Wow! That's really amazing that you were able to figure it out. Im sorry your were gaslit by your doctors. That makes it so much worse.
My son has some food intolerance issues that I think are histimine related but im afraid to even ask the doctors for any sort of tests.

I hope you continue feeling better!

No surprise- look at thr history of scurvy.
2 million sailors died of scurvy between 1500 and 1700. But native americans knew pine needles cured it all along. The iroquois cured French explorer Jacques Cartier of his scurvy in the early 1500s and he documented it. But we went on for hundreds more years with millions dying of it because of the hubris of doctors.

This is why ai rocks for medical diagnosis. it will do deeper research if you ask it to and it has no ego.

The behavioral problems are *symptoms.* they aren't the disease.

For more than 100 years, biologists who suggested that some cancers may be caused by viruses were the pariahs of genetics. However, they persevered and incrementally built their knowledge, leading to the discovery of retroviruses, the development of a test to diagnose HIV, and the creation of the HPV vaccine. Join us as we interview Gregory J. Morgan about his book Cancer Virus Hunters: A History of Tumor Virology.

I don't know of any psychiatrists who are using gut brain axis research in their practice

That sounds like a you problem.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33087514/

You linked a research study as an attempt to show practicing psychiatrists utilize get-brian axis with patients???????.?

You are the only person on this thread talking about practicing psychiatrists, you brought it up out of nowhere and it wasn't relevant to PP's point, which was about RESEARCH. That's what this entire thread is about.

No. The pp literally says

Sorry about your reading comprehension problem.
They were pointing out the chasm between what research and practice.

Again, you are the only person here, in a thread about research, blathering about practice. Regardless, the study is relevant because that's how the system works. Research is conducted, physicians stay up to date on the latest breakthroughs in order to inform their practice. But something tells me you don't understand a lot about the system.

Can you actually stop hijacking threads wirh your personal feelings. I assume youre the same person who is constantly trashing these threads and making it hard to read.

Lot of either laymen with google MDs or woefully out of date practitioners in this thread. Not sure which is worse.

How about a website from an actual psychiatrist explaining how he incorporates gut brain axis in his work???????????

If you can't get your point across without insulting another poster you don't have much of a point.

Im sorry your brother suffered from schizophrenia but im happy to hear of his improvements.
Chatgpt has some theories about why someone with schizophrenia might improve after having Gout. Unfortunately this website won't allow me to paste the response here. Basically it thought about immune and inflammatory response, uric acid associated a neuroprotective agent, that both gout and schizophrenia are related to purine metabolism abnormalities and that gout medication drugs might have helped.

Very fascinating. I hope your brother continues to improve his mood and that research begins to catch up
