Greetings. My father has been diagnosed with PD for some time, but had few serious problems until suffering a seizure this past week. Now, his sentemet has been increased significantly and he still is unable to walk or do other daily functions by himself, a serious decline in status. He is being recommended for nursing home care rather than a rehab facility in South Carolina. My question: do seizures (this one was 7 1/2 years after a stroke) have this effect of significantly activating PD? I realize this is not a medical list, but as a listowner myself, hope that I might get some helpful offerings from any who have had similar experiences. TIA. Bill William D.
