Guest guest Posted July 14, 1998 Report Share Posted July 14, 1998 Hi Everyone, First off, I am a fifth grade teacher with a Teddy in my class, and after reading your letter, Andy, I vow to try harder with him, and more importantly, to try something different, as what I have been doing hasn't been working very well. Less irritation, and more compassion for starters. Secondly, in response to Pamela " s question about sleep studies, my neurologist started me on sinemet, and said a sleep study would be required if it didn't help. I like this reasoning, because I think there is a lot of unnecessary testing going on, especially when insurance is there to pick up the tab. I have better things to do than spend time being diagnosed for something I already know I have. The sinemet did work for quite a while, but due to daytime rebound, I switched to mirapex, which is probably as close to a cure as I'll ever see in my lifetime. Pamela, you are wonderful to research this for your patients, as we are all kind of medical " teddies " . Lastly, I can't access the picture page anymore. Jodi, is there a new address for this? I love connecting all the names and personalities with the corresponding faces! ne, 58, Lawrenceville,NJ ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
