The most important thing a newly diagnosed Parkinson's patient can do is to find a support group. I know that it can be hard to see how PD affect those who suffer long term disease, but people in a support group generally know where the best movement disorder specialists practice. It is the one regret I have when I look back on my husband's PD journey (which lasted 28 years). We wasted years looking for the 'right' neurologist when that fellow practiced right under our noses not more than 15 miles away. My husband suffered unnecessarily because he was afraid to go to a support group. -------- God bless Mary Ann Ryan (CG Jamie 68/28 with PD, died 11/20/07) www.bentwillowfarm.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
