Dear gwc,
Please let us know what "dolphime" is. I have googled the term, and get no
hits. Is this a trade name for a drug that is not used in the US?

Apparently there are a lot of DR's who still think that you should save
carb/levo treatment for later, theory bring that there are just so many doses
before the med is no longer effective. My opinion is that this is hog wash and
deprives the patent of quality of life. I agree, that as the Parkinson's goes
on, the ever lower carb/levo production of the body makes it much more
difficult to properly time the med's. I think that it was Brian Collins of England
who proved that doses as often as every fifteen minutes could work. this was
before extended release and DA's
I have had Parkinson's 20 years now and, as the local expert {definition:
has been drip under pressure}, I see a stream of people who are getting bad
doctoring and bad advice from their neurologist.
These patients often turn out to be the kind of people who were taught to
give automatic trust to their Dr. They need to love their Dr. I try to figure
out who is a coward and who is brave. No use to make cowards afraid. Save
your talk for those who want to participate in their treatment.
I am so opinionated and ornery that I have found it best to lurk most of the
time. But I met a 82 year old man today who is not being treated. His
wife loves their Dr. Since he can't drive, because of his eyes ,he goes where
he is taken. I would like to see what 3 or 4 10/100 extended release tablets
would so for him. My goodness, the man is 82, give him his med's.
