below is cc of email sent to my new neuro. I had surgery Aug 7 to replace my NS batteries; one had died and I was a mess. From: Rayilyn Brown Sent: Monday, August 17, 2015 6:48 PM To: Ming-Jai Liu Cc: Shirley S Knox Subject: Parkinson's Treatment thanks for the interesting book and the time you spent programming me Thursday. altho I’m still very tired I have less pain and dystonia, am slowly resuming my former low level of functioning. the book: re “timing”, unlike most Parkies have never found it to be critical as I don’t have on/off experience with meds. years ago after my first 1/2 dose of Sinemet I thought “this is going to be great” I felt “normal”, but never again. re “anxiety”” when I had ovarian cancer treatment I developed panic attacks due to chemo and carried valium with me for a bit in case. 1/2 a pill seems to help now when I go to doc appts now as I don’t have panic attacks or agoraphobia anymore, but my whole body gets like a clenched fist re “exercise” it definitely helps, for past 3 years have done up to 2 hours daily of motorized cycling. re “optogenetics”- sounds interesting. I think “Love and light” on people, animals and problems, so the idea of light as a treatment is fascinating to me! thanks again, and love and light on you, your patients and practice Dr. Liu.
