Hi Craig....
Thanks for the congrats.
As for our question, I think that's one of those "Which came first, the
chicken or the egg" type questions. My GUESS.. and it's not a particularly
educated guess at that, 'cause I know very little about Tasmar other than what
list members post about tit, is that is might be the Tasmar - but maybe not!
I suggest ya post THIS question on the list so those who actually TAKE the
drug in their daily med regimen can respond, based upon real life experiences
rather than a mere guess like I'm giving ya.
Take care....
Barb M.

Bab Congratulations for the victory. For some unexplainable reason both
of my claims were appoved with no problem. The first was my claim to NJ
for benefits from them to cover me for the 6 months it takes for the
Social Security to make their decision. I was notified in sufficient
time to notify the state agency to not send me a check for Dec 97.They
didn't and it saved me the trouble of mailing it back to Trenton. A far
as the review goes I under stand that PWP are scheduled for their case
review after 5 years.
I have a few questions to ask..First on the meds I Take. After the
initial go around the Neuro settled on this for my regimine.SinemetCR
50/200 tabs 1 1/2 3 times a day,,
Artane 2mg tbs 1x3times a day,Eldepryl 5 mg tabs 1 x 2 times a day, now
the next one is
Tasmar. The only reason i'm on it is because I asked him about it.So he
wrote a presciption for it of Tasmar 100mg 1 x 3 times a day.How ever he
took me off the
Mirapex at this time.. Now it seems to me at this change in my meds,also
brought about
a sudden and drastic change in my falling backwards. Lets say an
average of 5-times a day easily.An orthopedic surgeon I was seeing for
something else took a look at when I was in to see him about two
weeks ago.He moved my right arm around a little bit and then sent me
down the hall for X-Rays. I was not surprised when he said I have bone
chips in there. Its go to be a result of all the falling I am doing.My
question is this
Is it because of the change to Tasmar or just a natural progression of
PD. I notice most of our fellow PWP when they talk about their meds
mention their schedule as a specific time not like my schedule of 3
times day. Well thats about for this time If you have any questions
please ask them. Thanks for listning. Craig 60/2.
