Thats brilliant Linda, thanks for telling us :)
I particularly like it when these stories show up online as so many more people than just those in AZ can access it!
(Pssst... is it just me or is Bob getting "younger" every time we read this?! ;) )

Was that the whole article? :-/ I'm not sure how I feel about it. I don't know how a person without any knowledge of CH would react to it. Makes us sound kind of wacky, without going into any of the neuro business behind the mushroom's efficacy. hmmm.

Hey, it's a start though!! That's 3 less inches of print for Britney & Kevin!!

Thanks for posting this Linda,
You should ask your brother why he didn't send shrooms. ;;D

This is an edited copy of the story that appeared on the front page of the LA Times the other day.

http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/front/la-sci-mushroom19nov19,1, 4042944.story?coll=la-headlines-frontpage

I imagine that as it makes it's rounds, the story will dwindle down to..."Illinois man eats shrooms"

Bobw
P.S. Cynthia...we ARE wacky!!
P.S.S. Helen, didn't I tell you that yes, shrooms DO make you younger?

;) Better lock the door Bob. LA is loaded with hippies. [smiley=laugh.gif]
I too am concerned that as this gains momentum, the idjots in the media put the proper context to the use of mushrooms for MEDICAL reasons when other traditional drug therapy fails, this then becomes a less invasive viable option for treatment.
My doctors only concern was that traditional drug therapy was explored and failed to perform. As my neuro put it, "what is worse,CH or using mushrooms to seek relief? You've tried everything else."
Good work Bob

Umm Bob.. I don't think they make you younger but they obviously affect your ability to count :P
It did actually say at the top of the article that it was take from the LA Times one so if I was reading it for the first time I'd have googled that next. Like so many news stories, there is never as much info as we'd like but I guess like in so many other things, every inch counts ;;D

The other LA times link was not working for me. This one below has the entire article on one page.

Fantastic! One inch or the whole page - at least is SOMETHING being published.

Thanks Bob, for working so hard to get this treatment to the attention of the medical community, and to the sufferers.
