Dear Billie,
Welcome to the list. It will help others to give advice if you will let
us know any and all medications you're taking -- has the doctor added
anything besides Eldepryl?

> Does anyone have helpful hints  for loss  of taste and  blurring vision?

Loss of the senses of smell and taste are both very common with PD. This
usually happens anyway as we age, but PD can bring it on sooner. Some
people eat less because food doesn't seem as appealing. Try not to let
this happen. If you can't face a big meal, try eating half at mealtime,
and the other half an hour or two later -- or eat several small meals
with substantial snacks in between meals.

Looking forward to hearing more from you --
Best,
Kathrynne
