Steve, it is good to hear about your good checkup. Except for my morning "kickstart" of a half 25/100 regular (generic)sinemet, i depend on 2 50/200 (also generic) CR for the rest of my daily carbi/levo needs. That, along with amantadine, CoQ10 and nightly low-dose DM keep me ginning along.
Also, has it occurred to you, Steve, to try to get someone on the local cooking scene ( newspaper, TV, etc.) to promote recipies using fresh conch? Is its texture and taste suitable for soups, stews or chowder? Just a thought.
Hope everyone has a good week.

Hi Robert..Its feels great to finally get this thing under control, and other than some fatigue and occasional toe curling, Im doing fine..Im still religiously taking the DM as well

Conch is a very popular dish in this neck of the woods..They make a salad out of it, and is available in every restaurant, supermarket, seafood store, and deli..The problem with the market/price to fishermen is the cheaper foreign product coming in from South America..The fishermen get screwed again!..As usual..

And what happened is a couple of years ago when the price shot up to $1.40 per lb everyone and his brother were going conch fishing..Then human nature took over and some guys decided that they wanted it all for themselves and asked the state to impose ridiculous regulations on the fishery in hopes of pushing people out..Then this year the price went down to .70 cents per lb and Im one of the few guys still fishing for conch, but the new conch regulations are still in the process of being promulgated..Nothing new..
