Long since the hypothesis as to proinflammatory cytokine overactivation relative to depressive aetiology.
Recently - my joints are clicking like crazy (relative to 'itis - inflammation), and I have blood in my stool (possible colon inflammation).
And of course long standing severe depression - or depressive symptoms - despite being a happy-go-lucky, spritely individual.
Are there like, inflammatory biomarkers that can show up in blood tests?
And if inflammation is an issue - how is it treated?
I know there've been trials on NSAID's - minocycline - downregulation of proinflammatory proteins - and diet modifications to increase anti-oxidants etc.
But the only thing that's been effective for me is high dose combination monoamine based enhancers.
Apparently they can also downegulate proinflammatory proteins - according to more recent data.
Any insights here??
