Hi Vicky Lynn,
Thanks so much for your suggestions. We have a Parkinson's center here in Miami and I will call them tomorrow.
You asked if I tried nutritional supplements because I was afraid of meds. Yes I'm scared to death of med's. Dr. Sanje Gupta, in his interview with Michael J Fox on CNN, said that over time you can develop a tolerance for the meds and if you miss a dose the symptoms can come back, sometimes worse, although there is "some progress in trying to minimize tolerance." (whatever "some progress" means)
I am anxious to hear your thoughts on the above quote.
