Any advice about weaning off of levodopa and starting amantadine.
I have developed
dyskinesia
and doctors tried reducing levodopa thinking I was getting too much but
dyskinesia
persisted.

Steroids to treat Parkinson's
My Neurologist admitted me into the hospital because Parkinson's had me shaking with
dyskinesia
and I had Dystonia unable to move at the same time. They gave me a steroid through an IV for 5 days and it has helped, but I feel dizzy and woozy

DBS Surgery #2, a personal essay
Not tremors, I can deal with tremors, they’re annoying but not painful; not
dyskinesia
, the herky jerky motions we people with Parkinson’s live with, again, annoying but not generally painful.

Lactobacillus and Levodopa
Has anyone seen the uTube video re the Gastro Intestinal doctor who advised against taking probiotics because of the adverse action of lactobacillus on Levodopa? I saw it recently and can't find it now - I am interested in reading further about the lactobacillus impact on Levodopa. I would appreciate

Dopamine plays a crucial role in motor coordination, memory, and cognition; its decrease in PD leads to
dyskinesia
, cognitive deficits, and depression. In addition, the formation of alpha-synuclein protein aggregates (Lewy bodies) causes further damage to the CNS.

Is the "tetrahydrofurfury disulfide in (TTFD)" a B1 with a "DMSO" attached?
*** I ended up with High Blood Pressure taking TTFD. I no longer take TTFD. Based on my experience, I would not recommend TTFD. *** I am not into chemistry. Asked another way: Did Japanese Researchers in 1951 attach a DSMO to a B1 to make it more absorbable to cure B
eriberi or were they trying to

Sinemet what is normal dose
MDS doesn’t want to increase Sinemet because I have
dyskinesia
as it is and people might notice my involuntary hand movements and I might be embarrassed. I would rather feel better during off times and not worry that what others think. I’m 138 pounds, normal BMI.

Olanzipine withdrawal
Anyway I hate taking the olanzipine, I'm so scared of the side effects, particularly the risk of tardive
dyskinesia
. I have put on weight too. I'm scaring myself silly googling about all the withdrawal problems. I've only ever taken 3.75mg but have reduced to 2.5mg 3 weeks ago.

Getting the Most Out of Medications
(Note: It can be helpful for your doctor to know exactly when you’re experiencing your on and off times, as well as
dyskinesia
if you experience that, so that he or she may better prescribe your daily meds regimen.

Promoting Sirtuins is the target, NAD+ is the fuel
Known as the “guardians of genomes,” sirtuins are genes that protect organisms, from plants to mammals, against deterioration and diseases. When the genes sense the body is under physical stress, such as exercising or hunger, it sends out troops to defend the body. Sirtuins sustain genome integrity,

Encouraging Stem Cell Trial Results
The same was true for % ON-Time without
dyskinesia
, which is the time during the day when levodopa medication is performing optimally without
dyskinesia
. The % ON-Time increased an average of 42% above the initial evaluation at 12 months post-transplantation in the second cohort.

How I went from 13 to 4 a day (Carbidopa 25/Levodopa 100)?
Also, it is widely accepted that there is a multitude of side effects of Carbidopa /Levodopa, one being
dyskinesia
(1).
And, does Vagus Nerve somehow carry dopamine to Brain.
1. Dyskinesias are involuntary, erratic, writhing movements of the face, arms, legs or trunk.
