Welcome rsprin2. Can anyone tell be what this scan that you speak of is? I'm a 51 yr female who was dx'ed in 2009 as "moderately advanced" I take simenet 25/100 4 times a day and still work 6 hours a day. Most of my family doesn't seem to think anything is wrong with me and wonder why I should want to retire. Before I was dx'ed I was tired, stiff and achey but I powered through, got up every morning and went to work...but I digress. I thought Parkinson's didnt show up on brain scans?
