9/9/97 Hello, I just recently joined the PARKINSN list =20 Let me introduce myself. I am a 57 year old male. I=92m chief engineer at a small southern California electronic manufacturing company. I was diagnosed with PD in February of this year. I am currently taking Eldepryl and Symmetrel. At this time my only significant symptom is a tremor in the right hand and arm and to a lesser degree in the right foot. These tremors have gradually become worse since their onset at the first of the year. I am interested in hearing from those with similar symptoms and what if any of the PD medications that might have helped in reducing the tremors.=20 I am particularly interested in knowing about the latest research in PD and would like to know of any experimental clinical drug studies that a person may participate in. Does anyone know the status of human testing of the nerve regenerative drug GPI-1046 from Guilford Pharmaceuticals. =20 Julian Hansen ( [log in to unmask] )
