I have read the messages here for a couple of days now & You're certainly asking the right questions. I was partially at fault for holding up a diagnosis, because I was too embarrased to mention the incontinence toand constipation to my doctors. Meantime they wrote of a plethora of symptoms to depression (like sleep problems, fatique). It takes a lot of connecting the dots, repeatedly mention these symptoms so they can be veiewed as a constellation of co-existing symptoms rather than occasional nigling complaints. The BP is verifyable and demonstrated, MSA does not have a hard and fast set of tests. Since your father sounds a lot like me in my " I refuse to be sick " period, you might help him by writing down your observations, with dates and anecdotal examples (that will malke you father rmember too). My daughter helped me get a clearer picture, which put me back on the path of trying to get answers, and you do, above all, want to be treating the correct illness. Keep in mind that doctors in practice rarely have a patient with Shy Drager. I wish you and your dad the best of luck. aletta mes vancouver, bc Canada web: http://aletta.0catch.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
