Viagra and me.


Dear members,
I am 59, male , and was diagnosed with Parkinson's Plus in 1976. I am
taking Sinemet ,both liquid and CR, Mirapex, and Eldepryl. I experience
motor fluctuations including dyskinesia.

When I heard that Viagra might help the dyskinesia, I laughed, But a
good friend encouraged me to look into it. At 6 a.m. on June 28 I took
my first Viagra, Was kinda nervous .

I did not feel "right" on the 28th and 29th,
and the dyskinesia did not improve but seemed worse.  My doctor said to
discontinue.  I feel "right" again today the 30th.  My intention is not
to discourage anyone from trying it but to let you know that it does not
always work.

I hope it works for you.

Sincerely,
Myron Greene
