Re: Welcome and psychosis
Eddie: your fathers paranoia is interesting to me as made my family suffer from this for almost three years. ( It was slow in developing so it didnt really surface until it was almost to late) My family, all my friends and especially my husband were targets.. Thankfully, they all(especially my husband) stuck with me and through my pd doc I went for therapy with a man who was familiar with pd and who worked with my doc to alter my meds. It seems that I O.D.'d on BROMOCRIPTINE (PARLODEL) after taking it for some years but my doc was sure of its benefits to me and together they reduced my dosage and I started on the anti psychotic drug CLOZAPINE (CLOZARIL) which CURED my problem. This is a very closely monitored medicine which requires me to get a blood test EVERY week in order to renue. I THANK MY FAMILY FOR MAKING ME GO TO THERAPY AND I THANK MY DOCS FOR THEIR PATIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE. By the way...wat is gamma laser THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HEAR OF IT. ??? Good luck to any other pd'ers who shared or ar sharing my experience. Joyce T Joyce44@xxxxxxx
