My mother in law Dorothy who did write to you all last week about myrapex, she would have used my internet address, as I use this one only for Parkinson listserv, any way she had a bad experience the other morning. Her fingers started numbing, it then covered her hand and all the way up and down the right side of her body including the right side of her head. She thought that she was having a stroke. She takes 3 Mirapex, during the day, at the minimum amount, 1.5 mg and she has just started another drug to help her osteoporosis, called Fosamax and takes water pills at 20 mg as needed which is almost every day. She takes the Fosamax once a day first thing in the morning. She has been taking it for a few weeks now. Her fingers started getting numb right after she took it. She is concerned that the Fosamax might have caused it. It lasted for about an hoour then went away. She was wondering if anyone else had experienced this as a symptom of PD or was it just her or the Fosamax. She is 73 years old and was diagnosed with PD about 4-5 years ago. But we think that she has had it longer. Any input would be appreciated. Laurie ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
