Hi, my name is Dorothy. My husband, Milo, is my computer operator. I m 60+ and
was diagnosed PD about 8 years ago although I have had mild symptoms for over 25
years. I am currently on Sinemet and Sinemet CR, Eldepryl, Lorazepam, Surmontil
and Benadryl. I also take vitamins C, E, and D.
I found my symptoms greatly improved from trying some suggestions regarding diet
from PD literature. I take no protein in AM and lunch. For the evening meal I
eat beans, soy products, and other vegetable protein. I m now on a totally
vegetarian diet.
My dyskinesia has become severe. Much fatigue but no constipation. Hot weather
bothers me, does it bother you?
My neurologist now thinks I am a good candidate for a pallidomoty. I m
apprehensive about this & would like to know more about it before proceeding.
What pre-testing is done?
What benefits can I expect?
More stamina? Less medications?
Does anyone know of a comprehensive source of information on pallidomoty?
Should I give NADH a try before I consider surgery?
I ve been reading the list postings for several weeks and have really enjoyed
it, including Lynda s trip to Holland.
Dorothy
