Has anyone had experience with the Apomorphine Pump?

I was dianosed with Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease 18 years ago (2005) and have many add-on problems that have a great influence on my daily life. (Orthostatic hypotention, ruptured major iliopsoas tendon, burning mouth and tongue syndrome, anxiety attacks - to name a few.

I can not get comfortable standing, walking, sitting or lying down. I have an intolerance to many prescription drugs so life is not very easy.

I have been offered to try the Apomorphine pump (I have to be able to set it up by myself as well as inserting the needle (tack) subcuteously into my atomach every day.

I would be grateful for anyone's thoughts regarding the pump.. I am 76 years of age and female.

Thank you. Lucky Pucky
