"In July 1982, a 42-year-old addict in a San Jose, California jail became paralyzed--unable to move or talk. His symptoms, caused by a bad batch of synthetic heroin, were indistinguishable from those associated with Parkinson's disease, a degenerative nerve disorder that strikes the elderly. NOVA traces the story of a "designer" drug which could lead to a major medical breakthrough. When a drug addict suffers a mysterious ailment, doctors trace his symptoms to an additive he ingested in a bad batch of heroin. His case helps to unlock some mysteries about Parkinson's Disease. The documentary examines current treatments for Parkinson's Disease as well as efforts to understand and find treatments for the ailment. Summary and select metadata for this record was submitted by Miriam Posner."
