Rick Telford says he 'smiles more' and his 'body is able to move more' after taking Produodopa.
Rick Telford and his wife Lynne have praised the results of Produodopa, which was made available to almost 1,000 patients earlier this year
In May, he became the first person in Tyne and Wear to be treated with Produodopa, which involves wearing a portable kit and using a pump to steadily release medicine into the bloodstream 24 hours a day. It works by turning foslevodopa into the chemical dopamine, which helps transmit messages between the parts of the brain and nerves that control movement."It was quite tricky to get your head around using the cannula at first but the results were almost instant," she said.Mr Telford added: "My voice is much stronger, my body is able to move more and I smile more. I didn’t notice that but other people would tell me.
