> LinkadgeThanks again linkadge, from a few posts of yours i've seen it looks like perhaps your interested in long term anti-cholinergic mechanisms like myself, do you (or anyone else on the board) know of any med or even a herb, works in this manner?
Most of the stuff i've had a look at seems to cause a supersensitivity in acetycholine receptors following down-regulation and i believe both cigarettes (nicotine?) and scopolamine has had this effect on me?! like one of your posts i read im actually thinking if i went back to smoking long term i may be much better!
cheers
