I can't get rid of my right hand tremor
I was diagnosed two years ago and I did not take any medication except HDT which helped a lot except the tremor. Four month ago I started C/L 3x100/25 per day to help the tremor but without luck. In March I saw my neuro who gave me amantadine 3x100 and doubled the C/L. I started amantadine 2x100mg/day

Amantadine or Mirapex?? I’ve noticed that my C/L 25/100 is only lasting 2hrs afterwards am like in slow motion....
On my last visit to my neurologist she said I had a lot
dyskinesia
so she added amantadine. I don’t want to take DA’s but if one of them is going to help with tremor I will take it. If anyone that’s on any of this meds and is helping please share your experience. Thank you 😊

To Go or Not to Go - plea for community help
I am afraid of embarrassment and making a fool of myself if I start tremoring or develop dystonia or
dyskinesia
. I am still adjusting to Rytary , so things are still unpredictable. I vacillate between going and not going.

Annual neurological check
This morning I made the annual neurological check from my PD diagnosis of May 2018. The therapy was 2 tablet Sinemet 100+25 mg. per day. Compared to the previous control, has been confirmed the substantial stability of the general situation. Pull test ok, cognitive tests ok, engine tests ok, balance

Which would you rather have? Violent dyskinesia or go back to less L-dopa? Are there other options? Can we thread the needle and avoid both?
I'm thinking of reducing to avoid developing
, or at least put it off, Do you have a better solution?

Matcha green tea
Hi everyone! For those of you mixing green tea with your mucuna I attached a link for Japanese organically-grown matcha green tea. With matcha you drink the entire ground up leaf it has more egcg in it then the steeping kind. Nutrivitashop sells the l-dopa as well as the green tea. I guess my point is

L Dopa, the drug which makes Parkinson's worse?
What do you think? From my negative experience of Sinemet, I surmise that it brings some initial improvement in movement issues along with some devastating side effects. It wears off, so more is taken, and after a while dyskinesias can occur solely because of the drug. Also 'on - off' can occur due to

HDT and dyskinesia
A friend of mine and a PWP has severe
dyskinesia
and I was wondering if the high dose thiamine protocol would help her? I understand that HDT is meant to prevent developing
dyskinesia
but I'm not sure if it helps decrease the movements once you have it.

I need to know if I can take it between my C/L 25/100 every three hours due to the fact that it only last two hours, is Amantadine a Dopamine Agonist? I’m also starting Amantadine, anyone on it for tremor? Good results? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks 🙏🏽
