That's very good to know. i hope they don't waste 5 or more years trying to prove it or correct it.....sounds like they already have some. I take their word for it.

Default That's what I thought
so needless to say, we will be showing a copy of this article to our neuro next visit...the question I have is, if one weans off an anticholnergic, can any damage that may have occurred be undone????
