I have been thinking about my response to Becky's questions and realized
I had not answered them completely. I had not included under 'chemicals
previously exposed to' the (to me) unkown chemicals involved in
anaesthesia. At ages 5 and 12, ether was used for surgeries. Delivering
my first two babies, it was 'spinal block'; for the third and fourth
babies it was some kind of gas; fifth baby it was an 'epidural'. For
various surgeries, I was given a 'general anaesthetic'. I hope these
additional data are useful to you, Becky. Thank you for your interest in
Parkinson's. Barb
