It occurred to me regarding your auntie ... some areas of Australia are served by Parkinson's nurses. Are they available in your area? If auntie won't go to another doctor, she might agree to be seen by a Parkinson's nurse to have her doses tweaked a bit. Alternatively, her general practitioner could try to obtain a phone consult from a neuro regarding that dosing ... if he would mention to the neuro that auntie takes one tab in the morning and two at night and that she shakes after her AM dose, the neuro may be able to guide him quickly to a more tried-and-true dosing pattern. I hope that she does well, Brian, and that she appreciates your kind concern.
