Melinda Brown <[log in to unmask]> Melinda, were you looking for a family with PD? This info came in to me purely by coincidence after I had already deleted the request. The writer is located outside of Kansas City, KS. Let me know if you want me to ask her. "If you are asking about my personal concerns, it is the early diagnosis that I am most hopeful for, so my children and grandchildren might have a chance for an early diagnosis before so much of the dopamine is lost. In case it is inherited, my children and grandchildren have it on both sides of the family with my having it and my mother-in-law died with it and my grandfather was diagnosed with it. My other concern is the cost of the medicine where Medicare does not pay and most tie-in-plans do not." Barbara Blake-Krebs [log in to unmask]
