What we may be seeing is an example of mouse data not translating to humans. If I'm not mistaken, in the recent Harvard study alz was not only stopped, it was reversed. Like you we'll continue taking LiO because it's our only near term hope.

@longboat1 You might want to consider getting your LO's lithium level tested. You can do it without a doc's orders (at least in Texas) at Quest and presumably LabCorp; it's not expensive. It was learning that my husband's level was so low that prompted us (with guidance from his internist son) to increase to 20 mg.
