Thanks reverett , Ron and ashleyk. Ron, I've read your posts in the first braintalk forum regarding curcumin. Is it still effective for you?

ashleyk, my father does seem to have progressed rapidly, particularly since he started sinemet. He's actually taking less sinemet now that he was 3 months ago, since he switched neuros. The first neuro had told him to increase his sinemet every time his symptoms got a little worse so by 3 months ago he was taking 2 25/100s 4 times a day, sometimes 5 times. His symptoms had improved but he was high as a kite most of the time - no dyskinesias yet but that was certainly down the road at that rate. His new neuro was shocked at the amount and cut him back to the present level. The withdrawal period was difficult, to say the least. I will talk about that experience in another post.

I'm going to start him on the curcumin but would still like to know if others had experience with that supplement.
