Whats the Carbidopa to be given with Mucana?? Mucana has been something we gave mom a few years ago , but that was before she had the fall which left her completely bed/wheelchair bound . I have been fighting a lot of battles as the doctors almost gave up when they should have been trying to help.
Long story short, i am trying to reintroduce Mucana for energy , wakefulness , less side effects etc . last time i remember mixing mucana powder with strong concoction of green tea - cause someone said EGCG is a carbidopa . So questions again on efficiacy of taking Mucana alternately with sinemet , but whats the carbidopa that we need to take with it .
Its been a tough few years and the current covid situation has of course been crazy. Praying for everyone to be safe .
++Irony is that she took a lot of simenet earlier and then over the years when we learnt about the disease and the terrible dyskinesia she was getting from it - we switched to lesser meds - now she is taking 1/4 tablet of 25/100 sinemet - 9 times a day . So that is 2.14 of 25/100 sinemet . Is she always on or always off no - its like good times and bad times .. sometime no energy and at nite she will talk .. I am an engineer and trying to find the optimal sine wave to keep her on times up with a combination of sinemet and mucana .. PL give your feedback
