By all means get your aunt to a movement disorders specialist, not just another neuro or gp! Please remember that the listmembers who have PD are generous with their information, sympathy, and support, but we (mostly) aren't licensed physicians. For specific advice about drugs or other treatment you should rely on a professional, who should see your patient in person. Cheers, Joe -- J. R.
