I am new to blogging, this is our story.
My wife has had PD for 3 years and treated only with Sifrol (pramipexole) and Cipramil for the nerves, we found when we increased doses the PD symptoms got worse, so we reduced to the current level which was okay til now, then the local GP suggested 'it is time to get on the ladder of progressive medications to help the PD', so we saw the neurologist who suggested we start on Levadopa. I felt, knowing the side effects, this is not a good thing, so we decided to look at the path of 'Natural therapies'.
We are now getting a fairly good effect and the doses are as follows;
Sifrol .75mg.
Cipramil 20mg
Gotu Kola 425mg
ginkgo 2g
Q10 150mg and the one I think is helping the most is,
Mucuna Prureins from Biovia 1 cap 200mg
The result is my wife still has good days and some not so good, but mostly good days now. No side effects like have been described as for taking Levadopa, Sinemet etc. The Mucuna Dopa is a low dose so we can increase by taking 2 caps every second day. In all, I think not a bad result
