Charles Barasch: You are fortunate in having such an empathy with your neurologist. I also attribute my response to therapy to my Doctor's ability to listen and evaluate what his patients report or otherwise reveal via signs/symptoms.. However, such a relationship requires a corresponding complete honesty on the Patient's part to be 100% effective. Our Listserv opens up many facets of the whole PD world out there .We learn to evaluate, reject or accept. [log in to unmask] (Mary Manfredi)
