OK, I'll be serious. This is an interesting way to account for the anecdotes of symptoms disappearing within days of starting an antibiotic only to return upon cessation.

It also provides an alternative look at the work of Dobbs and others which shows an improvement in PD upon the eradication of H pylori. It may not be the HP at all.

There are some pretty powerful probiotics out there. Jarrow makes a particularly strong one. I wonder if just introducing known beneficial microbes would have effect....?

Dear reverett123, you mentioned a pdf on probiotics in a 2/7/2011 post, thread was on FMT. is it possible to get copy of the pdf? do you have any further info on FMT/Parkinsons? Trying to help my Dad, possibly myself someday.
I'm sure you're busy, thank you in advance for any help or pointers in the right direction.
Best,
Abraham
