Couple of initial impressions:

1) Thought it was very interesting bit of information but the implications of gene profiling is a little unsettling.

2) Inflammation seems to be a frequent underpinning culprit in many maladies. If not always precisely a cause, sharing an associated biochemical pathway.

The study population was made up of 284 depressed Mexican-Americans from Los Angeles

They went through all that effort to fill jobs American minorities and teenagers used to do as entry level jobs, then found out they couldn't even get a job in LA?

I'd be depressed too!

Oh wait.

I'm
out of work
out of equity
nearly out of savings
and the IRS says I owe them a whole bunch...

Proper genetic screening would have seen all that coming.

If you think you need a grief counselor to talk to about this trauma, think again.

I feel your pain -— I’m in a similar situation, although it is the state, not the IRS that says we owe them a bunch.

I wasn’t.

At least my Darling Daughter is healing up nicely from being impaled on a fence...

Inflammation seems to be a frequent underpinning culprit in many maladies.

Chronic inflammation has been identified as the source of many of the troubles in the auto-immune realm. See: What is the basic definition of Th1 inflammation?, and the rest of the site. Also www.bacteriality.com.

Depression is a common symptom among auto-immune patients, as well as other diseases, see Amy Tan's story of Lyme-induced depression at Literati with Lyme.

Interesting links. I have a cousin with a difficult to treat case of Fibromyalgia. She’s been to several docs with no success. I’ll pass this info on to her.

Thanks.

While following the links you provided, I came across THIS, which should provide even more hope and information.

He just talked about how our intelligence was doubling and we in 20 years we would have a virtual reality. He seemed to skirt around the issue of a God and said his religion was invention. His predictions have been correct so far. He invented a device that reads for the blind around the size of a cell phone and costs $2,000.

Scary, interesting.....

Great. We’ll be twice as smart, and half as wise.

Thanks,my FRiend. “Oweing” the state is actually the least of my worries. I’m more worried about keeping a roof over my head.

Me too!

I’m somewhat looking forward to telling them to go pound sand if they try to push me.

Something about blood and turnips...
