Greetings I've been receiving E-mail messages for about a week. I've been diagnosed with PD since 1987; had a thalamotomy for right side tremor/rigidity in 1991 (the neurosurgeon, Dr. Pat Kelly, now at NYU, said it was the most violent tremor he had ever seen, but then he probably says that to all his patients!); managing fairly well now on medications (sinemet CR; permax; prozac, and sinemet 25/100 (early in the day to get a "jump-start"); remain quite active (exercise daily, climb a nearby mountain a lot, fish, and remain executive director of the State Bar of Montana--a job requiring the patience of Job, which is good training for PD). Question: has anyone had experience with bee sting therapy? As Dave Berry would say, this is not a joke. There truly is an alternative treatment involving bee stings. While I'm a great believer in exploring all options, I rather not be a pioneer in this case.
