Dear Greg, Thanks for the suggestion, but I did look into the possibility for pallidotomy several years ago and decided it was not for me. It is just too risky. I know too many PWP who had it done and now are in bad shape. I took the time to go first to Loma Linda, then to Atlanta to Emory, and finally decided to do a drug trial instead. If I had opted fpr the surgery, however, Emory U. would have been my choice. I felt much more comfortable there than at Loma Linda. I remain convinced that drug therapy is the answer for me. I am on my third drug study now. Still hoping to hear from any other "hoppers" out there. It's a major part of my dyskinesia, though it is not as annoying as that awful tremor I had for better than 15 years that suddenly disappeared for no apparent reason last year. Thanks List Serv. for being there.
