I just spoke with a friend who is not levadopa responsive but exhibits classic idiopathic parkinsons sx....she went to an MDS at Oregon Health Sciences University (after seeing several other docs) and he is stumped- so he is recommending DBS but when she hesitated he responded with pressure saying that her doubt was not good and she should act quickly otherwise medicare might not approve her. I smell a rotten powerplay there. ) Now she is seeing a naturopath in Seattle that charges $200/half hour for a phone consult!!! The more they don't know....the more expensive it gets...... MD
