Linda, I think that it would be difficult to have a medical professional monitor this list because PD effects us in so many different ways and probably no two of us in the same way. In addition there seems to be a substantial difference of opinion among the pros on a lot of PD meds and treatments. I think Dr. Leiberman's "Ask the Doctor" is a tremendous asset to this list because of the large number of PD patients he has treated. I am sure I am prejudiced because I used to be a patient of his (until he joined NPF and moved from Phoenix ). There are also several other Doctors who are members of this list and they do a pretty good job of keep us from getting too far off of the normally accepted path, without being formally monitored.
