I don't know about phase 2. I have an appointment in March and was planning to ask about it. They have expanded the trial to other centers. Franny
I appreciate the info, Franny.

Snce I started taking Isradipine, I haven't had any side effects, other than sleepiness. I'm not sure if it's helping with PD, but it works for my blood pressure - and I like to think it is extending the time between increases of Ropinirole dosages.

Good luck with everything.
