john,
me thinks you worry too much. pd'ers sincerely describing alt treatments here i would assume must know they are going to get some discussion and if the benefit was mostly due to placebo, the poster would get feedback from other sources besides this board, in other words, the placebo affect can't last forever and i've never seen any confirmation of a long lasting placebo affect in pd, which is not a mental disease.

basically, for a new poster that has not established themselves and i have no idea f they are just marketing something, i'm going to give an honest opinion.
