My fiance will go up and take care of her when i cant, and has helped out more with that lately.

I like the idea of taking my fiance with me to the RIGHT doctors' visits. So far im not sure if ive found one of those yet. Both neuros i saw basically wanted to do the wait and see approach without even running blood work. Went purely off EMG results and in-office neuro test.

I have an MRI reading today of my pelvis which hopefully reveals some kind of fixable abnormality, but im not getting my hopes up too much. I have another Neurologist appointment in 2 weeks with a new DR, that probably will be better since they are part of the University of Cincinnati neurology group.

Thanks,
Steve
"My mother has had parkinsons for 3 years now and about 5 months back it really hit her hard and she basically needs in home care."

My mother had it to. Im wondering what is the link between Parkinsons and
P/N? is there a connection and can it get passed down through the genes?
