RLS ? Magnesium
I saw a neuro doc about 16 years ago, who had me on Dopamine /
levodopa
. After reading about the side effects of the drugs, I stopped using them and decided to live with the condition. However a year on, I had some treatment done called N.O.T ( Neurological organisational technique).

Levodopa and Mucuna Purins
If you take both, are you simply doubling the amount of
Levodopa
going into your body? I understand that taking too much meds can be as bad as taking too little. Also, does MP wear off over the years until it has no more effect?

I've defeated my loss of levodopa benefit that happens after eating protein
But pretty soon I realized taking the green tea extract and some C was all that was needed to get the
levodopa
back to flowing across the BBB, easing my tremor. I was back to walking good and that dose of MP kept working for over 3 hours. Yay!

My Experience with Wisdom Healing Qigong
[Update Dec. 2021: My total daily dosage varies between 250 – 300 milligrams of
levodopa
daily]. My left arm has tremor sometimes, but not the restless discomfort I had experienced before. I did experiment with no Sinemet at all.

In referencing a drug interaction app I read that my wife's b/p tablets, amlodipine besylate, interact synergistically with
levodopa
, yay!

Risk of long-term levodopa/carbidopa side effects
Used on a long-term basis,
levodopa
might also cause restlessness, confusion or abnormal movements.

Aunt Bean from Tennessee, United States sends greetings from America. I have Parkinson's Disease. I treat my PD naturally and do very well.
Just a quick note from Aunt Bean. I depend on fava beans for most of my PD symptom relief. Making my own L-dopa extract with both the stem top buds and fava bean pods in brandy. Also using herbs, vitamins , organically grown vegies from our farm here in TN. It is a lot of work, but the fresh air, and

NO TREMOR OR STIFFNESS AT A.M.
Why I don't have tremors or heavy stiffness when I wake up in the morning until I get
Levodopa
-Carbi pills? Same when L-dopa is going down, but an hour after that I have no tremors. Been with PD 15 yrs.

Apo-go-Pen
For that I reduced by half my
Levodopa
dosage which is not without difficulty and 2 days before the switch my Neuro asked me to take Domperidone which is an anti-vomiting drug. I would be grateful for information from someone else undergoing the same treatment change. Catherine
