Questions About Meds?

There's a website, crazymeds.com, that you can go to that gives honest information about different meds that we take. The site mainly deals with depression and anxiety issues but you can also get information about other meds as well. The site issues a disclaimer ["consult with your physician"], but the information and the comments section is worth the trouble. They also have a blog section. [see also: crazymeds.us]

Why not go on the publications section of the Parkinson's UK web site? They have some excellent information about everything from A to W. (Sorry, no XYZ info.) They also have a forum, but the publications are scientifically justified and wide ranging.

I run a support group for people of working age affected by carers and this site, our Parkinson's Diesease Nurse and the Information and Support Workers employed by Parkinson's UK are a mine of information for people who are floundering around with a diagnosis in the Health and Social Care systems here in England.

I live in Cornwall. PS I am not paid a commission, I just know we wouldn't have coped if it hadn't been for all of these three strands of support when my husband was diagnosed.

I go to any site that will offer any information that will keep me fully informed. The information on the The Michael J Fox Foundation site convinced me to offer myself for participation in their studies.
