Hi Owen,
G'day mate it's Scott again. Could you please explain why vit B12
(I'm sure I could look it up and find out but I'm a little strapped
for time with the new bub).
Also, does the list think it possible that there is a psychiatric
disorder taking place here, much like pyschiatric blindness (supratentorial)?
Just a question. Other wise what about a slower Guillian Barre type
virus induced problem? Probably not likely I suppose.
Scott.
