Whoops!!! Sorry I should have mentioned the weight. 1 pound with possibility of increase. Not a doctor - an occupational therapist courtesy of Medicare. One of these days I will update the Saga of Cecily - in Aug pneumonia - stroke in hospital - now oodles of therapists at home - soon on out-patient basis at local rehab center. Now a change in PD medication - phase out Tasmar + Sinemet and phase in Requip. using starter kit given by the neuro. Would appreciate any comments on this regimen Bob Anibal -----Original Message----- From: Nancy Burnham <[log in to unmask]> To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN <[log in to unmask]> Date: Wednesday, October 07, 1998 10:42 AM Subject: Re: back again >What was the weight the doctor gave her?
