HI, MY NAME IS JOE IMPERIALE [log in to unmask] I HAVE ALWAYS HAD RINGING IN MY EARS. MY NEUROLOGIST SAYS IT IS A PD SYMPTOM. BUT WHAT I HEAR IS A HIGH PITCHED TONE WHICH ONLY LASTS A COUPLE OF MIN. WHILE I'M HERE I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO INTRO MYSELF BUT WAS ALWAYS TOO ENGROSSED IN READING ALL THE INTERESTING MATERIAL ON THE XCHANGE TO FOLLOW THROUGH. JOSEPH M. IMPERIALE, AGE 44 DIAG AT AGE 38 WITH PD AT THE BEGINNING I WAS TAKING 25/100 SINEMET NOW I TAKE 25/250 1 TAB 3 TIMES A DAY SINEMET. I ASKED MY MD ABOUT DEPRENYL , HE SAID THE DATA IS NOT IN ON IT YET. I THINK I AM GOING TO PURSUE IT FURTHER. HE SAYS I AM DOING EXCELLENT. EASY FOR HIM TO SAY. I HAVE A WIFE AND 3 CHILDREN, PETE AGE 12, JOE AGE 10 AND ANGELINA AGE 8. BOY WHAT A HANDFUL. WE ARE ALL DOING THE BEST WE CAN, PETE AND JOE WERE DIAG BOTH AT AGE 8 WITH TOURETTE SYNDROME. SO THEY KEEP ME SO BUSY THAT I DON'T THINK TOO MUCH ABOUT PD. I WORK AT A UTILITY CO. HERE IN CT. AND I AM THANKFUL THAT I CAN STILL GO TO WORK EVERYDAY THOUGH MY DAYS ARE NOT SYMPTOM FREE. WE HAVE NO SUPPORT GROUP HERE IN CT SO YOU PEOPLE ARE MY ONLY SUPPORT AND AM THANKFUL FOR YOU ALL AND THE PD EXCHANGE NETWORK. WELL, HAVE TO GO FOR NOW. I AM STILL TRYING TO CATCH UP ON READING MY MAIL. BEST REGARDS TO ALL JOSEPH M. IMPERIALE [log in to unmask]
