I would imagione Parkinsons is a little like that when they first start the dosage, but it would seem as lo0ng as he has been taking it he pretty much shopuld know the correct dosage.

No - Parkinson's is much much more complicated. And there is no "correct" dosage. The same dosage on different days will affect a Parkinsons patient differently. Also, many Parkinson's patients will have a med work for them initially, but the effects wear off over time as the disease progresses. That's when dosage has to be increased, or a new med prescribed. But no matter how much one does, there is always a balancing factor - there isn't a "correct" dosage that one can take. And even under the best of circumstances, the meds help to control symptoms, but they don't ever provide complete control or normalcy.

Actually MJF has admitted in his book that he himself foregone his medication, to make a political point.

MJF has no one to blame but himself for his antics in political manipulation.
