Gina-- I have to wonder if the paranoia and hallucinations you mention are
new side effects, or just getting worse? As you know, both those are
usually due to
medication--perhaps too much--when you see the new doc be sure to tell him
about that part of it. Peter had a terrible paranoid episode last summer
that put him in hospital and in need of home health care for 6 weeks after
he got home--it was because his neuro started him on the then-new Mirapex,
and didn't cut back on his Sinemet, and he got an overload. Pretty scary!
We got off Mirapex in a hurry, and he's done OK on Requip--but last week
began to have hallucinations (very mild) again, and it seems to have been
due to a new drug,Detrol, for overactive bladder problems. We've stopped it
now, and he's better. So Gina, watch the meds carefully--I don't know what
you take, but they can cause problems as well as cure them!
