I am new to this.
Constipation is a big issue as the dosage of Movicol combined with Senekot does not work consistently and PD medication on time reduces from 3 hours down. I am considering a home enema kit as I seem to be permanently constipated.
Anyone tried an enema kit?
DBS application now in process though I am not yet fully convinced.
Medical Marjuana (cbd oil with THC) not legal where I reside but had an opportunity to try it in Spain. I simply wanted to get a full night's sleep and it worked. CBD oil without THC was ineffective.
Does anyone know how CBD with THC works in places where it is legal? (some states in USA and Barcelona region of Spain).
Kemadrin was a key componnent in my medication arsenal affecting Tremor and I need to remove it due to unwanted adverse effects on memory. I am now down to 2.5mg per day and having problems removing it fully.
Anyone still using Kemadrin?

Welcome to the forum! There is a ton of useful information available on this forum and you should be able to get some good ideas for PD related issues. There are also many knowledgeable people with lots of experience who will be able to answer many of your questions.
As far as the constipation issue, some forum members have found that high dose vitamin B-1 / thiamine effectively resolves the issue along with many other symptoms of PD.
Here is a post that discusses its use in PD:

I have a question for you regarding your problem. Did you have constipation before you were diagnosed with PD or did it come after you were diagnosed. I ask because I am interested if constipation is one of the earliest symptoms or if it is a later symptom.
