Dear JoAnn, Pat, Emily, Debra and everybody who cared me in his/her thoughts, - thanks for your caring words. Hans was so helpful that he forwarded my help-message to dr. Abe L. and the doc was so kind to answer my questions by return of post. I've sent both Hans's and dr. Abe's hypothesis to my local doc, hope she is taking into account these theories and will discuss with my neuro. Though I take all the medicines given me getting some relief still I cannot breathe normally, nor am able to speak more than a few words and only with great difficulties. There was a question - the PARALYSES in my throat - not answered by anybody, but my doc was very anxious about it though she had no idea what was it and why was it, except if it could be a secondary, new symptom to my PD. So, any idea about THIS? I am not sure regarding the earlier posts but there is something in the far smoggy past, in my mind that some PWPs have a drain or tube in their throats. If it is so, why do they have these implants?
