I cut back when the dyskinesia is bothersome and it helps.

Dyskinesia: Go on line and Google a request for info, is the best tip I can comeup with as I never heard of this condition before.

You might ask your Dr.about Amantadine Hydroxide genera name in Australia of Symetrel

I have been taking it for a number of years and it helps control the symptoms. is also DBS which if you are eligible is the best known alleviation for this condition...

Good luck

I do! For me, I have had pd for 14 years...still living lifers full! Dyskenisa for me has been trial and error....I have found with sinemet as needed...1/2 dose 1/4 dose whole dose mix it up as needed...pray for treatment!

I know what you are going through. Mine was terrible until I reduced the strength of my Sinemet. Now that the disease has progressed, my doctor keeps me on as low dose of Stalivo and Mirapex as possible and up to now I haven't had any more dyskenesia. .But I don't know what will happen as the disease progresses and I require higher strengths. It seems to be a trade off - experience the worsening PD symptoms which for me are mainly gait difficulty - or improve my gait and suffer the dyskenisia. I'm hoping that regular exercise will keep me able to walk without increasing the strength of my meds but I really don't know how well that will work. I'd appreciate hearing from others about this.

Hi Export

My tip for you is Amantadine (Symmetrel) which I take as a preventative against dyskinesia (That is what I believe and given the power of the mind...) and have taken 100Mg twice a day for about 5 years (before I started Sinemet Plus) and now take them with my first two doses of Sinemet Plus. I also take Azilect -2MG - with my first dose. I have been diagnosed for nearly 11 years (in June) and don't have dyskinesia

Thank-you All of you
