Dear Barbara, My name is Rosemary and my husband Rollin who has Parkinson, is called Dex. He was diagnosed in Dec. of 1993 at which time he came under the trial tests for Pramipexole at the Parkinson Institute in Sunnyvale, CA and has been taking it ever since. It has been very beneficial for him and we are hoping it will be on the market soon. Last we heard unofficially was maybe July or August. Along with the rest of you who "don't smell good", neither does Dex. His lack of smell also predates his PD. We wonder if the loss of smell could be an early indicator of PD?? Anyone have a market for wild dreams? Dex has very active ones which have landed him on the floor. Aside from some bumps and bruises no major damage has been done thus far. Remember we are the movers and shakers of our time. Rosemary and Dex Dexter ([log in to unmask])
