Ill be flying to the Minnesota Clinic to see a neurologist there. They asked I bring along the results of the Spinal Tap I had emwhen I had Encephalitis at 13. I believe theyre going along with my suggestion that my Mental Illness could have an Autoimmune Cause. Since I had Autoimmune Encephaliitis when I was 13. And will be testing my Spinal Fluid for AutoAntibodies that could disrupt Neurological Function.
In recent years, many articles have been written on Autoimmunity causing Psychiatric Problems. Theres a berry good book about a woman who suffered and was diagnosed with this called Brain On Fire. She had many symptoms of Psychosis. But long story short, she didnt need Antipsychotics. She needed immune therapy. Since she came from a wealthy family, she went to the best doctors who, instead of pushing pill after pill on her, actually tried to help her. Its sad to think of how many are less fortunate. I expect there are many, many others omwho are suffering from an autoimmune condition causing their suffering. But are only being given Antidepressants and Antipychotics. Because theyre more efficient and cost effective.
