Susan, I am sorry I deleted your original message by mistake. I want to share part of my story with you, in hopes that it can help your mother. I have parkinson's, I did not go to the doctor the first year and a half that I had it. Mostly because I moved my mother in with me after she was on a ventilator, and taking care of my aunt who had a stroke. I did not recognize all these things that were happening to me were all part of the same disease. When I went to the Nero, the following things were happening: 1. Walking slow, felt like my feet were sticking to the floor. 2. Severe constipation. 3. The right side of my body tremoring bad. 4. Memory problems. 5. Balance problems, I was falling a lot. The doctor put me on Sinemet, Tasmar, Pozac, turns out the memory problems was caused by depression and not sleeping. Last week I ran out of medicine, and all these things came back. Please consider getting your mother to another doctor. We will be praying for you and your mother. Patricia Hewitt [log in to unmask]
