When is every one going to realize different drugs react differently on Parkinson's patients........ My husband has taken(and I have told this many times) for 19 years, there was nothing else available at the time of his diagnosis, and he STILL has very little movement, but he has some. No one can make a statement that after so many years sinemet reacts that way with all patients...That's why Parkinson's is called a designer disease. Some things work and some don't, you keep trying until you find the right combination. As to the Arkansas signer with the VA, insist that they find out more,PADREC is a great organization within the VA that works just with Parkinson's.
