Parkinsons caused by sugar?
Sugars…. If i was told i had to confirm what it is today id say sugars. Its like diabetes but specifically in the brain behind the blood brain barrier. Why sugar? High link to diabetes, causes high inflammation in both brain & gut, sugar effects dopamine levels which are misbalanced, my personal bad

Restless Arm Syndrome unresponsive to DA used as diagnostic tool
An interesting article about diagnosis of Restless Arm Syndrome, where the patient did NOT respond to dopamine agonist treatment used as a diagnostic tool. The patient did respond fully to gabapentinoids. I must remember this when responding to those who are struggling to get a diagnosis. https://scholar.google.com

Dealing with painful dopamine agonist withdrawal: advice needed
Those of you that have read my posts know that I'm experiencing an extremely difficult dopamine agonist withdrawal syndrom (DAWS). Now I'm at 60% of my initial 2mg dose of Neupro, i.e 1.2mg. I also take 300mg of pregabaline, 100mg of tradonal extended release, 0.5mg of clonazepan, and 0.125mg of alprazolam

Exercise & PD
I have recently been walking regularly over the last month and my gait has improved massively. Diagnosed 14 years. I have also read numerous posts/tweets/blogs and research regarding the benefits of exercise and PD. Some people claim to have reversed the symptoms or at least plateaued and are quite well-known

Free of Dopamine Agonist But ...
Today, with the help of Buprenorphine, I am about 6 weeks free of Neupro. It is no exaggeration to say that I have not slept consistently this well for 30 years. It is absolutely a miracle. I could not be more thankful for the help I have received here that has gotten me to this place. However, there

Have any one heard or tried L-Tyrosine ?
My son bought L-Tyrosine for me, and said it helps PD by research, it can help you make dopamine . It is a kind of Amino Acid. My doctor said that you can try it, but, should not take it with levodopa the same time, should take it apart from levodopa. Has someone tried it ?

supplements to help DA withdrawal
I am wondering if anyone has used natural supplements like amino acids to increase dopamine while tapering off Pramaprexole? I have wondered if it would help with the decrease in dopamine while tapering. Also has anyone used Modafinil with any luck in helping energy and mood?

Gabapentin
I've suffered with rls for over 30 years which has gradually got worse and worse. I'm now 74. After taking dopamine agonists for years, then tramadol, codeine and trying Kratom nothing was working and my doctor and neurologist would and could not prescribe anything else. In the past I had tried Pregabalin
