i liked it. EPOGEN is a drug used to increase red blood count for dialysis patients (kidney failure). I also know that Ferrelicit, or iron supplements, are usually prescribed to go with epogen. Remember, we learned bree was taking iron pills WAY back in the "in the park" video in september. the injections bree was getting (remember the bandages) could have been epogen. www.epogen.com/pdf/epogen_ppi.pdf

Drug Indications: While on the run, Bree became increasingly bitchy, and began to display some very clear symptoms of Schizophrenia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizophrenia) - taking her P-Monkey to the movies, putting a band-aid on Owen and - OMG- talking to and nuzzling that god-damned monkey in the park...her anger and frustration seemed to peek in the garage when DB said he was done... and then - first vid:
at Joan-us' house: locked in a room by herself, she is clearly very weepy and out of sorts; telling Daniel there is nothing to go back to, that there life before is gone.
- next vid:
in Jonus's "Den" seeming much happier and asking DB to join her once again
- next vid:
now se is even happier, gleeful, talking freely about things - things she has never spoken about before -and chasing leads on the phone
- next vid:
she is in the yard with Joan-us, skateboarding and acting the same young home-schooled girl we once knew and later back on-line chatting to Daniel
Apparently those drugs are not inidcated in schizophrenic episodes but it sure as shit seems like she has been up and down and it aint just her "cycle"

Promises fulfilled? Have we begun to tie up loose ends and dangling plot threads? Wow...Happy Winter Solstice! It IS going to be a long night. Thanks for connecting the dots Milo...pretty cool.
Groovy observations, Slainte.

[/li][li]next vid: now she is even happier, gleeful, talking freely about things - things she has never spoken about before -and chasing leads on the phone[/quote] Talk about a crazy up and down cycle, just watch the original fleeing onto the road episode from Nov. 9 or so. Bree just saw her parents kidnapped, is forced to flee to hear life... and then a couple hours later being driven in the car she's like "Daniel I'm booooooooooooored." Suddenly it's all a game again. Crazy girl. She is no longer the Rory Gilmore of youtube that's for sure. And Miles's medical knowledge sure is showing here. A little too much, I don't like knowing exactly where the plot elements are coming from

Hye, the old agage is "Write about what you know." Miles knows medicine. Perhaps this is his comfort zone and he can strike a chord with it... Let's see where he is going with this, I think it has the potential to be kinda interesting. Remember the appearance of Bree's dad with the white lab coat? At least this makes sense. At this point I wouldn't care if they all got picked up by that pesky helicopter and flown to Disneyland for lunch with Mickey Mouse. As long as they start tying up all those loose plot ends, red herrings, mountains of "clues", multitudes of continuity issues, egregious Character Inconsistencies and have the narrative Start Making Sense I would be happy. ActionDaniel is Back . Yay!

i just perused the forum thread for any other revelations. ---one poster notes that epogen is fairly expensive (estimates $10K a year for a dialysis patient), which is true. ---another poster says that epogen also gets used by athletes to improve their performance. that is called EPO doping-- wikipedia adds that EPO can also be prescribed in advance of surgery where high blood loss is expected. --- the numbers inside the warehouse shown in the video: 220 219 195. No real developments on what they may be: phone number, IP address, longitudes, who knows ... Added though: how, if at all, does any of this tie back to all the Denederah / Hathor egyptian stuff?

ok get this...I suffer from hemochromotosis - a high level of iron in hte blodd - treatment is pretty much limited to phlebotomy (draining the blood) until things even out.
Side effect? Anemia
I would suspect that they have been taking too much blood from Bree becasue of the gauze on her shoulder, except that they always draw blood form an artery (arm/ankle).
Probablyh nothing, but at least I get to share my hypchondria!
Cheers everyone....."Christmas is coming and the goose is getting fat. Please put a penny in the old mans hat"

Any connections between the use of EPO and the drugs he found at Bree's home? Cerebyx and Zosyn were the ones found there I believe. I have a friend who is a Pharm. D. and I will shoot him an email this pm. THAT ought to be an interesting preamble I will have to compose before asking the question .

CG...apparently this drug Daniel discovered is very useful in "pumping up" before a diffiult task.
Some really cool stuff in this vid

I’m not sure, are we supposed to be looking for clues in real life again? People use to spend a lot of time trying to figure out Bree’s religion and then we were all told that it is a completely fictional one and doesn’t exist outside of the Breeniverse and more or less to stop talking about LG in relationship to real life religions.
I have gotten the feeling that all of the ‘clues’ are like this (like that story Daniel found on the internet, about Crowley taking the little girl or something, that never happened and no one else can find on the internet) and only make sense within the Breeniverse. That is why I have lost interest investigating, you can’t solve the mystery because we are never given enough clues and we can’t research outside of the videos themselves. Most frustratingly is that even if we are ahead of the characters we can’t tell them this and help progress the plot as an audience (you know, interact with them).
When people found Bree’s dad’s secret message, then Bree’s next video should have acknowledge that and jumped right to the plot point where she goes to ‘the place’, even if they hadn’t planned on doing that out for a couple weeks.

Hi hi! If someone has answered this already, then please forgive me as I am still getting used to your board.
There is definitely a connection between epogen and the cerebyx, in my opinion. Epogen can cause seizures as a side effect, so I think cerebyx was in the house as a precautionary measure to ward off any seizures that may occur as a result of injecting the epogen. Apparently, doctors track this stuff because it is so expensive. Like actual patients, dosages, and other details.
