> Took my first capsule of acetyl-l-carnitine (GNC 500mg) today with lunch. This afternoon I heard stuff I'd never noticed before in a familar piece I was listening to with my headphones. (A pp tremelo by the other players as the cello was being plucked violently roughly in the middle of the last movement of Shostakovich's 9th string quartet... a clue to my PB handle there) ;-)

I'll see if those ever make a reoccurance while I'm on ALC. The past several years I've also had difficulty picking words out of some people's speech and almost always the lyrics out of rock songs (not that that should necessarily raise a red flag *rolls eyes*).

Hey D --

Have you had a proper hearing test lately? I have the same problem (hard to understand speech) and traced it to a loss notch at 3kHz in my right ear. It's a 10dB loss -- huge.
