levodopa or not levodopa
So the new young doctor said I should take
Levodopa
and that the dyskinesia caused by
Levodopa
is a myth because nowadays with low dosage this doesn’t happen. I don’t want to take it but my husband insists I should try. It’s my body and I will do whatever I decide is good for me.

Levodopa
long term and in high doses have ever experienced withdrawal symptoms when tapering or stopping the treatment with
Levodopa
(L/C or
Levodopa
/Benzarazide).If you have, I would be grateful if you could describe the withdrawal symptoms you have had, and how

Have any one heard or tried L-Tyrosine ?
My doctor said that you can try it, but, should not take it with
levodopa
the same time, should take it apart from
levodopa
. Has someone tried it ?

Very interesting video on controversial issues regarding managing Parkinson’s at different stages (from 2 guys that seem smart).
; (4) Are natural sources of
levodopa
better than synthetic
levodopa
pills?; (5) Can cannabis help PD symptoms and is it safe for PD?; (6) Should deep brain stimulation (DBS) be offered earlier in PD rather than later? If so, how early?

Citicoline: "patients treated with citicoline experienced a significant worsening 45 days after the medication was discontinued". Updated.
I was not taking very much
levodopa
to begin with so reducing
levodopa
was not very important to me.

Nicht nur Nachts im Bett
Seit ein paar Monaten wirkt die 1 ganze Tablette nicht mehr für die ganze Nacht, daher nehme ich zusätzlich noch eine
Levodopa
. Die Symptome kommen jetzt Tagsüber auch beim längeren Autofahren und längerem sitzen.

What kind of "unusual body movements" does stopping Levodopa cause?
Cutting back on
Levodopa
a little seems to lesson, but farther reduction seems to make worst.
Am I trying to reduce
too quickly? A listed side effect of
Levodopa
withdrawal is unusual body movements.

Arm swinging and levodopa
I was just wondering if anyone have their arm start to swing again after taking
levodopa
. My left arm does not swing freely when walking. Left leg also does not move well either.

Effect stacking
Hello everyone, understanding my difficulties that I write in the diary, I came across the term "stacking effects" on the forum, which is mentioned in the dosage and understanding of the effect of
levodopa
. What is 'effect stacking' and how to recognize it. Thank you.

Mild dyskinesia, severe dyskinesia and Freezing of Gait (FOG)
Dear All, I was given the task of keeping a patient diary with a schedule of hours according to the symptoms that appear after taking
levodopa
. Can someone from the forum give me a list of symptoms that include mild dyskinesia, severe dyskinesia and freezing of gait (FOG)?
