My dad's new med
Hi all, I posted a few days ago about my dad finally getting to the neuro. I described my dad's walk & that the doc had said that it was NOT indicative of PD. I got several replies saying that it defintlely was a PD walk. The new med that my dad is taking is Pramidexole / Mirapex in addition to Sinemet. What does Mirapex do different from the Sinemet? Dad says that he doesn't have on/off's or at least there is very little difference between the two. Is that aanyone esle's experience? He continues to have slow, awkard walking, after he gets started, etc. Bonnie
