Hi. I do not have any info on LDN and Parkinsons, but wanted to ask

if you had heard of the new surgery they are doing on Parkinsons

patients with amazing results? I saw this on the news while in

Canada, and unfortunately did not hear the whole thing to know where

this surgery was available, but I did hear enough to know that it is

an out patient procedure involving drilling a small hole into the

brain to " burn " out the Parkinson's symptoms. The results are

amazing, and immediate. You are very right in that Parkinson's is

slow progressing, and I understand your skepticism. But this surgery

might be worth checking into. They made it sound very simple and

even more importantly, very successful! Take care!

Hi Kim,

When I was in hospital in Queen Square in London earlier this year, there were a couple of people with Parkinson's who had an op similar to what you describe. They had some drilling in the back of the skull and some probes inserted which were then controlled by units mounted on their chests which in turn could be operated by had held remotes. One man, who was in his 70's came in a wheelchair and walked with some help a week later. I'm afraid that's the extent of the info I have but I hope it helps.

Mike.
