Ceregene Trial Fails
 
no significant improvement over the placebo group.

couldn't we see this coming? i never held out hope for ceregene. it's no fun being right about it, but i didn't expect anything. now who made money from it all. we have to stop the system the way it is.

longer post i've tried once to post but lost it. have to go to physical therapy, one of the few succesfull treatments for parkinsons. will put longer one up later.

Yeah, physical therapy, including dance or anything that is all about the body and not about words, seems to be the major way to reducing the suffering. A truckload of spiritual or meditation things can help too, especially if mixed together with some serious hopping around -- go physical until you are puffing and panting, and then lie down and just listen.
Paula, I often "save" a post on my computer, and then cut and paste to post it here. Otherwise I often somehow have the post disappear.
You will put up a longer post later, you say. We shall hold you to that. None of this "the dog ate my homework" stuff.

for some reason it showed up on a pipeliner's list. Now we can hope that i will have to eat my words. it is how a feel about it, but that doesn't mean it won't succeed.

mjff i believe is contributing funds to the current trial.
if i remember correctly, they monitored the "lab rats" after the trial ended and some started showing improvement 18months later.
i'm hoping they get some good results.
