Maryse,
In reference to Jim's post and question "why don't Parkinsonians just take
GABA that you can buy over the counter for sleep" ?  Two types of GABA A &B,
good idea to ask Doc how to incorporated it along with ones anti-park meds.

GABA, an amino acid, inhibits cells from overfiring, and 750 milligrams of it
can be taken to calm the body down much in the same way as valium, Librium,
and other tranquilizers without the fear of addiction.  GABA is being
recommended by wholistic health professionals in place of many drugs.  With
niacinamide and inosital, it prevents anxiety and stress-related messages
from reaching the motor centers of the brain by filling it's receptor site.
it functions as a neuron transmitter inn the central nervous system by
decreasing neuron activity.   -
