Since HTML is not allowed...need you to find the links to the following:
"whether an oral contraceptive (OC) containing drospirenone (DRSP) (3 mg) + ethinyl estradiol (EE) (30 μg) (DRSP + EE) could modify psychological symptoms and whether it could modify steroids interfering with the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-A receptors.
Conclusion(s): The results suggest beneficial effects of DRSP + EE on psychological symptoms by
decreasing DHEAS."
Beneficial to lower the levels of DHEAS?!
"Women With Higher Levels Of DHEAS Have Better Cognitive Function"
"dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), inhibit the production of TNF in vitro and in vivo."
Who is at greater risk?
Those who have the HLA-DR gene type and already have allergies/asthma.
Adrenergically blockaded conditions = AdBCs include the following: respiratory allergies, skin allergies, and asthma.
IgE will go thru the roof. Allergic reaction. Th2 pathway.
""It has also been shown that young women exposed to intensive stress situations,
with low plasma of dehydroepiandrosterone
sulfate (DHEA-S),
and a recent use of contraceptive pills are most at risk for
onset of autoimmune disease."

has anyone used low dose lisinopril for kidney issues? i'm having an acute attack of nephrotic proteinuria and the kidney doc wanted to start me on lisinopril but we are waiting to see my latest round of blood work. my blood pressure has remained low (110 over 70 average) and since i've had asthma and other respiratory allergies, i'm pretty sure i would get the dreaded cough.
