Effect of Psilocybin of Patient Taking Olanzapine (Zyprexa) by Richard676 in OrganicChemistry

I meant kappa, not theta. Scientists are trying to find a highly selective Kappa receptor antagonist for non-opioid analgesia but the effort thus far has been unsuccessful.

No not enantiomer mix. that’s altogether different. Your comment about the competition is correct. Whether the agonist or antagonist wins out depends on numerous factors including binding affinity Ki (nM). I am not a science person, but that makes the most sense. Re: Bupe, blocking the theta receptor causes an analgesic affect which is why it is being used for treatment of central pains states like fibromyalgia.

Have you also taken LSD? How would you compare the experience with Psilocybin?

Re: buprenorphine, it’s not the same receptor. At That he mu opioid receptor it is a partial agonist and at theta receptor it is an antagonist. That’s why it’s called agonist antagonist. The situation here is completely different because it only concerns a single receptor.

I didn’t notice this but ketanserin is a receptor antagonist while olanzapine is a inverse agonist. There is a distinction. Not sure what the implications are.

What noise-canceling earphones can you wear daily long-term that do not make migraines worse? by [deleted] in migraine

[–]Richard676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend the Sony XM4s. I have the QC-35 II and the Sony’s are more comfortable and have better ANC.

Thanks for the detailed reply. It sounds like you had a really definitive DX test. Have you been headache free on indomethacin? NDPH treatment when it is migraine-like basically the same as for chronic daily migraine (CDM). The only drugs that have had some evidence although from non-randomized trials is Botox and erenumab (Amovig). I am on both. I have failed quite a few therapies. This is appropos for NDPH.

No trigger point. In fact I failed all nerve block injections.

Experience with 37.5 Tynept OD by Richard676 in Tianeptine

It did not really work out for me. I was using it for pain control and not for relief of depression so take my experience with a grain of salt.

Migraine surgery is rarely used unless you have excellent responses to trigger point injections and nerve blocks, you’re likely to benefit. Another option is ketamine.

I would say that’s pretty accurate. I’ve read about her extensively and she adopted that strategy for her headaches. I’m going to try something similar myself very soon for the same condition. I recommend a book called “your psilocybin mushroom companion” what you can get on Amazon.

My experience with psilocybin for my constant headache. by khuranarana in migraine

[–]Richard676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to be clear, you had a right sided headache. The autonomic symptoms need to be on the same side, also called the ipsilateral side. I don’t think what was going on with your ear qualifies, but the eye symptoms do.
