Thanks Larry,

 

I posted this last year already though: http://hppdonline.com/index.php?/topic/2081-ach-suppresses-the-spread-of-excitation-in-the-visual-cortex/?hl=acetylcholine

 

I'll leave this up for a few days before removing it, so discussion can be continued there.

Keppra is a racitam, so works with acetylcholine.  Some HPPDers report it helping.  For myself, it helps DR some ... and so do other anticholinergics I've tried.

Thanks Visual.  I did not know you posted that previousely.  What is there available to boost acetocholine?

 

Keppra was not tolerable for me and many others, mostly seen on discussions from the previous board.

Choline is a precursor for acetylcholine though mild.

 

Here is a chart of meds that alter acetylcholine levels http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylcholine#Drugs_acting_on_the_cholinergic_system

 

 

 

And this is an ultra cool diagram:

That's a great diagram! And just by looking at it I can see that my glutamate and serotonin receptors might be completely fuked

By that chart, I'm deficient in everything, lol.

Good chart.  Just as some info.  A few years ago the neurologist I was seeing had talked to Dr. Abraham about HPPD.  Dt. Abraham had mentioned that anything that increases norepinephrine will increase HPPD symptoms.   As we know everyone is different.
