His condition was deteriorating when he began Eldepryl about 5 or 6 years ago. After he started taking that med he regained some his old functioning ability. The most important benefit of the drug was that he was able to sleep at night. Although Jamie's symptoms continue to increase, he is not losing function at the rapid rate he was prior to taking Eldepryl. --- Blessings Mary Ann Ryan
