Pseudomonas42. Is BIG & LOUD online? I can’t take the drugs, so I want to increase my exercises. I only weigh 94, petite, and since exercise builds Dopamine, I need to find some I can do daily besides the treadmill. I am in an exercise class 2x a week. Thank you. Beth🙂

@Azilect was the first medication that I was prescribed 11 years ago and at that time I only had a tremor in my hand on one side. It did not stop my tremor. It my doctor kept me on it for the neural benefits and ability to slow the progression . I recently had DBS surgery and my doctor kept me on the @Azilect. I take 1 mg tablet once per day. My progression has been very slow over those 11 years and I can only assume that is why. It recently went to generic and I pay only $5.00.

What is stage 4. What is stage 1,2,3

@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member It would be best to go through the four-week session with a certified physical therapist. It is not online. You can purchase a DVD and use it for follow-up on your own. I attend a weekly group session which is led by a BIG certified Physical Therapist. This group is a support group, too. We encourage and support each other.

About Azilect, I think the problem is: it’s impossible to compare with something which doesn’t exists!That is: we know how we have been during the time we took it, but we have no way to know how we have been without taking it. More over, since every Parkie is different,we have no way to compare with others, either. I took it for 3 years right after my diagnosis and quit it a year ago after 2 doctors said there is no need to take it. I was feeling too disappointed to ask why. After quitting, I have not felt much difference in my symptoms.
