I would be interested to know if anybody has had any experience with Parcopa
25 Mg./250 Mg.(carbidopa-levodopa orally disintegrating tablets.) The
tablets dissolve on your tongue. Good or bad I would appreciate your
response if you have had any experience with the medication.

Dear Rick,
Don't feel that you've offended me or that there is need for an apology.
This is a forum for those of us who are dealing with the day-to-day
challenges of Parkinson's disease.
While we are here to support, inform and befriend one another I believe
that we are here also to promote an awareness of the beliefs, opinions and
forces that affect this disorder and ultimately affect our lives. If we
fail to express ourselves when we question or disagree with these beliefs,
opinions and forces then we ultimately hand over to others the power to
govern the outcome of our lives.
We are too long in our quest for a cure for Parkinson's disease. Embryonic
stem cell research holds potential for a cure. Are we to sit by silently
and wait for others to decide if we are to pursue or discard that potential?
We have a voice. Our citizenship and our tax dollars give us a voice. My
Representative here in Illinois has heard my voice today when I called him
to urge him to vote for House Bill: HR 810 (the Stem Cell Research
Enhancement Act of
2005.) which will be coming to a vote in the next few weeks.
Keep on expressing yourself Rick. We need more of people like you and Ray
and Linda and Ned and Nina and Joe Brown and Joan Samualson and MJF and
Orrin Hatch and Nancy Reagan and Mike Castle and Mort and Milly Kondracke.

hey - Rick! You should see some of the things I've written in the past.
In fact, I got in trouble with my owners for my remarks. Anyway, no offense
taken. Each of us have to believe what is best for us. It just so happens
I BELIEVE.

Dr. Okun, et al
While I appreciate your extremely valuable efforts in continuing
the Ask the Doctor forum, I wish to help facilitate any effort by Dr.
Lieberman, whose opinions I also value, to create a new website unaffiliated
with the NPF. If any other subscribers to Ask the Doctor are of the same
mind I suggest that they e-mail this site and include their e-mail address
as I am doing, as suggested by another poster, to wit:.
Permission is hereby given to any registered medical officer to
contact me on any matters related to Parkinson Disease at this e-mail
address :

Thank you for your
concern and efforts
