HELLO!

I like my neurologist alot. He seems to be very intelligent, and interested in my symptoms. However, I have noticed since seeing him that he is often trying to get me enrolled in one of his studies of possibly helpful drugs for PD and actually, initially, I was in one of his studies when I first saw him. I have often asked him about treatments I've read about on the PD website here, and he often is negative about things like Dextromathoraphan, and Resagilene,simply saying, "they don't work" Recently, I was told that MDs receive 5,000 to 10,000 dollars for every research patient they get. It scares me to think I'm being led into a particular research project because it "may" help me and others, AND, it helps the doc's finances too. I'm thinking of switching docs, but am not sure, any advice is very appreciated! Has anyone else had an md who rejected ideas you brought to them? Maybe seeing a dr who does research and sees patients who aren't involved in the research side is not a good idea? Thanks Floridagal
