Dopamine is implicated in Social Phobia and this has been consistenly shown (linked). A social phobic has 6 more chances of developping Parkinson (or was it 1 in 6 ? major difference but I doesn't have time to research it right now). Now they found out that 1/2 the Parkinson sufferers develop social phobia...
My grand-father died of Parkinson a couple years ago. I'm not aware that he was social phobic in his life or while being sick. For my part, I'm social phobic and have alot of atypical or strong reaction to (anti)dopaminergic drugs... all kind of bad somehow.
Any social phobic here with good experience with (anti)dopaminergic drugs / specific Parkinson drugs ?
Anyone knows of to check for common implicated/suspected gene variation and such BETWEEN Social Phobia and Parkinson ? I know there are good database on the net but I never checked them out..
