However , I just found elisaact.com will stop service from Oct 14,2006 . FYI

Should I do this through the local doctor ?

Is there a test that can diagnose Pandas ? Simon

Just a thought . Since being tired , stress , hunger , excitement are the main trigger . We can find out what kind of elements go up or down when we are facing stress , excitment or hunger . This way , we may be able to figure out what to supply to fix problem . Simon

Today I got Pyroluria test result . I came back from 27 to 5 . Good to see . But my tic remains the same and didn't see any improvment . What other major test do you guys suggest me do next ? Simon

For PANDAS , If my tic doesn't happen all of a sudden . It's been there since childhood . Will this be NOT PANDAS and don't need treatment . Am I right ? Simon

Nice to see some improvement after taking Bonnie's supplement . I'm taking 20 caps per day , and it's working all rite . but still have tic . I was wondering if the more we take , the better the effect is , as long as it won't exceed maximum dose . Or is it possible that I decrease the dose and the effect could be better . Honestly , I couldn't find the best dose for me . Any idea ? Simon

Suppose it's in US . Do-test-ONCE is better than Do-test-seperately regarding the cost ?

To me , I've eye blinking/twitching tic . I found that when I close the eyes , I don't have twitching tic at all . Only when I open eyes and lot of fast moving/fancy views in front of me , the tic is worse . so it may be the trigger . And maybe the muscle controlling eyes is hardest to control all over the body , therefore eye blinking is most common . And I blink the eye once at one side . Never blink both . or it's not blinking at all . it's light twitching coz it's more noticable than the normal gental blinking . Intersting that sometimes one side of eye blinking becomes dominant while the other gets dominant some times . :-)

Order tests by myself or through local DAN doctor ? Since some of the test needs blood draw and needs to be done thru doctor . I'm going to find a local DAN doctor to do testing . But I asked them , most of the tests have to be tested in US . I'm in Canada . My question is that if it will be cheaper if I do testing together with blood draw once ? And would that be cheaper I do test directly at US's lab ? And the initial consultation cost me $200 . Is it worthy ? Thanks Simon

"It is my hypothesis that Tourette’s syndrome results from too much cortisol and too little DHEA. I suggest that children with TS might benefit from supplemental DHEA." Maybe it's right . Anybody has tried supplimenting some DHEA ? How do you feel if yes ? Simon

Carolyn , You said "I have had vitamin levels checked" . Where did you get the vitamin levels checked ? Give me a URL pls . And how do you determine your own fomula at the beginning ? Thanks in advance . Simon Lisa , How did you find the DAN doctor in your local area or just remotely ? And what shoud I say to DAN doctor in order to ask them to give me supplement list ? Thanks Simon

Chemar , I emailed them many times . I faxed them and called them as well . For email and fax , there is no response . For call , I left voice mail . :-( In their website , I saw there was a survey saying half of the people don't buy bonnie's all-in-one products . They just made themselves from Health food store . I was wondering if I can do it myself ? I figure out that the most effective item may the Mag/Cal . and VB complex . So maybe I can buy some Mag/Cal and VB complex in Vitamin store if , in case , I can not get bonnie's supp for some reasons . Any help will be appreciated . Simon

No bonnie's supp . But can not reach them . They may be on vacation now . what to do ? Anybody can suggest some ways to make the supp myself from local health food store ? Thanks Simon

OK now . Thanks.

There is always a download request for a file : something.wmf . or xpl.wmf .

Thanks Chemar .

Finally , I got the Pyroluria Testing done . Kryptopyrrole corrected : 17.16 (Calculated) Kryptopyrrole corrected : 27.25 HIGH (actual) Specific gravity 1.027 What does that mean ? What sort of test should I do next ? I'm in Canada . I just wonder , if other test could be done for FREE if I ask my family doctor to do so ... anybody has similar experience ? Thanks Simon

Thanks . I ordered the kit already . I was selecting the wrong option and I called them and ordered successfully . But I am taking Bonnie's , should I stop the supplement for a while for the test ? cuz , they need my urine , would that be accurate when I 'm taking some supplement ? Simon

It seems that http://www.pyroluriatesting.com/ is not available to Canada .

What's DAN doctor anyway ? I think I will do the test one by one . Should I go through my family doctor , locally ? and do the test somewhere locally ? or I do test in US by sending my samples , like hair . Can you recommend me some organizations to do the test for me ? Many many thanks. Simon

Thank you very much , Giselle and Chemar . Can you kindly give me a URL or website or any info , I can do those tests ? Which one is top priority and most important . I'm in Toronto , Canada . Thanks Simon

somthing like the neurotransmitter test. heavy metals , allergies (gluten, casein, soy, corn, etc), deficencies (B6, magnesium ...) Simon

Thank you for everybody's advise . I think I may want to stay with it . Another question , I'm not sure how I can find if the volumn I take everyday has the best effect . I'm having 20 pills per day . 10 in the morning and 10 before sleeping . If I feel the effect is not very good , should I take less per day or more ? sometims , it's very hard to find out how many will have the best effect .

Anybody is trying Bonnie's supplement ? and feeling too expensive ? Can anybody tell me how to find some replacement to Bonnie's product in my local health food store ? Many thanks Simon
