Hello to all!!! My dad suffers from PD since 1992. He is 66 years old living in Quebec and his actual medication is: prolopa, artan, and eldepryl. At the moment, he experiences a lot of confusion, there is a slight improvement over his shaking but his muscles are still very stiff. All in all, there is not much quality of living. I've recently heard a little bit about the experimental treatment of pallidotomy as a possible (though temporary) solution for PD sufferers. I *really* would like to know more about the treatment, his availibility in the Province of Quebec or elsewhere, or any information about other types of treatment that could give him some hope even on a short period of time. I will be eagerly looking for your messages and I thank you all. Regards Dominique Philibert [log in to unmask]
