Yeah, a close friend of mine finished at Cornell in the early part of that run. When I asked what it was like for fans, he said they just assumed they would win. Harkness must have been a driven man who understood how to apply that drive to coaching young (Canadian) men.

Lack of potassium? My wife got bad cramps during pregnancy and eating foods high in K got rid of them.

Well, they did see 63 consecutive home wins.
But you stay at a Holiday Inn Express, right?

Question for a doc
is there a name for a metabolizing issue, where certain drugs are metabolized too quickly in the liver and therefore ineffective?
I’ve had the following pills prescribed to me over my life for brief ailments and none of them worked. I mean- felt like a sugar pill.
codeine
OxyContin (wasn’t prescribed this but my other half had surgery so I popped one for fun)
muscle relaxers
Valium
Vicodin
adderall
so my doc told me to up adderal dosage to 20mg twice a day. A cousin tells me he has same issue and needed way more
I don’t take pills for fun, I have no tolerance built to anything. I’m wondering if this issue is why my alcoholic grandfather was able to live until mid 80s despite starting screwdrivers at 530am for 50 years

The plural of anecdote is not data
I am not sure there is an all encompassing name, however it is well known that people metabolize drugs at different rates. It likely explains why some people have severe side effects from the same medications that do not touch other people. The field is pharmacogenomics and there is some testing available. I think the most validated medications are psychiatric (antidepressants) but it is expanding and I expect it will be fairly routine testing in the future, especially with multiple failed drug trials.
For now, most of the medicine we practice is in the stone age, where we try a drug, that doesn't work, and we then try another. It is frustrating for patient and doctor but unfortunately that is where the state of the field is a lot of the time. I do not utilize pharmacogenomics often as it is not covered by insurance and I only have a few medications to treat the things I see, but I am hopeful that changes in the future.
I am not a PCP, but when I do start an antidepressant, I ask if family members have taken any and had good/bad responses as a quick/dirty way to try to increase my rate of success with the first med.

Cool, thanks! Good to know this may not be that uncommon.
my worry has always been telling a doctor that I need a stronger dose or different med and sounding like a junkie who has built up a tolerance. But I really don’t even drink so I think this Dr in particular will understand

60mg of adderall didn’t do a thing so now we’re trying a high dose of Ritalin
doc thinks enzyme tests can be inaccurate but the pharmacist today said she has same issue and got a test done at her pcp and found out which enzyme she’s missing, and can proactively avoid drugs that will be an issue

A common occurrence for psych meds.

My list so far is all opiates, muscle relaxers, Xanax, Valium, adderall and apparently now spironalactone as I had to be bumped up to the maximum daily dosage

The OROS and OROS-like mechanisms are the gold standard in my book for any kind of ER med. It's the only one that doesn't entirely rely on how fast a tablet dissolves.
I can relate to the struggle of finding the right dosage and formulation that works for you. It’s great that your PCP is looking for a better option with the Vyvanse. The OROS mechanism is interesting; I agree it’s a solid approach for extended release. If you're considering alternatives or supplements to support your focus, Canadian Pharmacy has a range of options that might help you manage your symptoms more effectively.

Of course you struggle. Methylphenidate is metabolized in the liver. You don't have one.
