Dyskenesia treatments
My mother has PD and has been taking levadopa for over 10 years She is now experiencing problems with
dyskinesia
. I would like to find tips from patients who have found ways of reducing the symptoms of this.

Parsing Parkinson's
New things:
dyskinesia
(to a small extent), tremor (increased slightly). I wondered if the
dyskinesia
and tremor reflected too much dopamine in my system so, with the agreement of my doctor, I cut back my Sinemet from 4.5 tablets per day to 4.0.

Dyskinesia
The last few days I have had
dyskinesia
. I am going to my neurologist tomorrow. I probably shouldn't have changed my dosage so much without consulting him. Will the
dyskinesia
get better if I reduce the dosage? I am still trying to work.

Liquid Sinemet
My doctor prescribed me to take Sinemet and Comtan every 2 hours, but I am afraid to have
dyskinesia
because it just sinemet over 13 pills + sinemet ER at night. I already have
dyskinesia
, but not all the time. I understand that to take every 2 hours sinemet it no time to have a meal.

Tips for controlling dyskinesias and pain
Good morning.. I was diagnosed 5 yes ago, started on Sinemet 100/25 1 tab every 8 hours. I am now up to 2 tabs every 3 hrs. I have had dyskinesias for about 6 months which are new. I'm also experiencing increased pain in joints and muscle..I was just wondering how other people manage these symptoms?

amantadine, norepinephrine, locus coeruleus, methylphenidate (Ritalin), ceruleus
In 2012 I was taking 3 25/100 of c/l per day and was developing tiredness. A neurologist suggested adding amantadine 2 per day of 100 mg. Within hours of taking the first amantadine, my walking had improved dramatically. I noticed and several neighbors noticed. At least

CL and dyskinesia
I have a family member who is petrified that he will get
dyskinesia
if he takes CL for a long time...so He has gradually stopped taking CL and is trying Azilect. Anyone have any words of wisdom for us?

More off time and freezing
Hi Everyone, My friend was diagnosed nearly 3 years ago and has been doing well until recently. She takes Sinemet 25/100mg four times a day along with 1 x Mirapex. She`s having more problems during her off time between Sinemet doses and has started to freeze on occasions which has caused her great concern

DBS DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK
My son, 56, diagnosed 7 years ago, suffered terribly with violent tremors and wild
dyskinesia
for the past few years. He was completely housebound, mostly bedridden, and suffered broken bones in dyskinetic falls.

Liquefy your L-dopa
The following method for liquefying L-dopa has been shown to have faster on time with less
dyskinesia
. It is perfectly safe and as it will be shown, has been used with children with amblyopia (lazy eye).

Is atelectasis a common problem with people who have bronchiectasis and have primary ciliary dyskinesia?
I was told by my doctor that I had atelectasis which was observed on a chest x-ray located in the area where I had past pneumonia when I was pregnant with my daughter. I don't know what this means to my health or the treatment for atelectasis or if atelectasis is a permeant thing for me now. I will

Seeking Comments From those combining Mucuna Pruriens (MC) with their Sinemet (C/L)
When combining MC w/C/L how does that seem to work best for you? I believe there must be a better way than I have done so far. I have taken them at the same time and independently and one awhile before the other in both directions. I've taken MP with water, juice, hot pineapple juice as a hot beverage
