Matthew,

That's really what I wanted to say or was trying to convey last night, but since I am nowhere near being a doctor.... Had she shown more serious signs of the Neuro Malignant Syndrome like rigidity and fever, I would have been a little more obnoxious about it Anyway, thank you for bothering her doctors on a holiday...

Essentially, I went through the same thing but over the course of a few weeks rather than days. You should notice more of an improvement when she gets levodopa back in her system; mainly because decline was so prominent.

Keep us posted!

Laura
