Intermittent RLS: why carbidopa/levodopa????
Can anyone enlighten me as to why the Mayo Clinic suggests carbidopa/levodopa (sinemet) as prn therapy as opposed to ropinorole/pramipexole? I used to have persistent RLS (managed with ropinorole) which thankfully stopped after I stopped my SSRI. Now it’s intermittent and I can’t understand why I should

Prebiotic Probiotic Antibiotic... What's the deal?
Ok... Antibiotic is just added to the post title for rhyming. This post is not about antibiotic. So what is this about? Bacillus Subtilis PXN21 beneficial for PD... And Bio-Kult sells out. Thankfully pvw2 pointed out that any Subtilis strain works L. Plantarum PS128 beneficial for PD... And

Pee problems
Lately my hypochondria has been in over-drive. I have incontinence. That is, when I feel like I'm done , and zip -up, I shortly see fluid has soaked into my denims. I use Myrbetriq, a drug to lessen bladder spasms. It works, that is, when I'm done I don't feel the urge to continue peeing

Motion Sickness
At the ripe old age of 77, I will be taking my first cruise this summer with my children and grandchildren. I'm trying to be prepared for anything so I asked my doctor about medications for motion sickness. He said I would not be able to use the patch that is worn behind the ear because it can cause

Anxiety & urine problems
I’ve posted a few times on this wonderful forum about problems with stress & anxiety. A question I’ve never asked concerns bladder Incontinence. When I took diazepam, I had no problems. However recently I’ve found that if I wake up in the morning & the toilet is being used, I panic & rush to go downstairs
