Hello, My name is Carol Brow and I live in northern Michigan (the little finger). I am very interested in Parkinson because I am my mother's caregiver who was probable aflicted for many years but only recently diagnosed. She suffered a broken hip two years ago and was introduced to craniosacral therapy which helped clear up a lot of the confusion she exhibited as well as sleeplessness and frequent nocturnal urination. Her balance also improved. Now that she has been diagnosed we are trying nutrient supplements as well as dietary factors to stimulate her system. Nutrients: calcium 1,500 mg daily magnesium 750 mg GABA 500 mg Lecithin 3 capsules L-Glutamic acid 500 mg L-Tyrosine 500 mg Vitamin B complex 100 mg three times a day Vitamin B6 1000 mg Vitamine C 6 to 8 grams per day Bioflavinoids 1000 mg Vitamin E 800 mg Evening Primrose 500 mg Gerovital H-3 Multidigestive enzymes Brewers Yeast Has or is anyone else using such methods either alone or in combination with medication? I've learned so much from reading your postings over the last two weeks since I signed on. Carol Brow Lake Leelanau, Michigan [log in to unmask]
