I actually hadn't thought about trying cocaine, but now that you mention it... No seriously I don't think that they would appreciate nose bleeds at our meetings !!

Thankyou all so much for your suggestions, I really appreciate it. Apologies for taking so long to get back to as well. Have been out of town for a few days. I will definately try the Hot H2o, lemon juice and vitamin C Bex. The Juice sounds like a good idea too Linda. It is still winter here in Australia but spring will soon be here. I prefer vege juices when it gets warmer for some reason.

I have tried Panax Ginseng and felt no effect, however I haven't tried Siberian Ginseng, which is recommended for females.

I don't think that I am ready for ALA yet. I must admit however that I haven't tried it in conjuction with DMSA though. ALA makes gives me pingy feelings in my head. My capsules are very strong though - 200 mg.

I have just been 2 days now without coffee and I have the biggest headache at the moment. Amazing how this beverage which is incidentally the most commonly used drug in the world affects us so much physiologically. I only used to have one cup a day for morning tea, but it still shows how reliant and dependent I am upon it. More green tea for me!! Doesn't taste as good as coffee though !!

Cheers and thanks from Rachie
