Hello List members. I have a request. Please can you help me. I need to collect and collate information from those of you who have had or have hallucinations, and from those who have cared for PWP with hallucinations. I have some Carer friends who knew nothing about PD medication-induced hallucinations until they were sadly "baptised by fire". They would benefit by hearing your stories about what your hallucinations, and any other forms of psychiatric manifestations, were like, and how you overcame them, or how you survived to tell the story! How did you first become aware of the fact that you were hallucinating? I am also interested in how the medical profession handled your situation. For example, did your GP know how to treat you? Did your neurologist know what to do? Did you see a psychiatrist? Did your neurologist call in the help of a psychiatrist? Were you hospitalised? Were you taken off anti-parkinson's medication, etc, etc. I would be most grateful for your responses, and will use them with integrity and wisdom, removing your names of course. If you don't want to share these stories with the List, please email me at: [log in to unmask] Most sincerely Joy Graham (CG Bob, 57, 8yrs - who is not hallucinating!)
