Hi kmwhitt
The prostaglandins protocol is definitely a work in progress. It has worked better than anything I have tried. My only problem with it is taking the large amounts of Quercetin (I have a distinct aversion to taking pills after all these years of popping so many vitamins etc, they make me feel physically ill putting them down and they are big ones). I am currently experimenting with other anti-inflammatories.
I know of nothing that is as effective as Parnate that is natural, I am on the hunt though. I do not think parnate is "dangerous" you just have to be a little careful of what you eat - if you're into nutrition and stuff then this probably comes naturally anyway. I have not yet had even the slightest reaction to anything. I can really recommend it and it seems to curb appettite in me anyway.
The hydrocodone is an opiate and yes it should make you feel nice, but I believe that it is not just because of the opiate euphoric effect. I have used codeine before and found it to be an amazing anti-depressant, though I developed tolerance so gfast I now keep it in reserve for really bad times when I need to dig out of a hole rapidly.
There are many people who believe opiates are the best anti d's and there are some people who ONLY respond to them, though finding a doctor who will prescribe them is next to impossible.
There is a thread over on the psycho babble board that is talking about opiates and depression - very interesting.
I think your sugar cravings are not related so much to low blood sugar more that you need heaps of serotonin. Sugar is the most efficient way to push tryptophan into the brain, your body has just got used to doing it this way. Try eating heaps of turkey and chicken (like every meal - I find subway good for when I do this) and following with a banana or lots of died fruit - after a few days your body may learn a better way to get what it needs.
Cheers
