Mental illness meds and Parkinson's disease
Please let me know if there are any others who had a mental illness and took meds for long time and then developed aggressive form of Parkinson's. A doctor at Mohammed Ali PD clinic did PET scans and said PD was caused by Depakote....then went to Research movement clinic and was told it was not caused by meds (no family history of PD)
Would welcome comments....Thx Karen
