My Dad has Lewy Body dementia and has developed PD symptoms. He is in assisted living. My Mom still lives in their home. The LB symptoms began a long time ago as we think back. My husband probably had early onset PD but was not diagnosed till 2000. He did take a med where he saw things that were not there but the doc took him off of it pretty quickly. Best wishes to all that read this!

I hope this drug proves to be helpful. My husband developed Lewy Bodies Dementia about 10 years after he was diagnosed with Parkinson's. It was really a painful process and I can't imagine the fear he felt. When it first started he wasn't so upset, he would just tell me he could see animals, and faces in the rocks, etc., but toward the end it was very upsetting as every time he heard a door slam or a loud noise he thought a gun fight was going on.

Anytime there a new drug just been releases it will be hard to find a iinsurance company that will paid they want to wait from one to three years for a generic to come out if u ask me. This is from information that I have been thru

????...Could we say that they are causing our death by pricing it out of our reach????
Therefore guilty murder or at least manslaughter, that is how I see it, after all
