More About billfla28

After being diagnosed with Parkinsons disease I joined a couple of online support groups where I met some of the nicest around. As months went by and I was making more freinds witth PD it was starting to seem my disease was progessing faster than patients that had this for years. After alot of research I was pretty sure I had MSA back in june as it was apparent i was getting nothing from the sinemet. My MDS specialist increased my sinement by what seemed to me an incredible amount This did nothing for me and I beleive it made the pain in my leg from dystonia much worse among other things. So I have gone back to the DR. that gave me a second opinion and after all the symptoms I had developed since the last time I saw him and the poor response to sinemet. He is now treating me for MSA.
