Stiffness is the Parkinsons. If you have reduced neupro recently more likely due to that.

Simenent has worked well for me i had some swelling of my ankles for a while but it went away don't know if it was the Simenent. I have been on it in some form for 14 months. (11 months using 25/100 tablets, rytary for 3 months). I now take it 5 times a day.

The key for me has been water! I'm getting much better results with the Sinemet if I can take on an empty stomach with 2 tall glasses of water.

Sounds like you were recently diagnosed. I have created a list of 100+ Symptoms that includes edema. Send me an e-mail to: macbunch@Hotmail.com In the areas at the top for subject matter, put 'Symptoms'. I will send back an Excel list to check off items as you become aware. There are many features to the form, so be sure to read to the very last part of the 'How to Use'.

This offer is open to anyone reading this.

Taking Sinemet restored some of the flex/extension movement in my effected ankle. Confusing that it worsened or caused that Parkinson's symptom when you took it. Sounds like the opposite of "therapy". Contact the prescribing MD.
