current neurologist exam
My neurologist said
carbidopa
levodopa is not useful with tremors. He said its function is to get you moving. I am trying to post today's pull test video. Watch for it.

Sleeping like a baby...
He is on Levodopa/
carbidopa
with endicopone, but that's it. He has tried modafinil, concerta and caffeine pills all under neuro supervision, none do much, just make his tremor worse. He is trying to work part time, but I'm not sure this is do-able.

Depression and drugs
We are experimenting now with
carbidopa
-levodopa, to help with stiffness. This is an experiment because hubby’s DAT scan does not reveal Parkinson’s. We think he has Parkinsonism traits, but not Parkinson’s (CONFUSING!).

Trial for dopamine- responsive Dystonia?
More good news, I'm doing pretty well on
Carbidopa
- levodopa. Can't believe how much movement I've regained! I can see the other drivers on the express way!

Improving the Bio-availability of Levodopa
In the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, the DDC enzyme inhibitor
Carbidopa
, is co-administered with Levodopa, and a COMT enzyme inhibitor is also available to improve the bio-availability of Levodopa. What has this to do with Parkinson’s disease?

Skipping doses?
A week of January, and doses he’s missed along the way of the
Carbidopa
Levodopa. I’m beside myself. So I threw it all under the sink and opened the box he should be on right now. Is this purposeful? Inability? Stubbornness? Rant over.

Mucuna my natural protocol
There's an enzyme in green tea that aids in getting the mucuna across the blood-brain barrier similar to what the
Carbidopa
does. Here is my routine.

Medication not working
My husband was on
carbidopa
levodopa er by mylan and was doing well. After they were not able to manufacture since last year he had to switch to the sun product which is not working. His tremers are back, he is losing the ability to use the usage of his mobility more and more.

The journey of Levodopa inside the intestine.
It is the case of Tyrosine Decarboxylase which converts Levodopa in Dopamine despite the presence of
Carbidopa
wich is a decarboxylase inhibitor. Therefore I wonder if drinking a lot at the time of taking Levodopa may be some solution.

B-6, Methyl Folate and B-12
Even though he is on Levodopa/
Carbidopa
, I still hold to that "rule". Methyl Folate, B-9, is it safe or no? Vitamin B-12, I have heard a negative about it.

MMS DMSO for treatment of Parkinson's
He is 74 years old and took Madopar (Levodopa/
carbidopa
) for 6 month. Before the diagnose we saw that he might have Parkinson because he walked slowly with small steps(around10cm and close to the ground( around 10cm) -in contrast with his high speed walking before.

Too much Sinemet
First off, if you've seen one case of Parkinson's, you've seen one case of Parkinson's. In my wife's case,she experienced overdosing on Sinemet. She started by taking Mirapex when she was first diagnosed about 5 years ago. Even a small dosage was putting her to sleep for long periods of time. Her

Abnormal skin sensation
Wondering if this is PD or a possible side effect of the
carbidopa
? Any insight appreciated 😀!

Gou Teng helps with my tremors .
Parkinson’s progression can be slowed and symptoms managed with the drugs L-Dopa (Levodopa) and Sinemet (
Carbidopa
). L-Dopa is converted to dopamine in the brain, and Sinemet prevents L-Dopa from being broken down before it reaches the brain.

Myoclonus and Sleep Deprivation
Carbidopa
-Levodopa, my latest treatment drug, is now failing. I have given up on sleep in the wee hours to cleaning or lieing in bed in mental torment. These episodes give my AMN dire thoughts and self pity. And another day fraught with modification.

Vivid Dreams/Sleepwalking
I’m wondering if the above discussion (See @Roborn1’s recent post) about too much
carbidopa
/levodopa applies here also? The vivid dreams is becoming far more than a nuisance - it’s becoming dangerous! Has anyone else experienced vivid dreams?
