Jack-
I do ask my neurologist these questions ( I'd be a fool if I did not- if that is what you are insinuating) this site is used for common concerns. I like to hear what everyone else does or hears of. I take the advise and use it or not -I do NOT expect to get a doctor's recommendation. Your post was unnecessary and rude.

The site is a social network for people to discuss their condition from their personal experience. It's a safe and welcoming environment where members share experiences and support each other and form bonds.
If you're looking for advice for a treatment you're taking or need help with your condition in which medical advice is required, the best course of action is to partner with your healthcare provider.
While others' experiences with the same or similar issue may be helpful, you are a unique individual with unique needs and circumstances. Only a professional (i.e. Neurologist) that can interact with you on a personal level can provide the most accurate and helpful treatment advice.

Ginny,
I have tried LSVT last year and it did help a little but it has progressed a lot since. Then I had a issue with the bill- the PT charged my insurance over 24,000 for 4 weeks of therapy!!!! That left me with a bill over 2,000!! So, I cannot afford to do that again. I am very intent with my walking but the festinating and freezing still happens.
