Parkinsons Azilect
 

HI everybody,
I was diagnosed 10 years ago and have been opn Sinemet , Mirapex and Comtan for years. Two months ago my neurologist suggested switching from Comtan to Azilect. Initially it seemed like an improvement but lately I have been getting freezing spells more frequently and walking is very poor ( staggering along) Has anyone had experience with Azilect? I wonder if I should change back to Comtan --or maybe it's just the disease progressing??

Thanks,

Bill

Azilect
 

Hi all Parkinson's suferers,

I was diagnosed with Parkies 2 years ago and have been on Requip since then
(may be under a different name for You). My Neuro wants to put me on Azilect, which is not yet approved here in South Africa, but surfing the net have cme accros some worring side affects. One being the inability to have an orgasm! Has anyone out there had this side effect? It's still one of the joys left in life.
