Has anyone ever looked into a leaking Blood Brain Barrier?

[[of...]]

I see alot of similarities between our symptoms and people who have a leaky blood brain barrier.. I also see a connection between people who develop alzheimers who have the leaky BBB. This would explain people's food sensitivities along with chronic fatigue syndrome

I think you are onto something.  Have been looking into leaky gut, and then found that changing my diet to a GAPS Intro Diet (all soup broth, meat, few veggies, super low inflammation), changed my symptoms.  And now I think it is leaky brain. 

 

The doctors say I shouldn't be having this hard of a time with WD, and that I must be 'sensitive' to benzo's. 

 

I know your post is old but if you found anything out on this, I would be interested, and will be looking into it.

Cessna, I don't want to get you off track with your own investigating. We can imagine that we have every illness known to man if we allow that to happen. I think some doctors play that game with their patients. If it were true what your doctor said, then everyone on this blog has some kind of special sensitivity to these drugs. Try not to do this to yourself.

Camre,  Yes - that is what my doc meant.  That people like us who have benzo WD's are sensitive to the medication, and don't metabolize it the same, which gives us WD's, and others don't get the same WD's. 

 

This is consistent with what I've learned about this- that not everyone who goes on benzo's has withdrawals.  and that it has to do with genetics, and metabolic and detox pathways.

Hi cessna, leaky BBB, as leaky gut syndrome are not real conditions.
