Guest guest Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Thanks , I'll take a look at his website. I know that the Parkinsons medications have helped my husband maintain the ability to still be able to stand and even take some steps with his walker. He tires out much faster now, but he still can get on his feet. As I said, when the Mirapex was given to my husband, which is a Parkinsons medication, it was a miracle. He could once again walk without falling and cut his food. I can not express what that did for his life. I know that it may not even work for others. As with this disease, no two people take to medications the same way. But I say anything is worth a try as long as Jim can still stand and take steps who knows what Azilect could do for him, maybe something, maybe nothing. I am going to check into it when it comes out in August.
