That's right.
Yes, I left out the thyroid issue, which can be remedied (sp?) with Synthroid, or whatever thyroid med the doc deems right for the patient.
I can go on about all this talk of Lithium, the good it's done for my brother over 30+ years, other family members and a couple of professors I had in college.
I'm tired of the bad rap the med. gets due to this mis or over DXing people. It also comes from our earth, Leopodilite (sp?) I have a chunk of it on my fireplace mantle, I'm a rock and mineral collector.
Lithium rocks!!
