Default I think that I have noticed this....
....without realizing it. Several times, in fact, but I had dismissed it as a result of excessive bladder activity and dehydration since the Bs are water soluble. If it is more complex than that..... Well let's just say that I'm really going to be pi**ed off if PD turns out to be another vitamin deficiency. Meanwhile, I continue to take a daily B-complex. Maybe we all should since we don't retain them.
