I was wondering, perhaps this is a bad time to bring it up (but here I go anyways) if we might have a use for subgroups. We could have a chat/humor/poetry group; parkinsons discussion only serious issues, a young onset group, a Parkinson's singles group (for pd'rs like me single and wishing they weren't) There could be a group that just discusses (not flames) Parkinson's awareness and publicity. An individual could subscribe to some all or none, and still continue in the main group. What's everybody think? Couple more questions/comments. Has anyone else developed a gambling problem after a Pallidotomy? I was hardly off the table and I wanted to hit the casino. Or has anyone else found themselves more obsessive and compulsive? Does there exist some sort of collection of Parkinson achievements and noteworthy events. Just the dates and details, for example when a pd'r from our group is featured on the news. Asort of PDhall of fame? next ? there was a bunch of harringtons mentioned in the summary, I wonder if they're any relations of mine, I'm originaly from the Soo, Sault Ste Marie. Last comment, that new drug, I've lost it's name somewhere in my empty head, T something , and liver damage... I sure hope it turns out ok, I'm seeing a neurologist in two weeeks and I had really hoped to use that drug instead of Parlodel (Bromocriptine) of which I'm taking 70 mg a day. I know, all the problems I'm having -lower back pain, extreme swelling of feet and legs, confusion/memory loss. I'm presently taking massive aounts of sinemet as well, which I'd reallly like to decrease. Right now i"m taking 12 different pills I think ^60 + a day. Sure hope that nurologist is ready for me, I've been waiting 3 months... Bill (:o))
