Also it caused a skin rash which only Almay Stress Cream could stop the intense itching. Then Almay quit making the stress cream, and I decided that someone was trying to tell me something, so I stopped the Eldepryl. It was a blessing I did, because 2 months after that my colon ruptured, and I would have been in serious trouble with the Eldepryl and pain medications. I have found that I generally react just the opposite to medications as most people do, except for Sinemet, which has been like a miracle drug to me. Do you suppose its because I'm left handed and right brained? As Ever, Marjorie Moorefield just another librarian with PD, 64/9
