and saying that OM is full of shit- I didn't. But I will say this- keeping a skeptical mind usually works out for the better in the end. But who cares, you seem 'fine' now.

Im not saying your doc is a cook and just wants your money, but when in any position of power and when you possess information that most people don't know about, it's only a matter of time before anyone would use that to their advantage and most likely in deceit. I would take it all with a grain of salt imo. You feel better? Great... if you feel that its because of the orthomolecular medicine then keep doing it. In the end it's all about how you feel, right?

well i met wit dr camo this morning and we talked for awhile, mostly how i've been doing... i told her i was having some problems sleeping and was unable to get at least 8 hours in and she upped my 5-HTP to 400mg and told me to use chelated zinc and magnesium before bed on top of my mineral supplementation... i told her about the results of the metal tests and that treatment was able to end sooner then expected... i also told her i honestly felt i had no hypothyroid or low adrenal issues any longer and she said that it's possible but she said why don't we wait for the test results in two months... makes sense of course, but i can still think it i told her! of course she agreed... she didn't remove me off of any of the supplements or herbs other then the deaner's fluid... i told her i still catch myself talking out loud sometimes or so does my wife... that i still have idea's just pop into my head out of nowhere and that i sometimes get the idea that others are talking about me from time to time but i'm able to put the idea out of my head quickly... she said everything will be fine...
