@sladerunner69 You're increasing the activity of ACTH and producing too much cortisol. Mirtazapine allows me to drink around 500 mg with zero problems. I'm going to bump it to 600 mg.
3 drops of Energin (or 100-200 mg niacinamide) every 3-4 hours can help; aspirin can as well. Also be wary that caffeine raises ammonia in doses of 300 mg+, so thiamine (300 mg every 3-4 hours) can offset this. An appetite stimulant can be very helpful with caffeine.
Increased cortisol may be part of the problem, thanks for the advice. I need to try some pur thiamine at some point. However I dont beleive this explains why Im getting GI discomfort as well as burning anus and irritable bowel syndrome after a few large cups. I think that is do to the acidity of coffee, maybe not to do with caffiene. I am going to try to cutback on coffee to no more than x2 daily, and take a caffiene pill.
