tracy thanks for the reply and yes it is very dififcult to post this on this forum ,but I have come to rely on the advise of the forum members and have never faced this type of problem before ,its like going from one extreme to another and as my body heals from the mercury poisoning I experience good things and not so good things and to anon : yes it would of been great to have this type of libido in high school ,but as you get older It can cause many other problems ,I consider my wife to have a normal drive ,but I have plumb tuckered her out, and as for other options it does not help or take the edge off as you put it in your reply (dude ) ,that is why I reluctantly posted this . to see if this could be a symtom or side effect that could be corrected easily with some sort of suppliment or treatment . thanks for the replies
