Is weight gain a Side effect of Madopar?
Last August I had
DBS
but still wound up on Sifrol And Sinemet. After a few months it was finally decided that I should wean myself off sifrol from 3 tabs a day to 3x1/2tabs a day finally down to 1/2 a tab a day.

DBS plans on hold due to possible nocebo effects... I'm too crazy for brain surgery.
I have recently been processed with off-on testing and neuro-psychologist eval for
DBS
. My neurologist stated that I need to see a psychiatrist before they will schedule the procedure due to my anxiety depression issues fearing that I may be disappointed by the outcome.

Constipation Considerations
I was even starting to think I'd better push for
DBS
so I could cut back on my meds before they cause me permanent bowel damage, even though my symptoms are mild and pretty controllable at this point.

How will I cope without meds in preparation for DBS assessment?
I am beginning the road to
DBS
and have my memory test things?? tomorrow. I am really worried about the assessment where I need to be off medication as I literally cannot move without meds.
