Maryse, I would sure take PD meds if they helped, like Sinemet did the first time I took it.. I just can't do much and have to drag my body around. I'm very slow getting my meals. I'm, well, miserable. Har, har. Have double vision so I can't see to read, micrographia makes writing, filing, getting organized, etc. very painful, talking is like strangling as is choking on my own spit. Maybe this is why I'm such a grouch and a Bush-basher At least DBSs helped my killjoy tremors and it was the only thing that did. I don't think I could have stood them. My former CG says I am calmer since brain surgeries. I sleep OK with one each benedryl, inderal, cholorazepate and Advil. Only have moderately bad dreams, no nightmares. Inderal seems to keep my labile high BP down w/out hypostatic hypotension, don't feel I need tranquilizer in daytime. I do have hiatal hernia and GERD, choking increased when I stopped Prilosec as over counter kind says you should after 2 week treatment, but I'm trying it again to relieve acid reflux and choking, coughing. I can't find substitutes for all I can't do. What do you do w/out voice, hands, feet? Being "ON" would sure be great. I think my mind is still sharp, so I don't want any hallucinations from drugs that don't work. OFF< Ray PS - prune juice every day and Ginseng every 2 to 3 days help constipation, yippee!!! Think Ginseng gives me more energy to just make myself do things. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
