Dear List Members

I recently became a member of this group and would like to introduce
myself. My name is Dalia, and I am too a sufferor of PD. My father has
had it for 15 years and currently he is in real bad shape. Unfortunately
we live in a country that lacks neurologists specialised in PD. We all
here at home are going through the toughest times of our lives seeing
dad go from bad to worse. That is why I would like to thank all of you
for sharing your experiences and making me less alone. I look forward to
learning from all of you and hope to help my father through your
participations and postings.

I had a few questionsthat maybe somone could find me answers to:

1. Father suffers from massive attacks of dyskinesia's. I kind of feel
that he is suffering from the side effects of siniment more than the
disease it self. He takes  25/100 standard sinemnt  twice a day.one at
12 pm and 1 at 6 pm. after 2 hrs of the intake he gets the dyskinesias
and they lest for sometimes 2 hrs. Any suggestions on what could be done
to reduce the dyskinesias?

2. Dad is also anerexic. What vitamin supplements should he be taking
that do not interfere with the medication?



I would really appreciate your input.

May god bless you all


Dalia
