How true, Kathleen!! My neurologist is doing research on biomarkers. I guess it should be done, but after 16 years PD I'd rather see some cure-oriented research. Hopefully, we'll get something soon, but I'm not holding my breath. -----Original Message----- From: Kathleen Cochran Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2012 4:33 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Biomarkers for PD Identified From the article: "“Parkinson’s disease is second most common neurodegenerative disease among older adults and there is widespread recognition that early detection would allow treatment that could slow its progression,” said Robert Nagele, PhD, a professor of medicine at UMDNJ-SOM and the founder of Durin Technologies, Inc." And what would those progression-slowing treatments be, pray tell? One thing about an accurate test for PD: it allows insurers to know even better that they don't want you. Those who suspect they have PD should carefully think over their insurance needs and seek to get their insurance in place before a diagnosis of PD is established.
