what I have heard about going to Mayo
OK this is just what I have heard from reliable sources...
... the Mayo clinic is fine if you are 70+ years old
... not good if you are younger (young onsets should stay away)
... they avoid use of agonists and go straight to sinemet/ldopa
... they focus on prescribing sinemet/ldopa at the doses that make you feel as good as you can NOW, with no thought of consequences for the future (e.g. dyskinesias)
