Jane and Betty, thanks for answering. David's anemia has also been
checked and checked. His late brother had PD and also this anemia. David
is not yet on sinemet, but probably will be in the not so distant
future. I will just have to try steaks and see if that helps. When he
has to go on sinemet, we will have to deal with it somehow. this PD is a
family illness.( I mean everyone's family not just ours, which surely
appears to be genetic, his mother came from Russia and I doubt that
anyone in her family is left.)

Probably eating a steak won't cause us any harm, we just stopped eating
them years ago and now don't like them. We will just learn to eat them
and see what happens. The iron supplements have been useless.

If anyone else hs noted a connection, please let us know. Thanks Nita
