Well your entitled to your opinion. If a neuro makes a misdiagnosis and then prescribes L dopa which decreases the bodies capacity to produce L dopa and can have side effects like PD his mis diagnosis becomes self fulfilling.

Tell me that has NEVER happened.

the injury to an extremity theory causing pd symptoms is hokus pokus, think how many high school atheletes suffer ankle sprains and don't get pd. regardless, you'll need to treat the symptoms some way as they progress. going to someone to massage your foot ain't going to help.

think what you want. l-dopa works well for me, i've tried everything else with no beneficial affect.
