"Off periods"
My only symptom was lack of convergence. That means my eyes can't focus on one thing. The eyes send two images to the brain. It may have been my earliest symptom. Late in races I'd begin to see the trail in front of me and also bushes or weeds to the left of the trail. When it was bothersome

Hypochondria
Hypochondria, thy name is Kevin. My first bout with cancer was when I was 5 yrs old. I was just learning to read and was leafing through Life Magazine. I saw a poster-board titled, "The Seven Deadly Signs of Cancer." A few days prior I had noticed a lump near my nipple. When I read The Seven

Rytary update
I’m closer to finding a dose/schedule that works for me. Hopefully this will help others who are still trying to find their way, Rytary was allowing me to eat three meals, a big plus since I’m no longer losing weight, gained a few pounds. But I was having a horrible afternoon slump, and it was making

A gentle slow trot
We’ll after Thursdays run I was a bit cautious today but decided to try out my heel. I’d been doing gentle exercises to try to relax my tendons and had used some brufen gel to reduce any swelling or inflammation. So all felt ok. I went off slowly for my warm up walk and then set off at a slow pace.

Sinemet vs. Rytary
Does anyone have experience with these? How does Sinemet perform vs. Rotary. Which do you prefer and why. My neurologist recommended the latter, but I'm not so sure that's the best choice. Would love your opinions.

Rytary update
I may be getting close to going back to regular C/L . Rytary does give me longer ON times, which allow me to eat three times per day. I had lost 20 lbs last year, and had been able to slow the weight loss, but not stop it entirely. Now I’ve gained a couple of pounds. BUT. I had finally stabilized

Rytary… might stop??
After 6 days the following impressions… I do get about an hour longer ON per dose. I was on a four hour cycle with IR, with about 2-3.5 ON per dose, depending on food. Rytary gives me 4 hour ON on a 5 hour dose cycle, BUT, the afternoon slump around 3 pm (halfway between doses, but when endogenous

Rytary switching, tips from your success?
My MDS has recommended switching to Rytary. She says "most" people do better on Rytary. I have been taking one 25/100 immediate release and one 25/100 Continuous release generic C/L at 8, 12, 3:30-4ish and 7:30ish. I also have added citicoline. I get wearing off at about the 3-3.5 hour mark, and I do

Tildiem retard/diltiazem question
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

Sweat every day
~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

rytary
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

Lewy body disease
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

Rytary and new side effect
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?
