Opicapone
My husband was given Opicapone about 18 months ago but stopped taking it for some reason. He started taking it again just over a month ago. He found immediate improvement with it eg. not having to go to the toilet so often during the night but he is finding it difficult to get the correct dose. It does

Love em moments
For those who don’t know me I’m a caregiver for my husband who has been diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia, not CBD as initially thought. We had an appointment today at Cleveland Clinic and I asked about a possible diagnosis of Multiple Symptom Atrophy. For several reasons that I can’t repeat right now

Thumbs up for Nilotinib - Phase II Trials
Those of you who are following clinical trials for repurposed drugs that offer potential to slow or halt the progression of PD will no doubt recall the highly favorable reports from the Phase I trial of Nilotinib that was done at Georgetown University and was reported on in October of 2015. You will

Optimizing levodopa
Hi Parkie. You should try a more natural source of levodopa: mucuna pruriens is a seed that comes as powder or in capsules. I take 6 g 3 times a day, mixed in with apple or orange juice (no dairy product s). At first it helps to take -1 capsule of green tea extract in the AM. You can also take

Using natural carbidopa with mucuna
Has anyone experience of this? We tried a protocol of vit c plus several other nutritional supplements which was supposed to mimic carbidopa, but for my husband there wasn't any difference in how long the mucuna lasted. We, ve been using mucuna for 2+yrs, but now we, re taking large amounts of it,

Trying Sinemet
Amazing how you can get different diagnosis from a new neurologist and start down a new treatment path with optimism. This neurologist is all for Carbidopa Levadopa and CBD and Cannabis. We saw some improvement in stiffness and increases in sleepiness and drooling. Apparently the concept that melanoma

Switching to L-dopa from macuna, from cardopa/levadopa.
Trial on myself, I was trying Barlows 40% Pure l-dopa, worked good and now using 100%pure l-dopa from NutriVita which is very potent, I use just a pinch of the powder in water, it only last for 2 hours, and using Quercetin/ Bromelain I was hoping it would help to lengthen the l-dopa but I really don't

I finished my documentary...
I hope everyone on HU is doing well. For the last several years I have been abscent from HU because I worked on and completed a documentary about the early 20th century disease, encephalitis lethargica. If you ever watched the movie 'Awakenings', featuring Robin Williams and Robert DeNiro, you know
