Medications not fully helping :(

Nowadays, even after taking dopamine, I don’t feel well- mostly towards end of the day but sometimes towards beginning. I supplement with dopamine agonists Small dose- ropinorole 0.125 mg; it helps a little. I am feeling weak on my right side constantly. Vitamin B1 hasn’t helped me fully. Any suggestions?

Maybe your dose is not high enough but you give no chance to allow people to help as you haven't given us a clue of how long you've had PD for

Hi

Here is some holiday reading and viewing

You may be interested in these articles and videos.

Here are my videos and some more info on the fast walking. The Mayo Clinic Report and the Pd Patient’s Progress in Japan are MUST READ for EVERYBODY stories!

Pd medication does nothing to slow the progression of Pd. So, you continue to get worse. Why not try Fast Walking, which does reverse Pd symptoms?

If you want more information then go to my website reverseparkinsons.net

My book has the answers to most of our movement problems and a few of the others as well. It tells you how I went about beating this horrible condition. I have lived since 2002, Pd medication-free and I used to walk every second day for 8 Kilometres in 70 Minutes up to the age of 74. Then after several medical problems I walked 5 kilometres in under 50 minutes, up to the age of 84. Now at age 87 I am still able to walk 4 kilometres in 40 minutes. I am having more health problems, which prevent me from walking for a while, but

If you have not read my yet, then give yourself a treat and find out how I managed to overcome most of my movement problems and live a ‘NORMAL’ life since 2002, “Reverse Parkinson’s Disease?” is available at the following link”

Don’t be shy to ask questions.

Good Luck

John
