Welcome franny!

Thanks for telling your story about this....it was very helpful. I looked up succinylcholine and found that it is used in surgery with anesthesia and acts like acetylcholine. Acetycholine paralyzes certain muscles. There is a warning out about using it with children and with muscular conditions like some types of muscular dystrophy. The culprit?

I am assuming you had your children by surgery before you talked with your cousins in Canada? That's scary!

So insecticides made you sick. And you have a genetic mutation. I'm going to continue digging on this topic...can't help but wonder if it's related to your PD. You have helped to steer me in the right direction.
