Just my .02 cents

GregD,
Nice to hear from you,
You might be right in you assumption, but for one thing that I might not of mentioned in my post, I don't have any of the Parkinson's symptoms that are associated with this disease. It weird. For the last 7 years I suffered with Parkinson's and it's symptoms and took the appropriate medicine to help me function as normal as possible. Now, even as I cut down my Sinemet, I don't seize up, nor so I Twitch,nor shake. The only effect I get is my breathing gets shallower and quick. Like I said "Weird or What"?
I know people won't believe me, but I think it may have to do with supplements that I've trying or/and a combination of both the Supplements and the Drugs. Time will tell.
Any way, one step at a time and we'll see how things turn out, I'll keep this forum advised if you want me to.
Keep well.
Claude
