Hi Bruce,
With regard to Apomorphine, I have to confess I am not famili=
ar with the chemistry of how it works, all I do know is that it has the =
same effect as Sinemet and Madopar, only it takes effect almost instantly=
, as it is injected, as opposed to the tablets, which as you know
can't always be relied upon to get into your system within a set time.
I get the impression from my neuro' that it is considered as something =
of a last resort, there is no doubt that it works well, but if the trade-=
off is the terrible dyskenesia previously mentioned, I think that this =
is one treatment that I won't be asking for!
Regards,
