Re: Better medical help?
Lori, my husband was diagnosed three years ago. He too went to doctors (neurologists) who prescribed medication and saw him yearly. We have moved now and live close to the Cleveland Clinic. The neurologist there who specializes in PD believes in seeing patients every few months. He believes that since the disease progresses differently in patients and fluctuates often in individual patients, he needs to see them regularly to help monitor medication and other needs. Makes sense to us! I agree that a support group would no doubt be a help to your mother. Vi
