In reply to Kramer: Reasons for subtherapeutic Responses., posted by colin wallace on April 1, 2002, at 5:38:59
At this point, I could reiterate what Fachad has said in his 'Be realistic and respect Dr. Kramer's Position' post.I won't, because Fachad has concisely made this point,(almost as well as I would have done!!)the thrust of which ought to have been clear to us all at the outset.
As for my personal post,it is axiomatic here that I accept those (stated and implied) groundrules, and am merely 'bouncing ideas' in an informal setting, and not seeking to obtain a highly personalized diagnosis in preference to a physical consultation in the appropriate setting.
My questions were asked out of inquisitiveness:
Is it possible , I wondered, for an individual to obtain an AD benefit from a tiny, subtherapeutic dose? Answer: Quite clearly you are!Fine.
Secondly,I have absolutely no renal/hepatic concerns, and was merely curious as to why I can get away with such a miniscule med. regimen.
Answer:IF THESE ARE THE ONLY renal/hepatic issues you have.....then yes, you could consider it a bonus.Implicit in that simple answer is " if you had any other worrisome symptoms in this area, I'm sure you would have raised them- in the correct setting, with your own physician".
Of course I would have (and indeed have 'bounced' the same question off my own physician!
Dr. Kramer,please do not let the cynicism and pretentiousness of a few people here taint your opinions of the majority, who are more than grateful for your time and input.
As for(utterly silly) mentions of 'law suits', well, I live in the UK, and I'm glad to say that we, don't yet live in a culture where a person lives in perpetual fear of being legally hamstrung for breathing in public!!
'Dr.Kramer told me to wear those Dr.Bob psychedellic swim-shorts to the Vatican in order to cure my chronic social phobia....LAW SUIT! aaarghh!!
