Nice read but of no use. Taking c/l is a must for most PWP come what may.
Don't think so! Natural L-dopa has no side effects.
That is not the case. I have experienced dyskinesia with different forms of MP the same as I have with pharmaceutical c/l.
Sorry about that, Julie. Aren't you taking any kind of L-dopa now?
I take c/l 10/100 3-4x a day.
Does that mean that I am in danger of having more or less sex?
LOL, I read sex as......sex, not gender!
Not what you're looking for?
