Reply to Parkie Patty,
I too have been in the Clinical Trials and I think mine was even longer than 3 years its seems, but I most certainly can imagine what you are going through. I have a 3 month supply that I just begining to start on, but sooner or later I am sure I will have to switch over Mirapex. I just found this forum a few minutes ago so I am new.

I was excited when I found out about the patch study. Now, to hear about the recall has left me very angry and lost. So many questions. How many patches were crystallized?? How did this all come about?? Why can't the question, "Will it be back on the market?" be answered. I feel like we are being left in the dark. Even my Neurologist is frustrated. I spoke to someone at UCB who stated that we would be reimbursed for unused patches. That's all well and good but I just want the patch back. Why is there so little info out on this?? I know others that are feeling the same. We've been on the net searching and found the same "excuse" being used. I am just at a lost. The ole' saying...Nothing good lasts forever. Thanks for letting me vent.
