Namenda (Memantine) is an inexpensive drug ($7 a month with GoodRX at Walmart). It is used for Alzheimer’s, but apparently could make the inflammation causing repetitive behaviors disappear.

The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Email me to get on either the “Common/Top Issues” (20 - 25% fewer pings) or “Everything” list.

“obsessive-compulsive disorder”

Bah, humbug!

As it pertains to me, because I am Obsessive-Compulsive, but as far as I am concerned it is NOT a disorder. I refer to myself as, “Obsessive-Compulsive-Blessing-Perfectionist! What’s more is that I cannot understand why ANYONE is not a perfectionist in everything they say and do, period!

Interesting. My Mother in law is at later stage of dementia. Namenda has helped a lot. I have some OCD stuff like throat clearing etc. Wonder if it would help me?

Inflammation from vaccines, perhaps?

Several years ago I went through a period of if I turned off a light I would have to go back to make sure I turned off the switch “all the way”. I was compelled to do it...couldn’t stop. I knew it was weird and was so grateful to be able to track it down to when I started taking Ambien for sleep. When I stopped taking it, this compulsive behavior stopped.

I wonder if “immunizations” could cause immune cells in the brain to become chronically inflamed?

I read about this in a book called The Bain’s Way of Healing, by Norm Doidge.

This is not new news.

Which could explain how vaccines are implicated in autism. If the immune response creates an inflammatory response, than if that does not subside like it ought, it could lead to the brain being chronically inflamed.
