talking

[Susan Shockley <tutu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think my first symptom was when I was  39.  I am taking requip, but all I
hear about Sinemet and how well it work. My neurologist wanted to try this
first.  What has scared me is seeing my symptoms exposed as I have made the
switch. I still am not up on the requip enough  to say its effective, but I
am having more trouble talking, and that's not fun.  Anything interesting
about this talking issue?
