Zhang L, Huang CC, Dai Y, Luo Q, Ji Y, Wang K, et al. (January 2020). “Symptom improvement in children with autism spectrum disorder following bumetanide administration is associated with decreased GABA/glutamate ratios”. Translational Psychiatry. 10 (1): 9.

Wonder if Alzheimer’s disease share some sort of connection with autism? The past few years people have been experimenting with diuretics for autism and now for Alzheimer’s.

So that is what Biden is taking.

However, she points out it is probable the future of Alzheimer’s treatments will be highly personalized, as it is becoming increasingly likely the disease is much more heterogenous that previously thought.

“We know that Alzheimer’s disease will likely require specific types of treatments, perhaps multiple therapies, including some that may target an individual’s unique genetic and disease characteristics — much like cancer treatments that are available today,” says Yuan.

Alzheimer's was discovered in 1907, and to date there is no prevention, treatment or cure for it.

Any meaningful break throughs appears to be many more decades way. - Tom

About 4 years ago, I was diagnosed with CHF, and my cardio doc put me on Lasix as my diuretic.

Lasix got its name for lasting six hours. That meant that you were peeing for 6 hours at least off and on.

My RN wife got my Cardio doc to write an RX for Bumex 2mg.

Bumex makes you pee like a race horse for about 3 hours and 1 more before it therapeutic action is gone.

I’m down to one half of a 1 mg Bumex tablet/day 6 days a week.(One day of rest for my kidney’s and bladder)

BP wise, my BP is now normal, and I have lost the 5-6 pounds of weight I had gained. My shortness of breath is basically gone.

Now, Bumex may help my aging memory.

Every day in my own personal battle with the medical community I am in awe of the research scientists and have mostly disdain for the Drs who dont have a clue.

I have a scientific blood test developed for a reason that has been giving the red flag to every DR..and EVERY Dr has had no clue how to deal with it

I credit that test and scientists for saving my life because it gave me the strength to battle when everyone was clueless.

Oh...and btw, those basic function blood tests that look oh so normal...don’t mean everything is fine in your body...and I am going to throw it in the face of every clueless Dr in my next visit...in a nice way...of course
