        Saw Dr. John Nutt last Monday at Oregon Medical School's Movement
Disorder Clinic. They gave Gordon a good physical, went through the usual
history, etc, etc. The rcommendations wee: take another Amantadine after
lunch and take a Tums, yes Tums, with each dose of Sinemet as Tums enhances
Simenet and if anyone ever heard that before in this group, you failed to
mention it!!!!        So back we came to Mt. Shasta and it works..His
afternoons are definitely better, walks better. Remember Gordon had had
spectacul results from thalomotomies and it was our regular doctor who
suggested a throrough evaluation of meds as
gord has taken the same for so long. Since last surgery, May 8, he seems to
need half as much Sinemet. His fatigue level is improving, also. It is all
so amazing..Incidentally, a dear friend who suffers arom artherities(Sp) has
been told not to take Tums with her prescriptions.
