Dopamine vs Dopamine agonist. May someone explain the technical mechanism of action in the brain? Pros/Cons of these therapy methods?
Effectiveness of each method and how it compares. What about side effects? Which one is less harmful?

On/Off period caused by Sinemet. Anyone taking dopamine agonist and/or MAO inhibitors experience on/offs?
I found in the web an interesting info about a disclaimer contained in the package insert of Sinemet distributed in Australia. It warns as a “side effect the on/off periods may occur to some people after one year use where people may lose their ability to move from minutes to hours then can move again

The Safety of Being a Social Smoker
Courtesy of Very Well. Most of us know someone who only smokes when they go out drinking with friends, or occasionally in some other social setting. It takes them a month to go through a pack of cigarettes, and they don't seem to crave cigarettes at other times. Unlike light smokers, who smoke 10 or

Dopamine agonist withdrawal
Hello to all, I am looking for advice, support and somewhere to whine. I wrote before as I have got off a daily dose of SR pramipexole .75 mg and 1 tab sinemet 100/25. I took 6 weeks to do it . My dr wanted me to do it more quickly but I did not, having struggled through the whole misery once before

Bacteria in the brain
"The fecal microbiota (which is the gut microbiota obtained from feces) is different in people with different illnesses. People with Parkinson ’s have a different microbiota than people who don’t have it." "...an undergraduate student who was part of an honors program here at the University of Alabama

Surgery and depacote.
I was wondering if anyone has had a resection in the premotor area. If so can you share your experience. Also, just started Depakote and wondered what the maximum dosage is. Does anyone have any positive or negative experience with this med.

Parkinson’s PD switched to Functional Tremor FND
I’m a 49 year old man and 1 year ago, in 2018, I noticed a slight dominant-side resting tremor, arm and leg. It consistently got worse over 4 months, until I was diagnosed with Parkinson's by a movement specialist neurologist. Started carbi/levadopa to no effect. (Also tried a dozen different supplements

DAT scan
My husband was diagnosed years ago but has had a change of Neurologist and the new one wants a DAT scan done. It is to see how much dopamine there is in the brain. Has anyone else had this done ?? She couldn’t say if the findings would help so he is sceptical about having it done.

PD Mechanics: Cause of Resting Tremors
"Resting tremors are among the most noticeable features of Parkinson’s disease (PD). The tremors are believed to be caused by complex interactions between a number of factors. Alterations in the activity of several areas of the brain including the substantia nigra, the basal ganglia, and the thalamus

Switching off dopamine agonists to tramadol and lyrica
Just over a month tapering off the miaows and a bit of sinemet. Last night, none and had a dreadful night, as most of the others were too.

A Chocolate a Day Keeps Depression Away?
News Author: Megan Brooks; CME Author: Laurie Barclay, MD Clinical Context Accumulating evidence suggests that dietary factors, such as eating chocolate, may affect depressive symptoms.

It's fall, time again for Howard. We have dopamine in our brains however the key to unlock its use has been lost.
