I continue to Amino acids therapy on my father and adjusting the doses and suddenly at the below dosages many of symptoms disappeared or changed from sever to mild :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
L-dopa (Mucuna 98-99 %) = 20.7 grams/Day (6x3.45 grams)
5-HTP= 150 mg /day (3x50 mg)
L-tyrosine = 21.3 grams/Day (6x3.55 grams)
L-Cysteine = 4.5 grams/Day (3x1.5 grams , first dose at noon)
B-6 = 300 mg/day (150mg PLP + 150 mg time released)
others/cofactors :
Vitamin C (1000 mg) , Selenium (400 mcg) , Folate (400 mcg) ,Active B-Complex srt (2 tablets), L-Lysine (500 mg) , B12 (1000 mcg) , Calcium Carbonate (240 mg), NADH (10 mg) , Probiotic Complex (1 capsule)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Symptoms improved are :
- His night sleep problem solved , he sleeps about 8 hours last two nights.
- His mental status is very better.
- He watched TV some hours , (Before He did not)
- He eat a few more foods by mouth , (He is using NG tube about two years)
- Almost No delusions (just about 10 min / day) . Before he have delusions about 3-4 hours per day and all of night time.

Symptoms not changed:
- His physical activity . (its about 2 years that he cant get out from his bed)

I am deciding to increase L-tyrosine dosage in next weeks , and try some minor changes to 5-HTP , But wont touch L-dopa . coz at this point I think L-tyrosine could manage minor L-dopa deficiency.

Any users here who are on this protocol could advices me : After reach to balanced doses , how much time needed to see full benefits of this therapy ?

thx a lot for reading ....
