Hello,

Was wondering if anyone here is up on Dr. Ted Dawson, Director of the Movement Disorders Center Leanaard and Madlyn Abramson Professorin Neurodegenerative Diseases. He works out of John Hopkins, and many advances have stemmed from Dr. Dawson's identification of the molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration. He pioneered the role of nitric oxide in neuronal injury in stroke and excitotoxicity and elucidated the molecular mechanisms by which nitric oxide and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase kills neurons.

Nitric Oxide (aka laughing gas) was used by my father on a regular basis to knock me out to abuse me. Are there any PD patients who had it administered in the dentist office?
