How much sinemet
I'm very worried. At the end of January they changed me from Stalene 125 ( 4 a day) to Sinemet 250 ( 3 a day, whole, half, whole other half) and Opicapona. With the Stalene I was losing strength and endurance, and I started to lose my balance, of which I also blame the Ryvotril and Trazadona. And the

Since I last wrote a lot has happened with me, and thank God, it’s mostly been encouraging. I’ll start with the Lyme Disease- I mentioned that

How I cope with RLS for 20 years
I believe I've had RLS since I was a child. I was diagnosed 20 years ago and given Sinemet 25/100. I take 1 to 3 at bedtime and it serves me well. I have had several doctors try to take me off this drug and have had me try numerous gourmet drugs and all had side effects that made it not worth it.

Can't seem to stop constant underarm odor
Hello, My wife has had PD for around four years. This strong underarm odor always returns in 1-2 days after a good cleaning. The anti-perspirant deodorants make no difference at all, because she very seldom, if ever, perspires/sweats. I've started using my Brut deodorant on her but that was no help either

Sinemet induced dementia
I was talking to a friend recently whose husband is a PwP. She said he had developed dementia from taking Sinemet for a long period of time, 20 years in his case. I had never heard of this before, and none of my doctors have mentioned it. Has anyone else heard about this?

Reducing Sinemet
I recently posted a question about reducing Sinemet doses do you see if there was anybody else out there who had done this successfully. Maybe I am an anomaly but I’ve been able to reduce from 6 pills a day to less than 2 over the past 10 years and some days I can manage on 1 pill. It’s taken a lot of

Is anyone elses hand functionally directly related to taking Sinemet (Kinson) and/or is anyone taking 12 or more tablets per day?
I was just wondering if anyone: 1. Experiences an almost instant “on”, “off” effect with their hand functionality when taking Sinemet/Kinson (ie 100 levodopa/25 carbidopa which I will call for the resot of this post as "Sinemet" ) and/or 2. has been taking, over a long period of time, equal to o

Mucuna sinemet equivalent?
We have successfully been reducing my dad's sinemet intake and replacing it with mucuna. We started off with the raw powder but for convenience sake, have switched to the now brand 15% capsules. I am just trying to figure out equivalent doses. Can anyone clarify? Based on my understanding, 1 tablet

Carbidopa in Sinemet very harmful.
I recently ran across a research study on the serious damage done by the carbidopa in Sinemet (generic = carbidopa levodopa). It is a documented cause of a striking increase in deaths in Parkinson’s sufferers since it was added to L-dopa (levodopa), and since people with RLS often are prescribed the

Would you call this a step towards "recovery" from PD?
My purpose in writing this is to get feedback on whether my experiences are similar to anyone else's and to get your opinion about where I stand now and where I might be going. I'm not claiming to be recovered, but if you read the rest of this rather long post, you'll see that my condition has improved
