Wondering what this documentary has to do about 'mirapex ruined my life" ?

Dave Iverson is a great guy; he's also hosting the MJFF podcasts and serves on their Patient Advisory Council.

The Dave Iverson special is really quite extraordinary. Especially stunning, toward the end of the documentary, is the contrast between the 2 monkeys studied at the University of Pittsburgh. Makes a compelling case for the power of exercise as it relates to PD.

I'm concerned about the horrid pills given to PD patients, of which mirapex is one ! IBID. -
for ibidem, a Latin word meaning “in the same place.” It is used in footnotes and bibliographies to refer to a source cited in a previous entry.

this pill is basically on the same page as any pill that we take...
