PROBLEMS WITH FREEZING
I'm 78 years old and was diagnosed with PD 6 years ago. Freezing has been the main symptom I've dealt with and now It's to the point now where I can't move unless I take weight off one side by putting pressure on my walker. That gets me going but it's very hard on my shoulders because I have to continue

Shortness of breath in PD “respiratory dyskinesia”
Shortness of breath can have many causes, but someone with Parkinson’s disease has an unusual possibility, called “respiratory dyskinesia” (which just means “abnormal movement of the muscles of breathing”). This is an involuntary rapid breathing that causes distress, and it usually happens an hour after

Relationship Between Levodopa and Dyskinesias and How Thiamine Can Help
I think the main concern for everybody with PD is to know the truth about relationship between long-term use of Levodopa and Dyskinesias and how Thiamine protocol can help. Dr Costantini has told me that people who are taking Sinemet with Thiamine WILL NOT develop Dyskinesia even in long-term use. I

Post DBS Surgery
It has now been five months since my DBS surgery. My brain is healing, the proof of which is that I am again reducing my meds. It is a balancing act - I increase what the Medtronic device is providing and decrease meds. My meds at this time are 1 extended release 25/100 sinemet and 1/4 regular relelase

Travelling issue
Hi PWP I am an Australian travelling at present in the USA and sent some baggage to my next destination. I will not get there for another week. I realised that I sent my Madopar 250 (3 x daily) with the baggage by mistake. I organised an MD visit and there is no Madopar in the USA. I have been given

Xadago and mucuna pruriens
My neurologist has prescribed me the MAOB inhibitor Xadago for the purpose of prolonging my ‘ON’ time on Sinemet Plus. I wonder if Xadago would work the same way with mucuna pruriens?

My visit to Dr. Costantini in Italy
Finding myself in Rome with an extra day to explore, I came upon a plan to make a visit to Viterbo, home of Dr. Costantini and the B1 treatment. This post will focus only on the trip logistics for anyone else planning a visit. First, what's not to like about Italy? Pasta, pizza and good red wine amongst

Sinemet, Mucuna Pruriens & positive experience with Ashwaghanda Root: Is the dosage of MP causing the problems: leg freezing etc.
I was diagnosed with Parkinsons age 63 1.5 yrs ago Rx Sinemex (carb/levo 25-100mg. 4 tabs a day). At first all was well; then a few months ago I started to have issues, especially deep fatigue 24/7 that was exhausting. I was so tired! Other problems as well. So I decided to try going with Mucuna Pruriens

Mucuna Pruriens
I am looking to hear from anyone who has been using the velvet bean as a source of naturally occurring source of dopamine. I was on Sinemet for about 4 years and developed dyskinesia and had to consider other options. After trying a few other medications that also came with almost immediate side effects
