I have tried acupuncture 1 1/2 years ago.The lady who treated me was a nurse and her husband a neurologist, and they had a very close co-operation. Before I started the treatments and after 3 times Mr. Andersen examined me and he was so fair to tell me to stop, because in my case it wouldn`t help. One the other hand one of our older PWP had benefit of the treatments, and it was great, because she tolerated absolutely nothing of the med. e.g. Madopar or Sinemet. It`s so dfifficult to advise, because we suffering of PD, but it doesn`t harme to try. Best regards Sonia Nielsen NEVER GIVE UP
