If anyone hasn’t seen this already, this is a just WOW….AMAZING moment and I hope this can be a long term “solution” for another terrible disease.
This video is short but shows a man from the UK who has suffered for several years and has been on a daily regimen of various medications to control the symptoms. He is now on a medication called Prouodopa which is administered via a pump throughout the day. With some luck this wil make it to the States and hopefully will be very affordable.
Hopefully this drug will not wear off over time and dosages can remain stable and not need to be continually increased to keep fighting the disease and hopefully there will be no long term complications or bad side effects.
The change was within a few days of starting treatment.
Here’s just a short video
