To Nancy Thankyou for your welcome and comment Nancy, I got it wrong My Mother's pain starts in her lower abdomen (not stomach) and seems to travel up her right side to her ear and eye, I appreciate that we can blame it on PD but it would be nice to get some relief from it. She also spits a lot I think that is due to PD and side affects. The sinamet does control her shaking. Regards Barry Dungey
