With my mother Joyce's (69/1) recent SND diagnosis for which there are not many effective drugs, I am looking into alternatives. In addition to having PD, my mother's stratium has degenerated and isn't accepting the dopamine. So even if she gets dopamine, it doesn't much matter. That's why I am wondering about something like hypnosis. I think I remember reading in a Lewis Thomas book about some guy who cured himself of warts through hypnosis. Has anyone ever tried to get the brain to work normally through hypnosis? Debbie White [log in to unmask]
