    What great fun catching up after being gone for 10 days!! =20
    Henry mentioned natural methods to lower cholesterol.  I talked to a =
lady yesterday whose husband finally had good results by following the =
Blood Type Diet.  I've never read the book, but have listened to some =
tapes.  Might be worth a try. =20
    CD has been making a lot of news on the list.  My husband, Don, has =
never had that problem.  He always just pretends he doesn't have PD. He =
has a great attitude (better than I do). I think the beginning of his =
problem was from stress when during the years of high interest we had to =
file Chapter 11 on our ranch.  All came out ok, but was an extremely =
stressful time in our life.
    On the 10th he had an appointment at KU with Dr. Koller.  The day =
before Mary Rack and her husband took us to lunch and showed us how to =
get to the Center.  Thanks again Mary, it was great meeting you and =
Dave, the lunch was great.  We made it there and back to the airport =
without a glinch.  The reason we were at Kansas City was that Don is on =
the board of the American Simmental Board that had a meeting there and =
attended the Kansas Royal Cattle Show.  The exam at KU was not as =
complete as the ones we have had at the Mayo Clinic.  Dr. Koller mainly =
just asked questions. Since Don had taken his CR at 2:00 and the =
appointment was at 3:00 he was feeling really good, therefore I  think =
the Doctor thought he is in better shape than he really is.  Decided it =
was time to start a dopamine agonist.  Seemed to favor the old "tried =
and true" meds, but made us make the decision on what to try.  He did =
not recommend Mirapex, saying too many people have had to stop taking =
it.  We chose to try Requip.  This is Don's third day.  Will keep you =
posted as to the outcome.
