Wow! Theres an interesting point! ALA!!! About 1 1/2 weeks ago I started taking ALA again as I had run out acouple months ago and also decided to give DMSA a break (after 7 or 8 months) can't even remember, guess my memorys not healed yet. But that could be it! Maybe its the ALA stirring stuff up agian and agravating the candida smptoms which have been quite a struggle lately. I'll stop ALA, thx Stuart. And Bex thx also for posting that adrenal post again. I've read it 5 times but have to keep doing it as I forget. (theres a surprise) Thanks for all your patience! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Diane
