hi, kim -
to answer your question--yes, i do have pd. my father had pd, and died 13 yrs ago at age 64. i suffer with constant pain--soulders, back, foot. i haven't found anything that helps. i've had pd since my 30's but didn't start taking meds until 49. i've just had to quit my job as an office manager and go on disability. my memory or body, and also my driving is not what it use to be. dr friedman put me on stalevo last week. from 12:30 in the afternoon on i could get off the chair or walk. so, i'm back on sinement. i'm taking it 5 times a day now. dr friedman does not believe in giving narcotics for pain. he said his experience, they only cause problems down the line and are additive. hope your mother gets some relief. donna
