The Mayo Clinic

Dennis' cell phone rang this morning while he was still in bed. I don't generally answer this phone, but an itty bitty voice in my head said, "pick it up." I always listen to that voice when it calls. It turned out to be the Mayo clinic calling, wanting to recruit Dennis for some new research they are conducting on Shy-Drager.

From a forum that I peruse occasionally, I knew the Mayo was doing research on dysautonomias (who remembers that word?), but now we found out, they are doing specific studies on Shy-Drager. Someone at the Mayo had found Dennis' name from his inquiry about the study of a new drug to control blood pressure concerns. Now, it seems, they are keen on using him for additional research studies.

This has the potential of being truly great news for him. We don't know where any of this might lead, naturally, but I do know the phone call lifted both of our spirits. At the very least he should receive an extensive exam by a specialist in Shy-Drager. Better still, perhaps some new drug that treats his symptoms more effectively. Truthfully, I am still holding out for a reversal of fortunes and a sudden cure. Now wouldn't that be loverly?

More news to come! And, don't forget the vocabulary test coming soon. Spelling will count!

Until Tomorrow,

My name is Robert Williams, I thought i should share this here as someone may need this information; I was diagnosed of Multiple system Atrophy in February 2013, my doctor told me it has no permanent cure, i was given some medications to ease the situation, this continued till a friend of mine told me about Dr Odi from Africa who cured her father of Multiple System Atrophy disease and Glaucoma.

I was diagnosed in November 2007 with Parkinson's Disease. I have left side tremors, balance and gait issues and some non-motor symptoms:  quiet voice, some cognitive decline, small handwriting. I am currently on Sinemet for tremors and Cymbalta for neuropathy related to diabetes and previous chemotherapy. It was on my 25th anniversary of surviving breast cancer that I got the PD diagnosis. I am 69, retired, single woman sharing a house with my sister.  I like to read, quilt, and crochet. I have been reading up on PD.  Until I read too much and it scares me.  Then I put it away until I calm down and can research it some more. I need advice and some direction. I searched further, visited Parkinson’s websites, blogs. I find info about someone having the same symptoms. I was really determined. Fortunately for me, I stumbled on a testimony of someone who had Parkinson’s for several years and was cured through Herbal medication. I read awesome stories of people whose condition were worse. I was not a fan of Herbal Medication, because I once believed that they have not researched it enough. But due to numerous testimonies  I was more than willing to try it…. I contacted  Dr. Fabien, and I purchased the medicine and used just the way doctor instructed. Its a thing of joy to come back and make my review.. It became a miracle for me within 7 months. The herbal medication worked without any trace of side effects on I’m…. totally free. I have been cured for Parkinson’s. I was a shocking experience with the medicine. I never knew I will be free for Parkinson’s disease.  Email dr.fabiencontantin@gmail.com or www.kunimeherbs.com
