-- [ From: Donna Kipp * EMC.Ver #2.5.02 ] -- This disease is so difficult to manage because there are so many variables. It seems difficult to believe but I am starting to think maybe there may be a corelation between my WIld Yam cream (Natural Estrogen) and my worsening symptoms. Several years ago I tried HRT and stopped because it made my PD symptoms worse. I recently tried Wild Yam Cream and shortly afterward had an upward adjustment in my Sinemet dosage. Well I ran out and just didn't get to replace it and then the dyskinesis started. The pieces are starting to fit together. The good news is I am feeling better now. Two good days!! I want to thank everyone again for their help, Particularly Janet who urged me to delve a little deeper into the cause of my problems....Donna ------- FORWARD, End of original message -------
