Experiences with

Adalat retard

I am still in the process of being diagnosed, but it looks like I have limited systemic scleroderma, with the main manifestations at the moment being Raynaud's, Gastroesophageal reflux disease, and itchy skin on my arms and legs. I take omeprazole for the GERD, which is working well. The Raynaud's symptoms

Hi, My cardiologist has taken me off bisoprolol and put me on tildiem retard due to me still getting angina pain on walking despite having two stents. I've also been referred for a stress echocardiogram on 24 April to see if I have another narrowing. He doesn't want to do an angiogram/CT unless absolutely

my husband has been taking Rytary for a year. We noticed his veins get large and tingle which he says at time hurts. It gives him a terrible headache more then the the plain C/L. The Dr wants him to consider DBS now . He said it has benefits but won’t last forever then back to square one. He doesn’

1 -25/100 and 145 mg Rytary helps with off time when I run out of dopamine, I have to sit down and wait for pills to kick in, but the Rytary helps with that now, but I’m very stiff and achy in leg and arm since on Rytary, anyone else experiencing stiffness with Rytary? I wish these meds didn’t have

~1 year into my PD Recently I have started hanging around with my nephews (11 and 13) and am doing MUCH more exercise. My goal now is to sweat every day - from pickleball, hiking, running, etc. Results: much less stiffness, better sleep, occasionally skip 1 dose of Rytary at night since I don't

History: I am 69, female, diagnosed in 2015,7 months after suicide of my soulmate (we were together33 years). More than one neuro has agreed that the PD was triggered by the emotional trauma. I was a dancer and a cyclist and worked out for many years prior to PD. On Rytary 145’s 2 at 7am, 2 at 11am

Does anyone take Rytary around the clock. My dr told me to play with it to figure out what works best. I know this is an unusual dosage, but to prevent dyskinesia I take one 195 every three hours until eight pm, after that very little sleep until my next dose at 5 am. Now that doesn’t appear to be

I had a great 1st visit with a new MDS last week. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much. To be honest,  I am very pleased!  The visit lasted over 3 hours one on one.  He told me I have no symptoms of MSA or PSP, so he recommended against a DAtScan. He conducted a cognitive exam, found no evidence of

On 13 FEB 2023, i was re-diagnosed. I no longer have PD. Instead, I have PLS (Primary Lateral Sclerosis. The end game is still the same but so far the muscle tighness has gotten better. Since the diagnosis, i have weaned myself from Rytary and have been prescribed Baclofen. The symptoms of PLS have

So my hwp had his new neurology appt. with UCSD today and she said she didn't think he has Parkinsons. So they are doing testing - brain MRI, Neuro testing, heart test, Neuro urology appt. etc. My guess is to confirm LBD which has been my fear all along. He was diagnosed in 2019 with "Parkinson's

my husband has been on Rytary for several months. He has noticed shortly after that when the medication begins to work his veins in his arms are noticeably visible and his hair on his arms stand up. Anyone else notice this?

I've been losing weight, hard to eat enough to maintain. OFF interferes a lot with both eating and exercise. I've been offered to consider Entacapone, Neupro patch, Apomorphine sublingual, Rytary. All have pros and cons. I don't want to add to anticholinergic load, so as I understand, that leaves either

Dear Members! My husband is not doing well on Madopar. Our doctor recommends Rytary but it is not available in Hungary, so we have to order it from abroad US, Canada or New Zeiland. Can you give me source/pharmacy where can we get it at lowest price? We will solve somehow the delivery. thank you!!!

Hi, just seen my Cardiologist`s report from his people that help him. Before I waffle on, my main worry is that I am asymptomatic with afib. I see posts about going to A&E after being in AF after so long etc. Am I supposed to monitor anything, as I don`t have a clue apart from being breathless that

I was dignoased at age 69 in 2015. First symptom was illegible handwriting. I think I have tried the majority of Rx as well as mannitol, B1 therapy, infrared lite,Ps128 probiotic, all to no avail. i take rytary now since october 2021 which I think helped what I thought was akathisia( I felt I needed

Firstly, sorry, I don`t know how to add to an old post so started this. To try and keep it short I had a cardioversion for Afib which worked for a few weeks. I was later put on bisoprolol which I really struggled to walk any distance and upstairs (Asthmatic). Many kind people on here gave me good

my doctor just gave me these to try. I’m taking sinemet now, 25/100 3 times a day. I haven’t started the rytary yet because it’s only a 5 day supply until it’s approved by my insurance. How do I switch to it from my other medicine and what should I expect? I’m 2 yrs into my diagnosis and I’m not really

I've always had difficulty believing I had PD. So 5 weeks ago I stopped taking Rytary. During the 5 weeks I had periods that led me to think I was having withdrawal symptoms. It's only been two days back on the meds but so far nothing much happening. Along with Rytary I've been taking Linzess

Sensitive topic for certain whether man or woman. My question is how does l- dopa affect one's libido. At age 66 I don't have much interest but I assumed it's from my age. BUT, since stopping the Rytary thing are different. Stopping rytary had several effects. First, Suddenly my arms and
