Hi Jeff, I am waiting patiently, as my neuro said it won't be avail in the US until the end of the year, due to FDA here. I have had great relief from their "sublingual" dosing. I am so happy u like it. Can't wait!!!!

You have to wonder why this type of treatment was not pursued earlier because it seems logical that it would be helpful and I am just basing this on how the pumps seem to provide better treatment for patients with type 1 diabetes

Do or did u have a lot of "freezing?" If so, did the "pump" help decrease these? (I HATE them!!)
