I am requesting good thoughts and prayers for my mom.

She is holding her own. The waiting is very stressful on her and she isn't well to begin with. The "waiting" is to see a BP specialist on May 5th who will hopefully resolve her low BP issues. She has drops in BP when she stands up, possibly as a result of her condition and definitely as a result of the Sinemet, the Parkinson's med she is on.

So...get the BP handled, adjust the Sinemet, re-adjust the BP med (probably), and start her on the month-long trial for a CPAP machine. (She stops breathing about 41 times per hour, according to her sleep test. And she's SKINNY!).

I really hope that putting all these things together will help her feel better. She can't be cured - be being more comfortable is the goal here.

Thank you.
