Hi Nigel,

I cannot ignore this possibility. All told I have had 4 neurologists diagnose me with PD, yet none will refer me for a Datscan as they are too expensive and don't provide sufficient additional insight. Because of turnover at a major university hospital, I recently was assigned a new MDS, and I have not discussed Dascan with her.
